Total Time

8 Hours 10 Minutes

Yields

6 Servings

Ingredients

• Salsa
• Cilantro
• White onion
• 1 tbsp of cumin
• 12 small flour tortillas
• 2 tsp of ground coriander
• 1 tbsp of smoked paprika
• 2 tbsp of coarse kosher salt
• 2 tbsp of coarse black pepper
• 1 Creekstone prime Brisket flat fat trimmed to ¼ inch

Ingredients for Marinade

• 2 cups water
• 1 tsp beef base
• 1 tbsp soy sauce
• 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce

Directions

• Fire up the smoker to 225°F (107°C). While it preheats, prepare brisket marinade.
• Heat up a small saucepan over medium heat. Combine all injection marinade ingredients until fully dissolved.
• Place the brisket in a shallow baking tray.
• Load meat injector with marinade. Insert injector perpendicular to the meat grain direction. Inject in a grid pattern across the meat, with an inch between each hole. Save half of the marinade to use later.
• Mix all rub ingredients (salt, pepper, paprika, cumin, coriander) in a small bowl.
• Apply liberally to meat, covering all sides in an even coat.
• Place the brisket in the smoker, fat-side down on the grates—smoke for six hours.
• Remove the brisket from the smoker and place it on a sheet of aluminum foil.
• Drizzle the remainder of the injection marinade over the meat.
• Wrap brisket tightly in foil, eliminating any pockets of air. Double wrap for good measure.
• Increase cooking temperature to 275°F-300°F (135°C-149°C). Place wrapped brisket back on smoker grates. Smoke for 1-2 more hours.
• Check on brisket. Insert a meat probe into the beef. Look for little resistance and an internal temperature of 210°F (99°C).
• Remove from smoker. Leave loosely wrapped and rest for 20-30 minutes.
• Slice the brisket perpendicular to muscle fiber direction into thin strips. Slice each strip into small chunks.
• Transfer strips back to foil and allow to soak up remaining juices and marinade.
• Serve in preheated tacos with your choice of filling or garnish with cilantro, white onion, and salsa.
