Ingredients:  
5 lb. beef brisket

Directions:
Season brisket with salt & pepper; place fat side up on a rack in a roasting pan. Place sliced onions, whole celery ribs and chili sauce on top of the meat. Add 1/4 c. water to bottom of pan. Roast, uncovered, in 325º oven, basting often with drippings until meat becomes well-browned. Cover tightly with foil at this point.
After meat has cooked 3 hours, pour beer over meat. Cover and bake 1 - 2 hours longer, or until meat is really tender. Meat should cook about 1 hr. per pound.
Remove meat from pan; cool. Strain gravy into a bowl; let sit until fat rises to top. Skim off as much fat as possible. Slice meat and reheat in gravy, adding about 1/2 c. more water, if needed.
