Steps:
- To make the barbecue sauce, heat the oil in a frying pan, then cook onion and garlic for a few mins until soft. Add the rest of the sauce ingredients to the pan with a good pinch of salt and simmer for 20 mins. Use a hand blender or food processor to whizz to a smooth purée.
- Heat oven to 150C/130C fan/gas 2. Make the rub by mixing all the ingredients together with a pinch of salt. Rub the mix all over the beef and set aside.
- In a large roasting tin, mix the beef stock and ½ the barbecue sauce. Add the brisket to the tin, cover tightly with foil, then cook for 4-5 hrs until the meat is really tender when you push a fork into it. The beef can be prepared the night before - just leave it to cool in the tin covered with foil, but don't refrigerate.
- To finish the beef, get a barbecue fired up and wait until the coals are completely ashen - you want a low, not fierce, heat. Lift the beef out of the roasting tin and place on the barbecue to char. If your barbecue has a lid, close it now. Cook for about 20 mins, turning it carefully with tongs, until lightly charred all over and heated through. Lift onto a board and serve sliced with the remaining barbecue sauce on the side.

Slow Cooker BBQ Beef Recipe from Festival Foods, a grocery store in Green Bay. This recipe was featured on the local morning news. I have made this a few times and it is very good. Not too sugary like most bbq in this area. I often don't even add the ketchup, but that is our family's preference.

Steps:
- Mix brown sugar, chili powder, paprika, salt, pepper, mustard powder, onion powder, and garlic powder for dry rub together in a small bowl.
- Mix beef broth, liquid smoke, and Worcestershire sauce for cooking liquid in a separate bowl.
- Place onions and carrots in a slow cooker. Pour cooking liquid over top and set to temperature High to let it warm up.
- Meanwhile, rinse brisket under cold water. Pat it dry, then season all over with the dry rub. Place brisket in the slow cooker on top of the onions and carrots, with the fatty side facing up. The cooking liquid should reach just to the bottom of the brisket; if not, add a little water.
- Cover and cook on Low for 8 hours. Turn the slow cooker off and transfer brisket to a foil-lined sheet pan. Trim some of the fat if desired.
- Place barbecue sauce in a bowl. Ladle 1/4 cup hot cooking liquid from the slow cooker into the bowl and mix it with the barbecue sauce. Baste the fatty side of the brisket with this mixture.
- Preheat the oven's broiler.
- Place the brisket in the preheated oven so there are 6 inches between the top of the brisket and the burner. Broil until the fatty edges start to crisp up, 2 to 4 minutes; watch closely so it doesn't burn.
- Remove from the oven and let rest for 10 minutes. Slice brisket thinly and against the grain.
- Remove vegetables from the slow cooker with a slotted spoon, and serve alongside the brisket.

Tips:
- Choose the right cut of beef brisket: Look for a brisket that is well-marbled with fat, as this will help to keep the meat moist during the long cooking process.
- Trim the brisket: Remove any excess fat from the brisket, but leave a thin layer of fat on top to help keep the meat moist.
- Season the brisket generously: Rub the brisket all over with a mixture of salt, pepper, and your favorite spices. You can also add a little bit of brown sugar or molasses to help create a flavorful crust.
- Cook the brisket low and slow: The best way to cook a brisket is to cook it low and slow over a long period of time. This will allow the meat to become tender and fall apart easily.
- Wrap the brisket in foil: Once the brisket has been cooking for several hours, wrap it tightly in foil. This will help to keep the meat moist and prevent it from drying out.
- Let the brisket rest before slicing: Once the brisket is cooked, let it rest for at least 30 minutes before slicing. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, making it more tender and flavorful.
Conclusion:
Slow-cooked barbecued beef brisket is a delicious and flavorful dish that is perfect for any occasion. By following the tips above, you can ensure that your brisket turns out tender, juicy, and full of flavor. So next time you're looking for a special meal to impress your friends and family, give slow-cooked barbecued beef brisket a try. You won't be disappointed!
