Instructions

1. 1 Combine coriander, fennel seeds, brown sugar, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and mustard seed in a small bowl until spice mixture is well combined.
2. 2 Place brisket in a glass baking dish and rub spice mixture all over meat. Cover with plastic wrap and place in the refrigerator for 2 to 3 days.
3. 3 Soak wood chips in water for at least 1 hour.
4. 4 Preheat a smoker to 240 degrees F (116 degrees C) according to manufacturer's instructions. Maintain temperature for 15 to 20 minutes.

7. 7 Remove brisket from the smoker and let rest for 40 minutes. Slice corned beef against the grain.
