Ingredients
- 3 pounds Beef Brisket
- 1 tablespoon Smoked Paprika
- 2 teaspoons Garlic Powder
- 2 teaspoons Onion Powder
- 1 teaspoon Ground Black Pepper
- 1 cup Tomato Paste
- 0.5 cup Apple Cider Vinegar
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 1 teaspoon Liquid Smoke
- 0.5 teaspoon Cayenne Pepper
- 1 teaspoon Ground Mustard
- 1 cup Water
Directions
Step 1
Begin by preparing the spice rub. In a small bowl, mix together smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, cayenne pepper, and ground mustard.
Step 2
Rub the spice mixture all over the beef brisket, ensuring it is evenly coated. Let it sit at room temperature for about 20 minutes to allow the flavors to penetrate the meat.
Step 3
In a separate bowl, prepare the BBQ sauce by combining the tomato paste, apple cider vinegar, honey, liquid smoke, and water. Mix until smooth.
Step 4
Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C).
Step 5
Place the brisket in a large baking dish or roasting pan. Pour half of the BBQ sauce over the brisket, reserving the other half for later.
Step 6
Cover the baking dish tightly with foil and place in the preheated oven.
Step 7
Bake for approximately 5 to 6 hours, or until the brisket is tender and easily shreds with a fork.
Step 8
Once cooked, remove the brisket from the oven. Allow it to rest for about 15 minutes before slicing.
Step 9
Serve the sliced brisket with the remaining BBQ sauce drizzled on top or on the side. Enjoy your flavorful, low sodium beef BBQ!
