Method

  • With a fork, poke holes all around a 2-3 lb brisket (preferably second cut).

  • Remove the brisket from the liquid and pat down with the spice rub.
  • In a large cast iron pan, sear the brisket on all sides (about 1-2 minutes each) in a tablespoon of olive oil. As you sear the brisket add in the whole garlic cloves and basted the brisket with the juices in the pan.
  • After the brisket is seared, pour in the coke and cover the top of the brisket in the BBQ sauce.
