• Bring brisket to room temperature early in the morning, about 1 hour.
• Whisk paprika, salt, sugar, black pepper, chili powder, cumin, garlic, cayenne pepper, and cinnamon for dry rub together in a small bowl. Apply rub liberally to the complete brisket and leave at room temperature while you prepare the smoker.
• Preheat a smoker for indirect heat to 225 to 250 degrees F (107 to 121 degrees F) according to manufacturer's instructions. Add wood chips to the charcoal and place a small cast iron pan of water over the fire.
• Lay brisket, fat-side up, about 8 inches away from the fire and smoke for 1 hour, maintaining the smoker's internal temperature at 200 to 225 degrees F (93 to 107 degrees F). Add 12 to 15 charcoal briquettes, replenish wood chips, and add more water to the pan; smoke for 1 more hour.

Set the brisket fat-side up on the rack and cover the pan tightly with foil. Place the pan in the oven and bake until the brisket is very tender and the meat can be easily flaked with a fork but is not falling apart, 3 1/2 to 4 hours.
• Meanwhile, for the mop: Combine the apple juice, cider vinegar, brown sugar, vegetable oil, Worcestershire sauce, salt and a few grinds of pepper in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat and cook until the liquid is reduced to 1 cup, about 7 minutes. Remove from the heat and let cool.
• When the brisket is finished roasting, preheat a grill to medium. Grill the brisket, brushing with the mop and turning occasionally, until the fat is crispy and the brisket is charred in spots, about 20 minutes. Remove from the grill and let rest 10 minutes.
• Thinly slice the brisket against the grain and brush with the remaining mop. Butter the buns, then toast on the grill, about 1 minute. Serve the brisket with the buns, BBQ sauce, coleslaw and pickles.
