BBQ Beef Brisket, Texas-Style
In Hill Country, believed by many to be the birthplace of real Texas barbecue, brisket is the only meat in town!. Texans would never think of brushing a slow-cooking brisket with sauce!. They might start with a peppery rub, but usually they let the wood and smoke do the job of turning a tough cut of beef into the most tender, flavorful meat in the world, or at least in Texas!.
For the Hill Country rub:
2 Tbs!. chili powder
1 Tbs!. sweet paprika
1 tsp!. ground oregano
1 tsp!. salt
1/2 tsp!. ground cumin
1/4 tsp!. ground cayenne pepper
1 whole beef brisket, 5 to 6 lb!., trimmed to
leave a thin layer of fat
3 to 4 handfuls hickory or mesquite chips,
soaked if using charcoal
For the beer barbecue sauce:
3 Tbs!. vegetable oil
1 yellow onion, chopped
1 celery stalk, chopped

2 garlic cloves, minced
2 Tbs!. chili powder
3 cups barbecue sauce

2 Tbs!. prepared horseradish
2 Tbs!. cider vinegar
2 Tbs!. Worcestershire sauce
To make the Hill Country rub, in a small dish, stir together the chili powder, paprika, oregano, salt, cumin and cayenne!. Sprinkle the mixture evenly on all sides of the brisket, patting and rubbing it into the meat!. Tightly wrap the meat in a large piece of heavy-duty aluminum foil!. Let the meat stand at room temperature for at least 15 minutes, or cover and refrigerate for up to 24 hours before grilling!. If refrigerated, remove the brisket from the refrigerator at least 30 minutes before grilling!.
Prepare a charcoal or gas grill for indirect grilling over medium-low heat!.
For a charcoal grill: Place a drip pan half full of water on the center of the fire bed!. Sprinkle the wood chips on the coals!. Place the foil-wrapped meat on the grill rack over the drip pan!.
