Chers Char Grilled Oven Brisket Recipes

CHER'S CHAR-GRILLED OVEN BRISKET

Steps:

• Trim as much fat as possible from brisket.
• Place in a large roasting pan (I buy the aluminum throw aways).
• Pour entire bottle of Stubs marinade and beer over brisket.
• Marinade the brisket in the fridge at least 24 hours, turning once or twice.
• When you're ready to cook (early the next day) remove the brisket from the marinade and place on a very hot outdoor grill.
• Sear brisket on both sides till it almost appears blackened (this will not hurt the flavor, only intensifies the juices while baking).
• Discard remaining marinade.
• Place char-grilled brisket on heavy duty foil and wrap very tightly (I actually wrap the brisket twice to avoid losing too much of the juices).
• Place in a 250°F oven and bake for 7 hours.
• Remove the brisket from foil and let rest in its own juices for at least 20 minutes before slicing.
• Serve with your favorite BBQ sauce -- if desired, however, the pan juices spooned over the brisket is out of this world.

SHERRI'S OVEN BRISKET

Steps:

• Mix all ingredients in a small bowl (except brisket).
• Line a baking pan with enough foil to seal over the meat.
• Brush half of mixture on bottom of foil. Then, place brisket in the pan, fatty side up. Brush the remaining mixture on top of brisket. Cover and seal well.
• Marinate overnight in refrigerator.
• Take out of fridge about 1/2 hour before cooking.
• Bake at 300F for 3-1/2 hours or until tender.
• Take from oven and allow to rest 15 minutes before cutting.
• Scrape marinade off of meat and slice across the grain.
• Note 1: This recipe is good for 4-6 lbs. of brisket. If you are cooking a larger size, adjust amount of marinade accordingly, marinate longer-at least 24 hours, and adjust cooking time. Allow approximately 1/2 hour cooking per 1 lb. at 300°F.
• Note 2: The pan drippings make a wonderful sauce but you will need to skim the fat and/or strain with cheesecloth. Add beef broth and thicken with cornstarch, if needed. Or, just use your favorite barbecue sauce.
