Southern Barbecued Brisket:

 

Ingredients:

 

1 fresh beef brisket (5 pounds)

1 large onion, chopped

1 cup ketchup

1/4 cup water

3 tablespoons brown sugar

1 tablespoon Liquid Smoke, optional

2 teaspoons celery seed

1 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon ground mustard

1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper

 

Directions:

 

Place brisket on a large sheet of heavy-duty foil; seal tightly. Place in a greased shallow roasting pan. Bake at 325° for 2 to 2-1/2 hours or until meat is tender. Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, combine the remaining ingredients. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from the heat. Carefully open foil to allow steam to escape. Remove brisket from foil; let stand for 20 minutes. Thinly slice meat across the grain. Place in an ungreased 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish. Spoon sauce over meat. Cover and bake for 1 hour or until heated through.
