Kennys seasoning, or just kosher salt/coarse ground pepper mix

I am pretty simple. Some of my best briskets only had sea salt, coarse ground black pepper and garlic powder. Go to 6.20 in the video below for Franklin`s secret brisket rub.

I've tried the big ones. Kosmos, Oakridge Black Ops, Meat Church, etc. All of them are really good. But, everyone always seems to prefer salt and pepper with a little chili powder. My wife even gets mad when I change up the seasoning. I've almost quit experimenting with the seasoning entirely because the people were getting disappointed when I didn't make my normal brisket.

Diamond Crystal Kosher salt and 16 mesh black pepper. Equal part by volume. Then a light dusting of Ancho Chili Powder. You can use Mortons Kosher salt, but it will come out better with Diamond brand. Only issue is it has to be purchased online. Franklin won a James Beard award for his brisket. It's hard to argue with his results.

Everyone's tastes are different. This just seems to be what my friends and family prefer.

This is my 12 pounder going this morning with the S&P rub. Only about 3 hours in.

I use 50/50 kosher salt and coarse ground pepper (maybe 16 mesh but I’ve never seen that on any bottle. But my salt is 50% kosher, 50% seasoned salt.

Comes out ok.

I make my own rub. Brown sugar, garlic salt, garlic powder, onion powder, Lowrey's salt, black pepper, cayenne, and one thing that I see missing in a lot of other rubs. Paprika. Heavy on tthe paprika.

Coarse salt and coarse ground pepper and don't be stingy with it, rub it in well. If you're able to plan ahead, put it in a big pan or on a cookie sheet, cover it with plastic wrap, and leave it in a fridge a day or two after you rub it down.

You can "experiment" with different seasonings if you want, but the key is to let it marinate in the fridge and absorb the seasonings.

I have used severa different combos over the years. The consistently best one I have used is kosher salt and course black pepper. That's it and its great on brisket, pork ribs and buts, beef ribs, chicken, you name it.

I like a 50/50 salt and pepper majority of the time, last time I did a brisket I added some granulated garlic to it.

pretty simple here, equal parts salt, black pepper, onion powder. I have tried dozens of different store bought rubs and always come back to S/P/O
