How to Make All Purpose Marinade Mop Dipping Sauce

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together all marinade ingredients until well combined.
  2. Place your brisket in a large resealable bag or container, and pour the marinade over it, ensuring the brisket is fully coated.
  3. Marinate the brisket in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, for maximum flavor penetration.
  4. When ready to cook, reserve about 1 cup of the marinade before removing the brisket.
  5. For the beer mop: In a saucepan, combine the reserved marinade with 1 cup of beer (your choice!), and simmer over low heat for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  6. Use the beer mop to baste your brisket throughout the cooking process.
  7. For the dipping/BBQ sauce: In a separate saucepan, combine the remaining reserved marinade with 1/4 cup of your favorite BBQ sauce, 2 tablespoons of brown sugar, and 1 tablespoon of apple cider vinegar.
  8. Simmer the sauce over low heat for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until thickened to your desired consistency.
  9. Serve the dipping/BBQ sauce alongside your perfectly cooked brisket.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Small additions can make a big impact! Try a sprinkle of fresh herbs, a dash of your favorite spice blend, or a squeeze of citrus just before serving to really enhance the flavors of your dish.
