I have the yard mowed and all the drive trimmed. The brisket is smoked and a rub applied. It is now residing in the fridge till Memorial Day to let the rub penetrate. Then we heat it in the oven wrapped in foil. The Bronco is loaded with urns and flowers for tomorrow when after church we will journey about 100 miles to my family grave spot where we will decorate. Busy weekend.

Well, first of all smoke it first otherwise the rub prevents the rub from penetrating. Then I start with brown sugar, add a good vinegar, salt, pepper, garlic powder, celery seed, red pepper flakes, mustard, what am I forgetting? I don't measure, just add ingredients to suit my taste.
After smoking I apply the rub and wrap the brisket in foil and refrig overnight. Then 3 hours in the oven at low heat and serve.
