Ingredients
- 9 pounds beef brisket whole
- 1 package onion soup mix
- 1 package soup mix
- beefy mushroom
- dry or onion
- mushroom
- 6 ounces tomato paste
- 3 teaspoons worcestershire sauce
- 3/4 cup brown sugar firmly packed
Instructions
- Wash the brisket and pat dry.
- Place it (fat side down) on 2 pieces of heavy duty aluminum foil that are large enough to seal the brisket in.
- Mix all the sauce ingredients together to make a thick paste.
- If necessary add another teaspoon or so of Worchestershire sauce.
- Sauce should be quite thick, but still spreadable.
- Smear the sauce all over the top and sides of the brisket.
- Seal tightly and place in a roasting pan.
- Bake in oven for 5 hours at 325F (160C).
- Remove from oven and refrigerate to solidify fat.
- When fat is solid, remove and discard.
- Then reseal the meat in foil and reheat until meat is quite warm, about an hour.
- This makes it easier to break up the meat.
- Break up the meat into small pieces and stir into the pan juices.
- Seal tightly and place into oven to bring to a hot temperature.
- Serve on good buns.
- If you wish, you can just slice the meat after cooking and after degreasing the juices, pour a bit of the sauce over the meat.
