Brisket seasoning question

[jsperk]

I was going to try salt & pepper only brisket today but my friends are not into real peppery food.
They love the texas bbq rub grand champion when I use it on pork . I was wondering if I should use that or if I go salt and pepper the pepper will not be so strong?

Thanks

Just cut back on the pepper if that is the only issue. I know a lot of folks like their briskets with just the salt and pepper, some go with SPOG. Lots of choices, just go with what sounds good to you at the time:-D.

Thanks. I would use the Texas bbq rub but I'm worried with it being sugar based it may burn since I'll be cooking at 300.

To answer your question a bit more seriously. There is no reason a 50/50 by volume should be too peppery. Do what makes you happy.

Thanks all. Just trying to hopefully make them happy since my buddy paid for it and said it didn't want money. I'll just bring him extra beer.

Generally, salt and pepper with maybe a little garlic powder.

Franklin's in Austin usually uses just salt and pepper.
