just remember to cook it slow on a cool oven if doing one in the oven. Cooked right brisket is a winner every time, but it has to be cooked right

That is some expensive marinade! It must be good. I have been wanting to try cooking a brisket. Down here, BBQ is pork mainly and I cook a Boston butt. I keep hearing from my Texas friends how wonderful a brisket is "done right".

I'm also in Dixie. I still prefer my low-and-slow BBQ pork butt over beef brisket any day.

if you don't see fresh brisket,,,ask the butchers...they can order it for you and if they don't normally sell it,,,they may give you a hell of a deal.. (brand new sale)

I have customers that will buy a 100 lbs at a time and customers that will buy 4lbs for special orders.

independent stores have price flexibility,,,chain stores do not


corned beef has always sold well up this way ...more than fresh brisket,,,
but fresh briskets are catching on- much like the pork butt

Would a crock pot be a good way to cook a brisket, or would I get more flavor by oven roasting?

I'm not a crock pot fan, Kats, but brisket is definitely something you can do in one.

Brisket "done right" to a Texan would be made in a smoker.

I'm a Texifornian, so I make mine in the oven.

My niece had brisket sliders at her wedding reception. They were a big hit.

My BF makes a homemade dry bbq rub that I've been using on my brisket when I make them. The only thing I add to his rub is some instant coffee, the Via from SBux, and only a half package. I then put the brisket in a glass lined dish lined with foil, heavily rub the seasoning all over, and then stud it all over with cloves of garlic. I do NOT add any liquid. I put it in the oven for 1 hour on 350, uncovered. After an hour I lower the temp to 300 and cover the brisket with foil (a disposable aluminum pan is great for this, fits right over the glass dish) and let it cook covered for 2 hours. I then lower the temperature down to 250 and cook it for the rest of the time at this temperature, still covered.


Falls apart and delicious. Won't make it any other way since I tried this about a year ago.

Whoopsie! I stud it first with the garlic, THEN rub the rub all over it.


Wish I could tell you what was in his rub. Even I don't know the recipe, but at least he keeps me wells supplied!
