Cooking times for larger briskets would be helpful. I live in Texas and our briskets are typically 8-10 lbs. We probably have 3 lb briskets but I’ve never seen one.
After preparing the above recipe, I submerged the bag into enough water to almost covered and it bubbled gently around the bagged meat for 8hours and the meat turned to a jelly! My goodness, what a treat!
Incredible that such a simple, easy receipt can taste so good. I followed the instructions to the “T” and it lasted only two days… LOL
I love Brisket ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I’ve made this twice now & everyone that ate it loved it! Very tasty. My only problem is I can’t seem to make enough for left overs!
This recipe is divine! I’ve tried quite a few brisket recipes off this site, and if you’re trying to decide…look no further! I did take the advice of others and add some beef broth (about a cup) but followed the recipe otherwise, minus the cooking bag since I didn’t have one. Just covered my roasting pan tightly with foil. Didn’t touch it while it cooked for 6 hours (3.5 lb trimmed brisket). Absolutely fabulous!! My husband hasn’t stopped raving about how great it was! Definitely a keeper.
This is my go to recipe for brisket. I make it as peruse corn starch instead of flour because it makes it gluten free. I also add more broth. By the time it’s done cooking I also have my gravy made. Great recipe!!!!
As it was cooking it filled my house with a wonderful aroma. It is – as advertised – incredibly tender. I made it exactly as written and now I may tinker with some of the ingredients to try different flavors.
I changed the onion soup mix to hot and sour soup mix and the smoke flavoring to Kitchen Bouquet. It was wonderful! So tender and juicy! Love it!
Everyone loves this recipe
I seasoned mine slightly different. I didn’t have the exact ones called for. The meat came out amazing. The tender part is no joke! Wonderful recipe! Will do it again!!
Delicious moist and tender (if you buy a good quality brisket!) First time I made it it was delicious. Second time I was at another supermarket and felt like having a brisket so bought one, boy what a piece of shoe leather that was! Lesson learnt, must buy brisket from a good supermarket or butcher. I found I did not have to add liquid to make the gravy, plenty came out of the meat, added a bit of flour and yummy gravy was made out of the juices.
I cooked it and it was wonderful, very tasty. My husband said it was the best beef brisket he ate so far.
This was easy and it is delicious. I didn’t have an oven bag, so I just coated the brisket with the other ingredients and shoved it into my Dutch Oven. There was just enough liquid in the bottom to make a gravy to top some mashed potatoes I served with this meat.

Wow is this good! Didn’t have a roasting bag so I loosely wrapped it in foil inside my cast iron lidded Dutch oven. Added a little less than 1 cup water and a beef bullion cube. It was so good. After 7 hours it was so tender and flavorful. Will definitely be doing this one again.
The recipe was great and my brisket turned out fantastic!
I used a smaller brisket, approx 1.5#, and halved the ingredients, added a few drops of water, wrapped in foil. cooked for approx 5 hours, and it was great!
Had a very large piece of brisket. Used a bag, added flour to prevent sticking and rupture. Layered a sliced sweet onion underneath, rubbed the meat with tenderizer, garlic powder, pepper and onion soup mix and placed in bag. Poured beef broth (1 entire pkg) into bag then poured liquid smoke over the meat. All measurements were doubled. Added potatoes (3lbs) carrots and celery. Roasted in oven at 275 for 10 hours, checked at 3rd hour, 5th, 7th, 9th and removed from oven at 10. Meat was so tender it wouldn’t slice, just fell apart. Placed veggies down 1st in platter, layered the meat on top, then took all the juices and heated them with additional garlic powder, Worcestershire sauce, small amount of beef base, salt and pepper, then poured it over meat and veggies to serve. The nephews ate enough to pop and hubby came back for thirds.
This is the best. We did add a 1/2 cup beef broth. Very tender juicy and tasted great we love it and will make again. A must try for everyone. 🙂
