1 tbsp kosher salt, ¼ cup brown sugar, 1½ tbsp smoked paprika, 1 tbsp onion powder, 1 tbsp chili powder, ½ tbsp garlic powder, 1 tsp ground black pepper, 4 lb. brisket flat
If time allows, wrap the brisket in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for a couple hours or overnight.
At least 1 hour prior to cooking, bring the meat to room temperature and soak the wood chips in a bowl of water.
When ready to grill, fill the smoker box with wood chips. Place the smoker box on the grill. Preheat the grill to medium heat (about 350-375°F).
When ready to start grilling, turn the heat down to low between 225-250°F.
Place the brisket over indirect heat by turning off half of the burners on the grill and placing the brisket over the unlit burners.
Grill for about 4½ hours with the grill cover closed, or until the meat reaches a temperature of 200°F.
Allow the brisket to rest for at least 45 minutes prior to slicing.
