No Fail Beef Brisket

I used to think I didn't like BBQ.  Turns out, the Kraft BBQ sauce is NOT even close to what BBQ is.  My husband's family is from Texas and as soon as we started dating he introduced me to really BBQ....and I LOVE LOVE it.  I really love it.  However, I had never tried making my own BBQ dishes......I simply enjoyed what others made.  Then, I was given a 6 lb brisket.  My husband was so excited at the thought of having beef brisket at home.  I combined 2 recipes and made my own BBQ reduction for the top.  It was just as yummy as I had been hoping.  And there is a "secret ingredient" in the BBQ reduction.  

Don't be intimidated by such a large cut of beef.  It cookes all afternoon unattended and turns out so tender.  You can even make the BBQ reduction the night before if you like.  Talk about making a Sunday dinner easy and relaxing.  I served our No Fail Beef Brisket with mashed red potatoes and cooked carrots.  Add a salad and rolls for a big Sunday dinner feast.
