Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1/4 cup Dijon mustard
  • 3 lb corned beef brisket flat, fat cap 1/4 inch thick
  • 1 bottle of Trager Apricot BBQ sauce
  • Cherry pellets

Instructions

  1. Soak the corned beef in water for eight hours, make sure that you change the water every two hours.
  2. Next, preheat your Traeger to 275℉ for 15 minutes with the lid closed.

  7. Take the brisket off the grill and allow it to rest for 15-20 minutes. Next, slice it against the grain and serve it with your favorite side dishes.
