I used just about a 6" piece of brisket b/c I wasn't sure if we'd like it. It IS spicy, if you're not into that, it'd be too much. Very easy, VERY VERY flavorful.. I needed to add more salt. I think this might be good to add some sweet - like some bbq sauce.. VERY MOIST! VERY JUICY! Let it sit before slicing.<br/><br/>Thanks<br/>Amber

This was made specifically for a 7-person group (a neighbor couple & their visiting kids & family), & from the reports I got back, it was entirely devoured by the end of dinner! The recipe was followed with the exception that I didn't peel the potatoes! They'd be happy to give this a 6-star rating if they could! Now I have to find the right time to make it for a dinner here at home! Thanks for posting the recipe! [Tagged, made & reviewed in Newest Zaar tag game]
