Description
Delicious Crockpot Brisket recipe with step-by-step instructions.
Ingredients
Scale
- 3 – 4 pounds beef brisket (about 1.4–1.8 kilograms)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 onion, sliced
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 cups beef broth (about 480 milliliters)
- 1 cup barbecue sauce (about 240 milliliters)
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce (about 30 milliliters)
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional)
- Fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
- Begin your journey to perfect Crockpot Brisket by selecting a good cut of beef. The brisket is known for its rich flavor, but it also requires proper seasoning to truly shine.
- While the brisket is searing, prepare the foundation of flavors in your Crockpot. Slice the onion thinly and mince the garlic; these aromatics will infuse the meat as it cooks.
- Now that your brisket is prepped and nestled in the Crockpot, cover it with its lid and set it to cook on low for 8–10 hours or high for 4–6 hours, depending on your schedule.
- Once the cooking time is up, carefully remove the brisket from the Crockpot and place it on a cutting board. Allow it to rest for 10–15 minutes; this step is crucial as it allows the juices to redistribute, ensuring each slice remains juicy.
- When it’s time to serve, bring the tender slices of brisket to the table, accompanied by the aromatic sauce. The contrast of the juicy meat with the slightly sweet and tangy sauce creates a delightful balance.
