Annie's Sweet and Sour Baked Brisket

Submitted by SheCooksToConquer

"Another great brisket recipe from my mother. Not only is it simple as can be, but clean up is a breeze since the brisket is cooked in foil."

 

• Ready In: 3hrs 5mins
• Ingredients: 5
• Serves: 4-6

ingredients

• 3 - 3 1⁄2 lbs lean beef brisket
• 1 1⁄2 cups ketchup
• 1⁄2 cup brown sugar, packed
• 1 tablespoon garlic powder
• 1 (1 1/4 ounce) package onion soup mix

directions

1. Preheat oven to 325.
2. Place brisket on a large piece of foil in a baking dish. Pour other ingredients over it. Seal foil.
3. Bake at 325°F for 3 - 3/12 hours until meat is tender.
4. Slice against the grain.
5. NOTE: Just made a wonderful discovery! I had some leftovers that I had frozen a while ago. I thawed the leftovers out, shopped it very fine, and put it in a pot with about 1/2 cup of BBQ sauce (any kind you like.) And voila! BBQ brisket sandwiches. The kids LOVED them.

I´ve been making this one for the past years too. Absolutely easy, no fuss, no mess and very delicious. Only for this recipe I have onion soup mix in the house. Sometimes I add a can of beer or two cups of red wine to the sauce - which is equally delicious.

This is delicious. I don't usually buy prepared soup mixes, but I will buy some more onion soup mix just to be able to make this brisket. Thanks, SheCooksToConquer! Made for PAC Fall 2007.
