BRISKETPosted on Friday, July 20th, 2018 |
Brisket is a BBQ classic but it can be tricky to perfect. Cooking brisket requires technique; but, lucky for you Big Poppa’s Brisket recipe keeps it simple.
Big Poppa is all about flavor, so he injects his brisket with Big Poppa Smokers Cattle Prod Beef Injection and seasons with Big Poppa Smokers Cash Cow Beef Rub alongside Money BBQ rub. These 3 products provide brisket with an extra beefy flavor as well as help retain moisture in the brisket.
Big Poppa has cooked brisket in dozens of barbecue competitions and in his backyard. With a nod to authentic competition BBQ brisket, while still honoring more familiar backyard brisket flavors; this easy brisket recipe will give you the best of both (barbecue) worlds.
