My brother just dropped off a big ass low fat brisket. He got 8 of them free because the box was damaged (bag is still sealed) when he got to TX. My big GE slow cooker (family hand down, oooollldddd lead paint type model) isnt big enough for it or I would do BBQ sandwiches. I dont have a smoker. How should I cook this bad boy?

You can try my grandmothers recipe it's super easy. Either in a slow cooker or the oven, 2 packets onion soup mix, one bottle chili sauce, 1 can of your favorite light beer. In a slow cooker on low for 6-8 hours or in an oven at 325 for 3-4 hours. Makes the juiciest meat and most incredible gravy ever.

Screw Hbar, i'm closer.
If I was to cheat some smoke flavor into something like that, I'd throw it on the charcoal grill to cook the outside, then slow cook it (braise in the oven or throw it in the crockpot). You don't have to leave it whole if you put it in the crockpot, cut it up so it fits, and let it break down.

I guess I will chop it up an throw it in the cooker tonight so tomorrow I can have a big ol slow cooked brisket dinner MMMMMmmmmm
How would you do it in the oven? To slow cook it and keep it moist?

Better watch out HBAR.. I'd hate to see ol'jim run to the mods that you hurt his feeling.

Monky: Does the phrase "lay low" sound familiar?

Trlcavscout: Sounds like you've got a great meal ahead of you. Post up and tell us how it was.

SHHHHHHHHHHH let's keep it our secret.
In reality anyone who does something like that will also snitch you off to the feds if gun confiscation was happening. Just saying.
Cut it in half. The end bits are the best anyways
