Experience the heart of Texas barbecue with the Smoke Chops Texas Brisket, a true masterpiece for any pitmaster. This recipe transforms a full beef brisket into a melt-in-your-mouth delight, featuring a simple yet robust rub of kosher salt, coarse black pepper, and garlic powder. Smoked low and slow at 250°F, the brisket is carefully monitored to reach an internal temperature of 165°F before being wrapped in butcher paper to lock in juices, then smoked further to a perfect 202°F. After a rest of at least 60 minutes, this brisket is sliced to showcase its tender flat and flavorful point, making it an ideal centerpiece for any gathering. Fire up your smoker and savor the authentic taste of Texas tradition!
