Equipment

  • 1 Gas grill

Ingredients
  

  • 5 lbs Beef Brisket
  • ¼ cup Apple cider vinegar
  • 3 tbsp Cumin
  • 3 tbsp Salt
  • 3 tbsp Garlic powder
  • 2 tbsp Cane sugar
  • 1 tbsp Black Pepper
  • 1 ½ tbsp Paprika
  • 1 tbsp Ground oregano
  • 8 whole Cloves

Instructions
 

  • Place the brisket in a baking dish and pour apple cider vinegar over it, coating all sides for proper marination.
  • Rub both sides with cumin, salt, pepper, garlic, oregano, paprika, and cloves.
  • Marinate the brisket in the fridge, ideally overnight. If short on time, at least 1–2 hours is fine.
  • Preheat your gas grill to high heat.
  • Sear the brisket on the grill for 20 minutes per side to lock in the juices.
  • Reduce the heat to 400 ºF for indirect cooking. Cover the brisket with aluminum foil
  • Cook for 3 hours. Then flip it and cook for another 2 hours.
  • Remove the brisket from the grill, baste it with its juices, and cover again with foil. Let it rest for 30–45 minutes to redistribute juices.
  • Slice the brisket against the grain and serve with barbecue sauce, corn, and salad.

Notes

  • Marinate the brisket at least 4 hours or overnight for maximum flavor.
  • Use a meat thermometer: target 195–205 ºF for tender, juicy meat.
  • Sear before slow cooking to lock in juices.
  • Leftovers keep 3 days in the fridge or 2 months frozen.
  • Serve with coleslaw, roasted corn, mashed potatoes, or tortillas for a Mexican twist.
  • Let the brisket rest 30–45 minutes before slicing to redistribute juices.
