Directions:
Directions:
Place several giant pieces of heavy duty foil down on prep table. Trim excess fat from meat and place in center of foil. Mix the rest of the listed ingredients and pour over the brisket. Wrap several times over with foil and place in pan. Marinate in refrigerator overnight. Next morning, unwrap and turn meat over, sprinkling with pepper. Reseal foil and bake at 200º for eight hrs. Let stand 30 minutes after removing from oven. Take drippings and serve with meat at the dinner table. For best results, slice with electric knife, cutting against the grain of the meat.

Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
The secret to the tenderness of brisket, is to cook slow on low! The boiling point of water is 210 degrees, which is why it's important to keep the temperature around 200, so the juices won't boil away, making for a tough piece of meat. It is also important to cut against the grain of the meat (your blade should be at a 90 degree angle to the grain of meat) to prevent those annoying strings of meat that are hard to chew. Tastes great sliced on sandwiches the next day.
