Ingredients

  • 5 lbs beef chuck roast

For The Rub

  • ½ tablespoon Kosher Salt
  • ½ tablespoon Pepper
  • 1 tablespoon Paprika
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic
  • 1 teaspoon All Spice
  • ½ teaspoon Mustard Powder
  • ½ teaspoon Coriander
  • ½ teaspoon Cinnamon

For the Glaze

  • 12 oz Big Red Soda
  • cup BBQ sauce
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup

Instructions

For The Rub

  • Mix the dry spice seasonings in a mixing bowl and set aside.

Smoke the Beef

  • Season with beef rub generously and refrigerate overnight
  • Pre-Heat smoker to 225-250 degrees F and set it up for indirect heat cooking.
  • Add the beef and smoke until internal temp reaches 160 degrees. Cook time will vary and depend on size of the roast and average cooking temperature so using a meat thermometer is best bet.
  • Remove beef from smoker and wrap in butcher paper. Add back to the smoker and cook until temp reaches 190 degrees.
  • Remove and let rest at least 10 minutes.
  • Cut the brisket into thick slices and then cut those slices into cubes. I reserve any overly fatty ones and use to flavor other recipes like cabbage or beans.
  • Place the cubes in a square foil pan and set aside.
  • Heat the Big Red soda in a saucepan and reduce significantly (by at least half). Add the BBQ sauce and maple syrup mixing well.
  • Pour the sauce over the beef cubes then stir so all cubes are generously covered.
  • Return beef back to the smoker and cook at 250 degrees F. Cook until sauce is reduced and the burnt ends are sticky. This should be about 2 hours.
