Texans' Beef Brisket

Hungry for barbecue? Try beef brisket that's seasoned with a dry rub, smoked for hours, and served with a beer sauce.

Ingredients
  • 6 to 8 mesquite, hickory, or pecan wood chunks
  • 1 recipe Vinegar Mop Sauce
  • 1 3- to 3-1/2-pound fresh beef brisket
  • 2 teaspoons seasoned salt
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon garlic pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 recipe Spicy Beer Sauce
  • 12 kaiser rolls, split and toasted (optional)
Directions
  • At least 1 hour before smoke cooking, soak wood chunks in enough water to cover. Drain before using.
  • Prepare Vinegar Mop Sauce; set aside. Trim fat from meat. For rub, in a small bowl combine seasoned salt, paprika, chili powder, garlic pepper, and cumin. Sprinkle mixture evenly over meat; rub in with your fingers.
  • In a smoker arrange preheated coals, drained wood chunks, and water pan according to the manufacturer's directions. Pour water into pan. Place meat on grill rack over water pan. Cover; smoke for 5 to 6 hours or until meat is tender, brushing occasionally with Vinegar Mop Sauce during the last hour of smoking. Add additional coals and water as needed to maintain temperature and moisture.
  • To serve, thinly slice meat across the grain. Serve meat with Spicy Beer Sauce. If desired, serve meat and sauce in Kaiser rolls. Makes 12 servings.
  • Vinegar Mop Sauce: In a small bowl stir together 1/4 cup beer, 4 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce, 1 tablespoon cooking oil, 1 tablespoon vinegar, 1/2 teaspoon jalapeno mustard or other hot-style mustard, and a few dashes bottled hot pepper sauce.
  • Spicy Beer Sauce: In a medium saucepan melt 2 tablespoons butter or margarine. Add 3/4 cup chopped, seeded, peeled tomato (1 large); 1/2 cup chopped onion (1 medium); and 1/2 cup chopped green sweet pepper. Cook about 5 minutes or until onion is tender, stirring occasionally. Stir in 1 cup bottled chili sauce, 1/2 cup beer, 1/2 cup cider vinegar, 2 tablespoons brown sugar, 1 to 2 tablespoons chopped chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, 1-1/4 teaspoons black pepper, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Bring to boiling; reduce heat. Boil gently, uncovered, about 10 minutes or until reduced to about 2-1/4 cups.
