Ingredients
1 fresh beef brisket (5 pounds)1 large onion, chopped1 cup ketchup1/4 cup water3 tablespoons brown sugar1 tablespoon Liquid Smoke, optional2 teaspoons celery seed1 teaspoon salt1 teaspoon ground mustard1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
Preparation
Place brisket on a large sheet of heavy-duty foil; seal tightly. Place in a greased shallow roasting pan. Bake at 325° for 2 to 2-1/2 hours or until meat is tender.
Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, combine the remaining ingredients. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from the heat.
Carefully open foil to allow steam to escape. Remove brisket from foil; let stand for 20 minutes. Thinly slice meat across the grain. Place in an ungreased 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish. Spoon sauce over meat. Cover and bake for 1 hour or until heated through.
