Coarsely crush the black pepper, coriander, and mustard seeds in a mortar.
Mix the rock salt, crushed spices, garlic powder, and brown sugar.
Coat the beef brisket with the spice mixture and cure it in the refrigerator for 48 hours.
Remove the meat from the cure, wipe off excess spice, and rest it at room temperature for 30 minutes.
Prepare the smoker setup and smoke the meat at 110°C for 3 hours.
Soften the smoked meat in a steamer for 60 minutes.
Rest the meat for 15 minutes, then slice it thinly against the grain.
Spread yellow mustard on rye bread and make sandwiches with the meat and sauerkraut.
💡 Tip: If the cure is shorter than 48 hours, the spices will not penetrate the meat; because the timer is limited to 24 hours, plan a manual second check for the next day.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Slice the meat thinly and serve it as a hot sandwich with rye bread, yellow mustard, and optional sauerkraut.
