Smoked Brisket with Traeger Rub

Ingredients:

• 1 (12-14 lb) whole brisket, trimmed

• As Needed Traeger Beef Rub

Instructions

1. Season the brisket liberally with Traeger Beef Rub, then wrap in plastic wrap. Transfer the wrapped brisket to the refrigerator and let sit for 12-24 hours.

2. When ready to cook, set the Traeger temperature to 225℉ and preheat with the lid closed for 15 minutes.

3. Unwrap the brisket. Insert the meat thermometer into the thickest part of the meat, then place directly on the grill grates, fat-side down. Close the lid and cook until internal temperature reaches 160℉, about 6 hours.

4. Remove the brisket from the grill and wrap in a double layer of heavy-duty aluminum foil.

5. Place the wrapped brisket back on the grill and cook until the internal temperature reaches 204℉, 3-4 hours more.

6. Remove the brisket from the grill and let rest in the foil for at least 30 minutes. Unwrap and slice against the grain. Enjoy!
