Equipment
Ingredients
- 4 lb beef brisket
- 1 tbsp onion powder
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 2 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp pepper
Sauce
- 1/2 cup ketchup
- 1/4 tbsp brown sugar
- 1/4 cup whiskey
- 2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tsp hot sauce
Instructions
- Prepare the meat: Place your brisket fat side down in a 13 X 9.5 inch baking dish. In a small bowl whisk together your dry ingredients, plus the soy sauce and Worcestershire sauce and pour over the brisket then rub it all over. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
- Bake the brisket: Preheat your oven to 300 F degrees. Remove your brisket from the fridge, cover it with foil and bake covered for 4 hours.
- Meanwhile, combine your sauce ingredients together. After 4 hours, uncover the brisket and brush the sauce all over the brisket. Transfer the brisket back tot he one and bake further for another 30 minutes uncovered.
- Let it rest: Remove the brisket from the oven and transfer it to a cutting board. Cover it with aluminum foil and let it rest for a good 15 minutes. This will ensure the juices stay in and your brisket doesn’t dry out. Finally, slice up and serve.
Notes
Store well in a shallow airtight container in the fridge and it will last for up to 3 - 4 days. Beef brisket also stores well in the freezer! Just wrap in plastic wrap and aluminum foil and it will keep for up to 3 months. Allow to thaw in the fridge overnight and then gently bring up to temperature in the oven.
