Spicy Beef Brisket

Make sandwiches by adding your favorite BBQ sauce, thinly sliced onions or pickles, and a freshly baked bun.

Ingredients:

• 2 T salt
• 1 T garlic powder
• 1 T onion powder
• 1 T ground black pepper
• 1 T sugar
• 2 tsp dry mustard
• 1 bay leaf, crushed
• 4 lbs beef brisket, trimmed
• 1 1/2 cups beef stock

Directions:

1. Preheat the oven to 350.

2. Make a dry rub by combining salt, garlic and onion powders, black pepper, sugar, dry mustard, and bay leaf.

3. Season the raw brisket on both sides with the rub. Place in a roasting pan and roast, uncovered, for 1 hour.

4. Add beef stock and enough water to yield about 1/2 inch of liquid in the roasting pan. Lower oven to 300, cover pan tightly and continue cooking for 3 hours, or until fork-tender.

5. Trim the fat and chop. Top with juice from the pan or make sandwiches with your favorite sauce and toppings.
