I’m a big fan of brisket but I live in an apartment complex. The other day I was at Kroger and found a brisket that said it was approaching its expiration date. It was marked down from 70 dollars to 21 dollars. It’s 14 pounds and it’s a full brisket. On impulse I bought it. Now I’m curious if I can actually cook it and make it tender like a 13 hour grill would.
Summary
- Cook the brisket in the oven low and slow for best results.
- Season the brisket liberally with salt, pepper, and other spices like paprika and garlic powder.
- Rest the brisket once it’s cooked for a tender texture.
- Slicing the brisket correctly is crucial for the best eating experience.

Raze321 suggests trimming the brisket, seasoning it with smoked paprika and chipotle powder, and using a small amount of liquid smoke to recoup some of the smoky flavor lost in the oven cooking process.
