- BBQ Rub: Spices including paprika, brown sugar, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper
- BBQ Sauce: Your favorite brand or homemade
- Wood Chips: Hickory or oak for authentic smoke

Instructions
- Trim the brisket, leaving 1/4 inch of fat. Coat with BBQ rub and refrigerate for at least 4 hours.
- Preheat smoker to 250°F. Smoke the brisket for 6-8 hours until it reaches 165-175°F. Wrap in butcher paper and smoke until it hits 203°F.
- Let the brisket rest for 1 hour, then cube the point into 1-inch pieces.
- In a disposable aluminum pan, mix cubed brisket with butter, brown sugar, honey, and BBQ sauce. Return to smoker for 1-2 hours until caramelized and tender.
Notes
