Serves

Make the mop sauce: In a clean spray bottle, combine the beef broth, beer, or cola with the vinegar and Worcestershire sauce.

Arrange the brisket fat-side up on the grill grate and smoke for 3 to 4 hours, spraying with the mop sauce every hour. Set the temperature to 225F and continue to cook the brisket, spraying occasionally with mop sauce, until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the meat reads 190 to 195. (This will likely take 4 to 6 hours more, or even longer. Be patient and don't rush the process.)

Foil the meat and let it rest for 30 minutes, preferably in an insulated container so the meat stays hot. Slice with a sharp knife across the grain into pencil-width slices. Serve the barbecue sauce separately on the side.
