American Kitchen Classic Texas Style Smoked Brisket Bbq - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 (8 -12 lb) beef brisket (You want the Packer's Cut, whole brisket, containing both the 'flat' and the 'point', untrimmed of f)
    1 tablespoon ground black pepper
    1 tablespoon white pepper
    1 tablespoon sugar
    2 teaspoons cayenne pepper
    2 tablespoons chili powder
    1 tablespoon cumin
    1 tablespoon garlic powder
    1 tablespoon brown sugar
    1 tablespoon ground oregano
    4 tablespoons paprika
    1 teaspoon dry mustard
    1 tablespoon celery salt
    1 tablespoon salt
    wood chips, to taste (any wood that loses it's leaves in the winter can be used for smoking. Pecan, mesquite, hickory and )
Preparation
    Thoroughly combine all dry rub ingredients. Rub mixture into the meat, wrap tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 8 hours or overnight. Store leftover mixture in an airtight jar or in freezer.
    Allow brisket to come to room temperature, and then arrange in a smoker. Put the brisket on the grill fat side up.
    You want a good steady low fire with a temperature between 200/225 degrees F at the meat level with cooking time at about 1 1/2 to 2 hours per pound. There is a ratio to the smoking - total cooking time = smoking time + last eight hours wrapped double in heavy-duty aluminum foil over a smokeless fire.
    Remove wrapped brisket from smoker and let stand for at least 15 minutes before opening and slicing. If necessary, you can throw this in an ice chest immediately after coming off the grill and it will stay \"Hot\" for several hours. Slice diagonally across the grain and trim off fat. Serve with American Kitchen Classic Texas Style BBQ Sauce - recipe #482550.
