Beef Brisket Marinade Recipes

MARINATED BEEF BRISKET

Steps:

• Shake flour in the oven bag; place in ungreased 13-in. x 9-in. baking pan. Combine the Worcestershire sauce, garlic salt, onion salt, pepper and liquid smoke if desired; rub over both sides of brisket. Place in the oven bag. Close with tie and refrigerate for 8 hours or overnight, turning occasionally. Combine ketchup, brown sugar, lemon juice, mustard and hot pepper sauce; spread over brisket. Close oven bag with nylon tie; cut six 1/2-in. slits in top of bag. Return to pan. Bake at 325° for 2-1/2 to 3 hours or until beef is tender. If desired, thicken pan juices to serve with beef.

BEEF BRISKET MARINADE

Steps:

• Mix all ingredients.
• Marinate brisket 8-24 hours( I like to use an oven roasting bag).
• Slow roast 4- 5 hours at 250 degrees.
• Allow the brisket to rest before slicing thinly across the grain.

BRISKET MARINADE

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, combine wine, Worcestershire sauce and liquid smoke. Stir in celery flakes, onion salt, garlic salt, and pepper.

BRAISED BEEF BRISKET

Steps:

• Combine the beef consomme, soy sauce, lemon juice, liquid smoke and garlic in a large roasting pan (a disposable is just fine). Place the brisket in the marinade, fat-side up. Cover tightly with foil. Marinate in the refrigerator for 24 to 48 hours.
• When ready to cook, preheat the oven to 300 degrees F.
• Cook the brisket in the foil-covered pan until fork-tender, about 40 minutes per pound (6 to 7 hours). Transfer to a cutting board, slice against the grain and put the slices back into the cooking liquid. Serve immediately, spooning the juice over the slices. (Barbecue sauce may be used, if preferred.)
• You may store the pan in the fridge for up to 2 days, or freeze for use at a later date. If fat collects and hardens at the top, remove and discard.
• Brisket is great with mashed potatoes, with the juice spooned over the top. It is also great on a sandwich with melted cheese.

TONY'S SMOKED BEEF BRISKET

Steps:

• In a bowl combine all the dry ingredients and blend well.
• Trim the brisket, leaving about 1/4-inch of fat. Season the brisket with about 1/4 cup of the rub (see Cook's Note). Let the brisket marinate overnight in the refrigerator.
• Preheat your grill to 250 degrees F using charcoal and hickory.
• Using indirect heat, cook the brisket for 3 1/2 hours and flip. Cook another 3 1/2 hours, cooking for a total of 7 hours. (About 1 1/2 hours per pound.) The brisket should cook to an internal temperature of 185 degrees F.
• Rest for 10 minutes on a cutting board before slicing. Slice brisket against the grain.

MARINATED BEEF BRISKET

Steps:

• Carefully slit just one end of the Cryovac bag, and remove the brisket, saving the bag.
• Rinse off the brisket, trim off any surface that looks like age, but leave on as much of the fat as possible, rinse again, and set aside.
• Rinse out bag, and set aside.
• You will be using it to marinate the meat if you don't have any giant food-safe bags.
• Alternately, you can use a roasting bag, such as the ones made by Reynolds.
• Do not use a garbage bag.
• They are not food-safe!
• Combine all of the liquid ingredients in a small bowl, except for the olive oil, and stir to combine.
• Add all of the dry ingredients, and stir to dissolve whatever is likely to dissolve.
• Start with the minimal amounts of spices, and work your way upward, stirring and tasting as you go.
• The marinade should be quite spicy!
• Whisk the olive oil into the marinade.
• Return the brisket to the Cryovac bag, and add the marinade, letting it drizzle down the sides of the meat.
• Squeeze out as much air as possible, and staple the end shut; the easiest way to do this is to fill the sink with water and let the water help do the squeezing.
• Massage the marinade into the meat, seal the Cryovac bag into a garbage bag to contain leaks, and it WILL leak!
• Place in the refrigerator, and marinate in refrigerator for at least 2 days, preferably longer, up to 5 days, massaging and turning over 2-3 times a day.
• Fold together the edge of 2 large pieces of heavy-duty foil to make a single piece large enough to enclose meat.
• Place the meat and marinade on the foil, seal it in, folding up all edges to seal.
• Alternately, place meat and the marinade in a large roasting bag, squeeze out air, and close the bag (I thought of this after the fact, of course!).
• Place meat on a rack in a roasting pan, fat side up so it will self baste, and roast in a 250-275 degree F for about 4-5 hours, until it reaches an internal temperature of about 130 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer.
• Carefully cut open the bag to expose meat, being careful not to burn yourself with the hot juices.
• Poke a couple hole in the bottom to let juices drain into the pan, and pull out bag or foil from under the meat, letting meat rest on the roasting rack.
• Return to oven, and continue roasting until internal temperature of meat reaches 150 degrees F, about another 1 hour or less.
• The meat will be pretty well done, but it will still be juicy due to the slow cooking.
• Remove roasting pan from oven, and allow brisket to rest at least 15 minutes before cutting.
• Trim off and discard all external fat before carving across the grain.
• Strain and degrease the pan drippings to use for jus or gravy.
• The drippings will be WAY TOO SALTY and SPICY to use as-is, so dilute to taste with low-sodium canned chicken broth and water before using or freezing.
• I ended up needing 2 cans of chicken broth and 4 cups of water to dilute 4 cups of drippings, and the jus was still very tasty!
