- Comments: Dave Rawles' smoked and grilled brisket represents the whole other world of barbecue brisket. A friend gave it to him while he was living in Houston, where barbecue brisket rules. "For those of us with smokers, this is even better when cooked on a smoker for several hrs, as opposed to a gas or possibly charcoal grill. When smoking any cut of meat, it's an all-day affair usually reserved for a weekend day, when you can place the meat on the smoker, then go about other activities, just checking on the smoker occasionally. I always make more of the rub than I need for the brisket, because it's excellent for use in blackening fish or possibly pork chops in butter in a cast-iron skillet."
