Brisket Recipe

Brisket Directions

1. 1

   Prepare the Brisket

   Remove the brisket from its packaging and pat it dry with paper towels. Trim any excess fat, leaving about 1/4 inch of the fat cap for moisture.

2. 2

   Season the Brisket

   In a small bowl, combine salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and smoked paprika. Rub this spice mixture evenly over the brisket, ensuring all sides are coated.

3. 3

   Marinate the Brisket

   Place the seasoned brisket in a large resealable plastic bag or a covered dish. Pour in the Worcestershire sauce, apple cider vinegar, and brown sugar. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight.

4. 4

   Preheat the Oven

   Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C) while the brisket is marinating.

5. 5

   Prepare for Cooking

   In a large roasting pan, place the marinated brisket fat-side up. Pour the beef broth around the brisket to keep it moist during cooking.

6. 6

   Cook the Brisket

   Cover the roasting pan tightly with foil and place it in the preheated oven. Cook for about 4-5 hours, or until the brisket is tender and easily shreds with a fork.

7. 7

   Rest the Brisket

   Once cooked, remove the brisket from the oven and let it rest for at least 30 minutes before slicing. This helps the juices redistribute.

8. 8

   Slice and Serve

   Slice the brisket against the grain and serve with your choice of sides. Enjoy!
