Brisket Ingredients
Method
Cooking Directions
- 1
Prepare the Brisket
Start by trimming any excess fat from the brisket, leaving about a quarter inch of fat for flavor.
- 2
Make the Spice Rub
In a bowl, mix together the garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, cayenne pepper, salt, black pepper, and brown sugar. This will be your spice rub.
- 3
Season the Brisket
Rub the olive oil over the brisket to help the spice rub stick, then generously apply the spice rub over the entire brisket, ensuring it is evenly coated.
- 4
Marinate
Place the seasoned brisket in a large resealable plastic bag or a dish, pour the apple cider vinegar over it, seal the bag or cover the dish, and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight.

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

Roast the Brisket
Cover the roasting pan tightly with aluminum foil and roast in the preheated oven for about 4 hours, or until the brisket is fork-tender.
- 8
Rest the Brisket
Once cooked, remove the brisket from the oven and let it rest for at least 30 minutes before slicing. This allows the juices to redistribute.

Slice and Serve
Slice the brisket against the grain and serve with your favorite sides.
