Texas Oven BBQ Beef Brisket

From Texas Beef Council and Peter Rosenberg
1999

1 whole brisket (it helps to have a meat thermometer for this recipe)

For the brisket rub:
1/2 cup chili powder
1/2 cup salt
1/4 cup granulated garlic
1/4 cup granulated onion
1/4 cup black pepper
1/4 cup sugar
2 tablespoons dry mustard
2 bay leaves

Combine seasoning ingredients in a food processor until evenly distributed. Season raw brisket on both sides with brisket rub seasoning and then place in your roasting pan.

Roast for 1 hour at 350 degrees. Add enough liquid to the roasting pan to achieve 1/2 inch liquid in the pan. Now cover the roasting pan and lower heat to 325 degrees. Continue cooking for 4 - 5 hours, depending on size, basting frequently. Internal temperature of 185 degrees will indicate a fully cooked brisket.

Trim all fat and slice meat thinly across the grain. Serve with Chuck Wagon BBQ sauce.


Chuck Wagon BBQ Sauce

2 cups onions

1 cup strong black brewed coffee
1 cup Worcestershire sauce
1 cup catsup
1/2 cup cider vinegar
1/2 cup brown sugar
3 tablespoons chili powder

Cook onions, jalapeños and garlic in a saucepan for 4-5 minutes.
And remaining ingredients and mix well.
