Easy Beef Brisket Recipe: The Simplest and Best!

Ingredients

• 1 (3 pound) beef brisket, trimmed of fat
• salt and pepper to taste
• 1 medium onion, thinly sliced
• 1 (12 fluid ounce) can beer
• 1 (12 ounce) bottle tomato-based chili sauce
• 0.75 cup packed brown sugar

Instructions

1. Prepare all the necessary ingredients for the recipe.
2. Preheat your oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). This is crucial for slow cooking.
3. Generously season the brisket with salt and pepper on all sides. Place it in a glass baking dish and cover with a layer of sliced onion to infuse flavor.
4. In a medium bowl, combine beer, chili sauce, and brown sugar. This creates the sweet and spicy sauce. Pour the mixture over the beef brisket and cover the dish tightly with aluminum foil to lock in moisture.
5. Bake in the preheated oven for 3 hours. Then, remove the aluminum foil and continue baking for an additional 30 minutes to allow the brisket to brown slightly.
6. Allow the brisket to rest and cool slightly before slicing. Return the sliced brisket to the dish and spoon the sauce over the meat. Reheat gently in the oven before serving to ensure it's warmed through and juicy.
