Brisket deserves a second act - and this sandwich delivers. Spiceology Smoked Paprika and Cayenne anchor the basting marinade and BBQ sauce for a deeply smoky, layered build that is anything but an afterthought. Stack it high on a toasted bolillo with tangy escabeche and BBQ mayo, and suddenly leftovers are the main event.

Directions
blank
- Place brisket fat side up with the thicker side closest to the heat source. Wood should be in a separate smoker box or as indirect from the brisket as possible.
- We used Charcoal as our base and threw on a mix of mesquite and soaked hickory.
- Baste brisket with marinade every hour or so.
Try to maintain 250° F the whole time and remove brisket once the internal meat temperature reaches about 170° F. Wrap in parchment paper and rest.
