Help with a brisket recipe

[Brisket_Rich]

Hello all. Noob here on the forum. I have been smoking briskets for about 14 years now. I have the same ingredients and have never received complaints. All my briskets have been free so why complain.
Anyway several years ago I was attending BBQ competition and normally I do not eat brisket other than my own. Not that I feel mine is better but after churning them 5-6 times a year I just do not care for eating it. However, I tried a sample and till this day I cannot get it out of my head. I tried looking on Google but I am unsure how to accomplish this.
The best way I can describe it is: It starts out in your mouth sweet, and right at the end you get a nice kick of spice. Not hot but just enough to make you say "wow I did not expect that"
I do not want to spend 30-40 bucks on something that will not come out right. I have looked at youtube, pinterest, google. I cant rewind time and find out who made that brisket but I thought I would post here. Please help!

Id try cane sugar, and if you can grind good quality black peppercorns to a VERY course grind, that would give you exactly what you're looking for. Fill the rest of the ingredients that you like in the middle of those two.

I find cane sugar to be much less heavy handed than BS. It's all I'll use on poultry for example.
