Y’all, let me tell you about a mouth-watering Texas dinner that’ll have your family fighting over the last bite! This recipe has been my go-to when I want to impress guests or simply treat myself to something extra special. Trust me, honey, this Smoky Texas-Style Beef Brisket with Bourbon-Peach Glaze is worth every minute in the kitchen.
Let’s get down to business, shall we? 💁♀️
For the brisket:
– 5-pound beef brisket
– 2 tablespoons kosher salt
– 2 tablespoons black pepper
– 2 tablespoons garlic powder
– 2 tablespoons smoked paprika
– 1 tablespoon brown sugar
For that heavenly glaze (trust me, it’s life-changing):
– 2 ripe peaches, pitted and chopped
– 1/2 cup bourbon
– 1/4 cup honey
– 2 tablespoons butter
– Pinch of cayenne (because we’re sassy like that!)

Let’s cook this bad boy:
1. First things first, mix all your dry rub ingredients and massage that brisket like it’s had a rough day. Cover and let it rest overnight in the fridge – patience is key, darling!
1. The next day, preheat your smoker (or oven) to 225°F. Place the brisket fat side up and let it do its thing for about 8-10 hours, or until it reaches that magical internal temperature of 195°F.
1. While waiting (and trust me, the waiting is the hardest part), let’s make that glaze that’ll make your taste buds dance! In a saucepan, combine those juicy peaches, bourbon, honey, and butter. Simmer until it’s thick and glossy, about 15 minutes.
1. Once your brisket is ready, brush it generously with that gorgeous glaze and let it rest for 30 minutes before slicing against the grain.
Y’all, I serve this beauty with some creamy jalapeño mac and cheese and grilled corn on the cob. It’s basically a Texas symphony on a plate! 🎵
