Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Begin by selecting a USDA Choice or Prime whole brisket, ideally with good marbling. Trim any excessive fat.
  2. Generously apply your Texas-Style Brisket Rub all over the brisket. Allow to sit for at least 30 minutes.
  3. Preheat your oven to a steady 250°F (121°C) and prepare a roasting pan with a rack.
  4. Carefully place the brisket on the rack, fat side up. Roast for approximately 1 hour per pound.
  5. Once the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C), wrap the brisket tightly in foil.
  6. Let the brisket rest for at least 30 minutes after cooking to redistribute juices.
  7. Slice the brisket against the grain into thick or thin pieces and serve warm.
