Tender and succulent beef brisket is a real treat if it is cooked properly.

This oven baked brisket recipe shows you how to cook brisket so it turns out perfectly each and every time.

Always tender, always juicy.

Prep time: 10 minutes

Cook time: 4 hours

Ingredients:
2 tablespoons chili powder
2 tablespoons salt
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 tablespoon freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon sugar
2 teaspoons dry mustard
1 bay leaf, crushed
1 - 4 pound beef brisket, trimmed
1 1/2 cups beef stock or broth

Directions:
Preheat the oven to 350ºF.

To make the rub, combine the chili powder, salt, garlic powder, onion powder, pepper, sugar, mustard, and bay leaf in a small bowl, and mix thoroughly. Season the brisket on both sides with the rub. Place in a roasting pan or Dutch oven and roast uncovered for 1 hour.

Add the beef stock or broth and enough water so that there’s about 1/2 inch of liquid in the pan. Cover tightly with heavy foil (or the lid, if using a Dutch oven), decrease the oven temperature to 300ºF, and continue cooking for 3 hours or until fork-tender. Slice the meat thinly across the grain. Top with the juices from the pan.
