What's your favorite brisket rub?
Just S&P? Something with a little kick? Sugar or no?
I've read some here like the Dizzy Pig and Grub Rub products.
Home blends?

I've posted this in the past and it's worth a repeat ...
Here's a homemade dry rub that I got from "How to Grill" by Steven Raichlen. It's become a staple in my kitchen.
1/2 cup firmly packed brown sugar 1/4 cup sweet paprika 3 tablespoons black pepper 3 tablespoons course salt 1 tablespoon hickory smoked salt or more course salt (with a tiny bit of liquid smoke) 2 teaspoons garlic powder 2 teaspoons celery seeds 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
This makes about one cup but it's so good I double it when making a batch. I use a recycled parmesan cheese shaker top container to store it in. From the book ...
"OK, this is ground zero - the ur American barbeque rub. Use it on ribs, pork shoulders, chickens - anything you want to taste like American barbeque."
It's really good on steaks and xtra thick porkchops too.

My favorite is Dizzy Pig Cowlick and a light sprinkling of kosher salt, but Aaron Franklin has made a fortune cooking brisket and uses a 50/50 salt and pepper mix. It's best not to over complicate brisket IMO.

Mike that 50/50 rub is my Mom's brisket legacy we've been enjoying that for 50 yrs although she adds a few teaspoons of Worcestershire sauce and garlic salt.

After making brisket for some time I find less importance in the rub and more in the mop sauce and the smoking time and temps. Also fat cap down vs up. Any ole rub will work just fine and ods are you will never taste it but you will tase the mop sauce and the smoke.

Rudy's Rub from the various Rudy's BBQ joints across central TX. You can probably order it online. We put it on everything, but goes really well with brisket.

For some reason I like to keep brisket simple. Salt and pepper and inject with beef stock. I like a lot of smoke on my brisket.

I agree. After doing a lot of brisket I soon learned the folly of fretting over the rub. (go for it if it floats your boat) The mop sauce and smoke is where the flavor and tenderness comes from. Still its fun to experiment with various rubs while pretending it means something.
