How to Make Bbq Beef Brisket
- Preheat oven to 250°F (120°C).
- Line a large roasting pan with enough aluminum foil to completely cover a 4-6 lb brisket.
- Place the brisket, fat side up, in the prepared roasting pan.
- Sprinkle 1 packet (1 ounce) dry onion soup mix evenly over the brisket.
- In a bowl, combine 1 (14 ounce) can cranberry sauce and 1 (18 ounce) bottle of your favorite BBQ sauce. Pour evenly over the brisket.
- (Optional) If using gingersnap cookies, finely crush 1 cup of cookies in a food processor and sprinkle over the brisket.
- Tent the brisket loosely with foil, sealing the edges to create a tight package.
- Cook in the preheated oven for 6-8 hours, or until a fork easily slides into the meat.
- Carefully remove the brisket from the oven and let it cool slightly.
- Transfer the BBQ sauce from the roasting pan to a separate container to serve as gravy.
- Once warm, shred the brisket using two forks.
- Place the shredded brisket in a slow cooker.
- Add 2 cups of water and 1 cup of the reserved BBQ sauce to the slow cooker.
- Turn the slow cooker to low heat and cook for 1 hour before serving.
