Directions

  1. Heavily coat all sides of the meat with the seasonings.
  2. Place fat side DOWN in oven bag.
  3. Pour liquid smoke into bag and over meat.
  4. Seal bag and allow to marinate overnight.
  5. Place fat side UP in pan, cook at 325 degrees for 4 hours for smaller brisket, longer if 8 lbs. Test with fork through the bag, should be easily pierced and tender, with no blood oozing.
