Notes
Be sure to choose a beef brisket that is at least 3-4 pounds. If you can’t find a beef brisket that size, you can use a larger one, just be aware that the cooking time may vary.
Be sure to season the beef before cooking. This will help to add flavor to the beef as it cooks.
The beef will be fork-tender when it is done cooking. If it isn’t, continue to cook for another hour or so.
