Re: rub?
There's always the ole' backup - "Black & White" Rub (kosher salt and course black pepper 1/4 cup of each).
If you want to jazz that up a little then add:
Garlic - 2T
Smoked Paprika - 1/4 C for color
Worchestershire powder - 1/8 C
Turbanado Sugar - 1/4 C (help it stick/caramelize)
These amounts should easily do a large packer……

And on the eighth day God created barbecue …. because he DOES love us and he wants us to be happy.

Re: rub?
I'm a minimalist kind of guy with brisket as well. If you want to, substitute Seasoned Salt. Some will inject with beef broth too.
If it's tourist season, how come I can't shoot 'em?

Re: rub?
Pete, don't you know it is a mortal sin to cook meat in a microwave? LOL. Makes the meat tough.
Interesting idea on ground beef though. I think I would prefer putting meatballs in a muffin pan and put in oven. Might need to draw up a diagram of the pan to know what recipe is in which hole.
If you want a pork recipe, I guess you could do the same thing with ground pork.

Re: rub?
I dry brine with kosher salt and sometimes inject with unsalted beef stock the night before. The next morning I generously apply the rub and plop it on the smoker.
3 tbsp fine ground black pepper
1 tbsp sugar
1 tbsp onion powder
2tsp mustard powder
2tsp garlic powder
2tsp ancho chili powder
1tsp ground chipotle
