No one has ever turned away from my BBQ brisket and always ask for seconds ! If there is any left over we make sandwiches the next day. I have included the instrutions for oven and crock pot cooking. The one in the picture I made yesterday in the oven. This is before adding extra sauce. I prefer to let everyone do that themselves. I chose to serve it with yellow mustard potato salad, baked beans, and crunchy garlic bread. We had home made ice cream for dessert.
