Heritage Meats Beef Brisket

Recipes

Ingredients

  • 4-5 lb. beef brisket (fat cap on)

  • 1/4 cup of Worcestershire Sauce

  • 1/2 cup of cold coffee

  • 1/4 cup of apple cider vinegar

  • 6 cloves of garlic, diced

  • 1 onion, diced

  • 1-2 jalapeño peppers (for those that want heat, seeded if you want mild)

  • 2 Tbs. kosher or sea salt

  • 2 Tbs. black pepper

  • 2 Tbs. cayenne pepper

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 250 degrees Fahrenheit.
  2. Allow brisket to approach room temperature
  3. In a small bowl combine salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper. Rub this mixture over entire brisket--apply especially to the fat cap. As the fat renders it will carry the seasoning throughout the brisket).
  4. Place the brisket fat-side up in a roasting pan that can be covered with a lid (foil also works!).
  5. Blend the diced onion, diced garlic, and jalapeño (if you choose to include it) and spread evenly over the seasoned fat cap.
  6. In a mixing bowl combine soy sauce, cold coffee, Worcestershire sauce, and vinegar. Pour this mixture around the roast, but try not to disturb the seasoning blend on the fat cap.
  7. Cover with lid or foil and bake for 5-6 hours or until fork tender.
  8. Remove brisket from pan, cover with foil (shiny side down!) and allow the roast to rest for 20 minutes.
  9. Slice across the muscle grain, serve and enjoy!
