- Line a large roasting pan with foil.
- Place the brisket inside.
- Combine the allspice, pickling salt, sugar, garlic powder, sodium nitrate and cinnamon in a small bowl.
- Rub the seasoning mix over the entire brisket so it can soak into the meat.

- Remove the foil, scrape off any excess dry rub from the brisket and transfer the meat to a large sheet of foil.
- Wrap the hot meat tightly and refrigerate for 1 day.
- Slice the brisket very thin and divide into 6 ounce portions for smoked meat sandwiches.
