How to Make Bbq Brisket

  1. Preheat oven to 275°F (135°C).
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together 1 cup of your favorite BBQ sauce and 1 teaspoon of liquid smoke.
  3. Place a 3-4 lb beef brisket in a large glass baking dish.
  4. Pour the BBQ sauce mixture evenly over the brisket.
  5. Cover the baking dish tightly with aluminum foil.
  6. Bake for 6-8 hours, or until the brisket is fork-tender. The internal temperature should reach 200°F (93°C).
  7. Remove from oven and let the brisket rest in the baking dish, covered, for at least 30 minutes.
  8. Carefully transfer the brisket to a refrigerator and chill overnight.
  9. Before slicing, bring the brisket to room temperature.
  10. Slice the brisket against the grain and serve, drizzled with the pan juices.
