How to Make From Aj's To Daddys Brisket
- Day 1: Prepare the brisket. Trim excess fat from a 3-4 lb beef brisket. Season generously with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder.
- In a large bowl, combine 1 cup brown sugar, 1/2 cup Dijon mustard, 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar, 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce, 1 tablespoon smoked paprika, and 1 teaspoon dried thyme. Mix well.
- Place the brisket in a large roasting pan or Dutch oven. Pour the sauce over the brisket, ensuring it's coated evenly.
- Cover the roasting pan tightly with foil or a lid. Refrigerate overnight (at least 8 hours).
- Day 2: Preheat oven to 300°F (150°C).
- Place the roasting pan in the preheated oven. Cook for approximately 4-5 hours, or until the brisket is fork-tender.
- Remove the brisket from the oven and let it rest for at least 30 minutes before shredding.
- Shred the brisket using two forks. Skim off excess fat from the cooking liquid.
- Return the shredded brisket to the cooking liquid, allowing it to absorb some of the delicious sauce.
- Serve on buns, alongside mashed potatoes, or as part of a hearty sandwich. Enjoy!
