Bar-B-Q Brisket Recipe

1 brisket -- nose off or flat

-- 3 to 4 pounds 1/4 cup Head Country Seasoning

Head Country Bar-B-Q Sauce

Ask your butcher for this particular cut of meat rather than using the fattier and much bigger packer trim brisket. Generously season the brisket with the Head Country Seasoning. Leave the fat cap intact and season it as well. Let marinate a minumum of one hour or overnight. Build a fire with good quality charcoal and well seasoned pecan wood. Let burn at least 30 minutes to burn off the lighter fluid fumes and start a good bed of coals. Place brisket away from direct heat and cook 3 hours at 250 degrees. After three hours wrap brisket securely in heavy aluminum foil. Baste with Head Country Bar-B-Q Sauce. Continue cooking for an additional 3 hours at approximately 325 to 350 degrees to tenderize until thermometer registers an internal temperature of 180 degrees. To serve remove fat cap and slice across the grain for the tenderest portions. Serve with Head Country Bar-B-Q Sauce.
