Brisket

(Approximate cooking time: 12-18 hours)

1 whole brisket (about 12 to 18 lbs.)
¼ cup MAK Mesquite Rub
1 Cup Beef Bullion (1 Cube in water)

Trim fat cap so it is even, but do not remove entirely. Trim down any pockets of
fat in meat. Lightly coat entire brisket with rub mixture. Start grill and adjust
setpoint temperature to 225 degrees. Preheat grill, approximately 10 minutes.
Place brisket on grill, fat side up. Insert meat probe into brisket in a horizontal
fashion. Plug probe into Pellet Boss® control and program meat thermometer
alarm for 165 degrees. Close lid and cook approximately 7-9 hours until internal
temperature reaches 165 degrees. Remove brisket from grill and place in foil.
Add 1 cup heated beef bullion. Seal tightly, place back on grill, and set grill
temperature to 250 degrees. Insert meat probe and program alarm for 195
degrees. Cook for approximately 1 to 3 hours until internal temperature reaches
195. Remove from grill and allow to rest for 15 minutes. Slice against the grain in
1/4-inch slices.

Note: Brisket cannot be cooked quickly. It is the toughest cut on the cow
and requires ample cooking time for the meat to become tender. The
approximate cooking time is 12-18 hours depending on the weight of your
brisket. This recipe calls for a WHOLE BRISKET.

NOTE: You may use any of the 3 User Programs on the Pellet Boss® to
automatically cook your favorite MAK GRILL recipes. Please refer to the
instructions found in the front of the cookbook.
