Discover the Ultimate Texas Style Brisket Recipe with Kosmos Q: A Step-by-Step Guide

Are you looking for the perfect brisket recipe that will make you feel like you’re in Texas without leaving your home? Look no further than Kosmos Q’s Ultimate Texas Style brisket recipe! In this step-by-step guide, we’ll walk you through the process of creating a mouthwatering brisket in your own kitchen.

Introduction

Before we dive into the recipe itself, let’s talk about what makes Texas Style brisket so unique. Texas Style brisket is all about low and slow cooking, which means that the meat is cooked at a low temperature for a long period of time. This method allows the brisket to absorb as much flavor as possible while also becoming tender and juicy. Our recipe uses a 13-16 lb Packer brisket, mustard, BBQ rubs, and beer to create the perfect balance of flavor.

Ingredients

• 13-16 lb Packer brisket
• Yellow mustard
• Kosmos Q Cow Cover BBQ Rub
• Kosmos Q Texas Beef Rub
• Beef broth
• Beer

Step-by-Step Guide

1. Trim the brisket. Start by trimming the brisket and removing any fat kernels to ensure even cooking.
2. Apply the mustard. Slather a generous amount of yellow mustard all over the brisket to help the seasoning stick.
3. Season the brisket. Apply Kosmos Q Cow Cover BBQ Rub and Texas Beef Rub all over the brisket. Make sure to rub it in evenly.
4. Start cooking the brisket. Place the brisket fat-side-down on a pellet grill or smoker set to 225°F. Cook the brisket until it reaches an internal temperature of 160°F, which should take approximately 3-4 hours.
5. Wrap the brisket. When the brisket reaches 160°F, wrap it tightly with butcher paper or aluminum foil. Pour in a mixture of beef broth and beer to help accelerate the cooking process.
6. Continue cooking. Place the wrapped brisket back on the grill or smoker and continue cooking until it reaches an internal temperature of 200°F, which should take approximately 6-8 more hours.
7. Rest the brisket. Once the brisket hits 200°F, remove it from the grill or smoker and let it rest for 30 minutes before slicing across the grain.

Personalization

One of the great things about this recipe is that it can be personalized to suit your preferences. If you like your brisket more spicy, consider adding some cayenne pepper to the seasoning. If you prefer a sweeter flavor, add some brown sugar. This recipe is totally customizable, so have fun with it and make it your own!

FAQ
