3. Slice the brisket against the grain and serve with the rich sauce spooned over the top.

Tips for a Perfect Beef Brisket

1. Marinate Overnight: For even deeper flavor, rub the spice blend onto the brisket and refrigerate overnight before cooking.
2. Use a Meat Thermometer: Ensure the internal temperature of the brisket reaches 190°F (88°C) for optimal tenderness.
3. Make It Ahead: This dish tastes even better the next day as the flavors have more time to meld.
4. Adjust Spice Levels: For a milder dish, reduce or omit the cayenne pepper.
