Beef Brisket Tips
Can you make this beef brisket recipe in a slow cooker?
Yes. Prepare the recipe as directed. Instead of putting it in the oven, however, transfer beef to a 5- or 6-qt. slow cooker. Pour the vinegar mixture over beef. Cover and cook on low until tender, 6-8 hours, basting occasionally. You can also try this

How do you make beef brisket tender?
Simply put, brisket naturally benefits from long, slow cook times. The cooking process is usually enough to tenderize brisket, but some swear by
these tips—as well as resting the meat before slicing and cutting against the grain when serving.
How do you store beef brisket?
Store cooked beef brisket in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3-4 days.
What can you serve with this beef brisket recipe?
Brisket is great served alone with
barbecue sauce and
pickled red onions, but it can also be served with side salads like coleslaw or on a sandwich or
brisket sliders.
