Combine all the spices in a bowl, mix well. Pat the spice rub onto the meat, making sure to heavily season the entire surface area of the brisket. Cover or wrap the brisket and let it sit at room temperature while getting the grill ready.
If using a gas grill preheat to high. Turn off half the burners and wipe down the grates with oil.
If using a charcoal grill, arrange the coals on 1 side of the grill, leaving an area large enough for the brisket to cook indirectly with no coals directly underneath the meat.
When the grill has reached 200 to 225 degrees F, place the chips in a smoker box and place it under the grate. Put the brisket on the side with no coals or flame and close the lid. Maintain a 200 to 225 degree F cooking temperature inside the grill. If you are using a charcoal grill add coals every 2 Hours or as needed. Spray the brisket with apple juice every 2 Hours. Try not to lift the lid of the grill at any other time.
After 3 Hours the brisket should have an internal temperature of 165 to 170 degrees F on an instant read meat thermometer.
Remove it from the grill and double wrap in aluminum foil to keep the juices from leaking out. Return the brisket to the grill and cook about another hour or until temperature reaches 190 degrees F. Let rest for 45 Minutes , then unwrap and slice. Serve with BBQ sauce on the side.
