Tips for cooking a brisket with a rub: rub down the brisket with a light coat of mustard first, and then apply the dry rub. For best results, wrap and refrigerate the brisket in foil for at least 12 hours before cooking.
You only need to apply this rub about twenty minutes before you begin cooking Note: You can use fresh oregano and basil for a stronger taste but if you use fresh it can’t be stored more than one or two days.
This rub recipe is great because it is made entirely from common kitchen spices. This makes it easy to whip up at the last minute or when you are short on time.
