Ingredients
- 3 to 4 pounds beef brisket
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 large onion sliced
- 4 garlic cloves minced
- 1 cup beef broth
- 1/2 cup barbecue sauce
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
Instructions
Prepare the brisket
- Take the brisket out and pat it dry using paper towels. This helps it brown better and improves flavor during cooking.
Season the meat
- Mix salt, pepper, paprika and chili powder. Rub this spice mix all over the brisket. Make sure every side is well coated.
Sear the brisket
- Heat olive oil in a pan. Sear the brisket for a few minutes on each side until it turns brown and flavorful.
Prepare the base
- Place sliced onions and garlic in the roasting pan. They create a strong flavor base that makes the brisket taste richer.
Add liquids and sauce
- Pour beef broth, barbecue sauce, Worcestershire sauce and brown sugar into the pan. Mix lightly so flavors combine well together evenly.
Slow cook the brisket
- Place brisket on top of onions. Cover tightly with foil. Cook in oven at low heat for several hours until tender.
Rest and slice
- Remove brisket carefully and let it rest for 20 minutes. Slice against the grain for soft and juicy meat texture.
Notes
- Always cook on low heat
- Let meat rest before slicing
- Use fresh garlic and onion
- Do not rush cooking time
- Slice against meat grain
- Add extra sauce for moisture
