MN’s Best Brisket – The Crown Jewel of BBQ

At SMOAK BBQ, we take brisket seriously — and it shows. Try Minnesota’s Best Brisket, our slow-smoked cut is the ultimate expression of BBQ perfection. Known as the “crown jewel” of the pit, brisket is the most coveted and most challenging cut to master.

Each brisket at SMOAK is seasoned with our signature SMOAK’d beef rub, then smoked low and slow for 12–16 hours at 250–275°F, followed by a crucial 2-hour rest. The result? Incredibly tender, flavorful beef with just the right amount of smoky bark and juicy marbling.

Our brisket is served in generous portions daily, sliced from the lean, juicy flat or the tender, marbled point. You’ll find it in our BBQ plates, sandwiches, tacos, bowls, pit beans, and chili — until we sell out!

Cooked All Night. Worth Every Bite.

Our brisket journey begins every afternoon, when we fire up the smokers and begin an overnight cook that ends just in time for lunch. It’s an around-the-clock commitment to quality — and it’s what sets our brisket apart. One taste, and you’ll know why it’s MN’s best.
