Okie Bo’s Oven Roasted Beef Brisket
MAKES 6 TO 8 SERVINGS
COOK TIME: 3 HOURS
THE BRISKET ROASTS IN THE OVEN FOR THREE HOURS, ASKING VERY LITTLE ATTENTION FROM YOU. THE FLAVORS ARE SO DELICIOUS – IT TASTES LIKE YOU'VE WORKED ALL DAY.
Beef brisket, about 5 pounds
2 Tablespoons salt
1 teaspoon white pepper
2 cups chopped carrots
3-6 garlic cloves, minced
Preheat the oven to 350 º F. Sprinkle the brisket with salt and pepper and place fat side up in a roasting pan. Pour in enough water to come about two-thirds up the sides of the brisket. Sprinkle the carrots and garlic into the water around the roast.
Roast the brisket, WITHOUT COVERING, until it is browned and tender, about 3 hours, spooning the pan drippings frequently over the meat. If necessary, add a little extra water during the cooking to keep the liquid at least halfway up the sides of the brisket.
To serve: slice the brisket on the diagonal, about ½ inches thick. Roughly chop brisket and add a generous pour of Okie Bo’s BBQ Sauce to the chopped brisket. Serve it up with a side of sauce.
