Smoky Barbecue Brisket

I got this recipe out of one of my books the other day and gave it a try. It is well worth the over night marinade time, waiting a day after it has been cooked and worth every penny spent. It is delicious.

• Ready In: 6 hrs 10 mins
• Serves: 8

Ingredients

• 4  lbs beef brisket
• 5  ounces liquid smoke
• 1  onion (chopped)
• 3  garlic cloves (minced)
• 1  teaspoon salt
• 1⁄3 cup Worcestershire sauce
• 12  ounces barbecue sauce

Directions

1. Place brisket in a large ziploc bag. Pour in the liquid smoke, salt, onion, and garlic. Seal and place in the refridgerator and let it marinate all night or at least 8 hours.
2. Remove the brisket in a sheet of heavy duty foil. Pour the worcestershire sauce over the brisket and wrap it tightly in the foil. Place the roast in a large roasting pan.
3. Bake the brisket at 275 degrees farenheit for 5 hours.
4. Unfold the foil, pour the bbq sauce over the brisket and contion to bake the brisket at the same temperature for another hour uncovered.
5. Place the brisket in the refridgerator to rest overnight again. The next day when you are ready to serve the meat, slice it across the grain and reheat gently in the oven. You can skip this step but it adds to the flavor if you let it sit after it has been initially cooked.
