Brisket Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Brisket

    Start by trimming any excess fat from the beef brisket to ensure a leaner cut. Rinse the brisket under cold water and pat it dry with paper towels.

  2. 2

    Season the Brisket

    In a small bowl, mix together the kosher salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and brown sugar. Rub this seasoning mix all over the brisket, ensuring it is evenly coated. Let it sit at room temperature for 30 minutes to absorb the flavors.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Cooking Liquid

    In a separate bowl, combine the beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, and liquid smoke. Stir well to mix the ingredients.

  4. 4

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C).

  5. 5

    Cook the Brisket

    Place the seasoned brisket in a roasting pan and pour the beef broth mixture over it. Cover the pan tightly with aluminum foil to trap in moisture. Cook in the preheated oven for approximately 3 to 4 hours, or until the internal temperature reaches 195°F (90°C).

  6. 6

    Rest the Brisket

    Once cooked, remove the brisket from the oven and let it rest covered for at least 30 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat.

  7. 7

    Slice and Serve

    After resting, slice the brisket against the grain into thin slices. Serve with your favorite sides and enjoy!
