Equipment

  • Meat injector
  • Stainless steel grid pattern
  • Pellet grill
  • Kitchen syringe

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups beef broth
  • 2 cups water
  • 2 tablespoons dry rub such as Traeger Coffee Rub
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable protein
  • 1 tablespoon monosodium glutamate MSG
  • 2 tablespoons corn protein
  • 1 tablespoon partially hydrogenated vegetable oil
  • 1 tablespoon sodium phosphate
  • 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 cup pineapple juice
  • 1/4 cup beef base
  • 1 teaspoon xanthan gum
  • 2 level scoops injection liquid

Instructions
 

  • Start by mixing all ingredients in a large mixing bowl.
  • Next, use the meat injector to inject the mixture into the entire brisket, making sure to evenly distribute the injection in a checkerboard pattern.
  • Place the brisket on the stainless steel grid pattern on the pellet grill, and cook it at a very slow temperature for at least 8 hours.
  • After 8 hours, flip the brisket over and continue cooking it for another 8 hours.
  • Once the brisket is cooked, remove it from the grill and let it rest for at least 30 minutes before slicing.

Notes

  • It is important to make sure that the brisket is at room temperature before starting the cooking process, as this will allow for better moisture retention.
  • To get the best results, it is important to use a good quality brisket, such as a butcher's prime brisket.
  • You can use this injection recipe for both prime rib and the whole flat of the brisket.
  • This injection recipe is a great way to add a new level of luscious flavor and juiciness to your brisket, and is perfect for both home use and competition-level BBQ.
  • You can also use this injection recipe for other meats, such as pork and chicken, for a similar result.
  • If you want to add more distinct beef flavor, you can use beef stock or bullion cubes instead of water.
  • Cooker temperature and time may vary based on your equipment. Consult your pellet grill's manual for specific temperature and time recommendations.
