- **Cook the Brisket:** Remove the brisket from the refrigerator. Cook for 4-5 hours (or longer, depending on size), or until the brisket is fork-tender.
- **Rest the Brisket:** Remove the brisket from the oven and let it rest for 15-20 minutes before slicing.
- **Slice and Serve:** Slice the brisket against the grain. Skim off any excess fat from the sauce and serve the sauce on the side.
