Brisket Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Brisket

    Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C). Trim excess fat from the brisket if necessary.

  2. 2

    Make the Rub

    In a bowl, mix together brown sugar, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, salt, and smoked paprika.

  3. 3

    Season the Brisket

    Rub the spice mixture all over the brisket, making sure to coat it evenly.

  4. 4

    Prepare for Cooking

    Place the seasoned brisket in a roasting pan. In a separate bowl, mix beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, and apple cider vinegar. Pour this mixture around the brisket in the pan.

  5. 5

    Cover and Cook

    Cover the roasting pan tightly with aluminum foil and place it in the preheated oven. Cook for about 4 hours or until the brisket is tender.

  6. 6

    Rest and Slice

    Once cooked, remove the brisket from the oven and let it rest for at least 30 minutes before slicing against the grain.
