Barbecued Beef Brisket
Barbecued Beef Brisket is one of the simplest things to make for a crowd and everyone loves it -- it can even be made ahead and frozen. Pair it with sides or build a killer sandwich!
Ingredients
- One 5- to 6-pound beef brisket, trimmed
- 3 tablespoons Emeril's Original Essence or other Creole seasoning [3]
- 3 1/2 teaspoons salt
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 4 cups Barbecue Sauce [4]
- 2 cups Veal Stock or canned low-sodium beef broth [5]
Directions
Preheat the oven to 325 ° F.
Season the brisket on both sides with the Essence and 1 1/2 teaspoons of the salt.
Heat the oil in a large heavy skillet or large roasting pan over high heat. Add the meat and sear, turning once, until evenly browned, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a large roasting pan.
Combine the barbecue sauce, stock, and the remaining 2 teaspoons salt in a large mixing bowl and mix well. Pour the mixture over the brisket and cover tightly with aluminum foil. Bake for 2 1/2 hours.
Turn the meat over, cover again, and continue baking for another 2 1/2 hours, or until very tender.
Let stand for 15 minutes before carving. Slice the meat across the grain and serve with the pan juices spooned over each serving.
