Trim brisket of all excess fat.

To make the beef broth injection, combine 2 tablespoons Traeger Coffee Rub, beef broth and 2 tablespoons salt in a small bowl, stirring until the salt is dissolved. Inject the brisket by inserting the needle parallel to the grain about 1 inch apart in a checker pattern over the entire brisket. Pull it back out as you press the plunger. Inject in a high-sided aluminum pan or bus tub and hold your hand over where you are injecting to contain the mess.

Season the exterior of the brisket with remaining rub and remaining salt.

Place brisket directly on the grill grate and cook for about 6 hours or until the internal temperature reaches 160℉.
