How to cook deliciously - Slow Cooker Beef Brisket

1. Stage

Mix brown sugar, chili powder, paprika, salt, pepper, mustard powder, onion powder, and garlic powder for dry rub together in a small bowl.

2. Stage

Mix beef broth, liquid smoke, and Worcestershire sauce for cooking liquid in a separate bowl.

3. Stage

Place onions and carrots in a slow cooker. Pour cooking liquid over top and set to temperature High to let it warm up.

4. Stage

Meanwhile, rinse brisket under cold water. Pat it dry, then season all over with the dry rub. Place brisket in the slow cooker on top of the onions and carrots, with the fatty side facing up. The cooking liquid should reach just to the bottom of the brisket; if not, add a little water.

5. Stage

Cover and cook on Low for 8 hours. Turn the slow cooker off and transfer brisket to a foil-lined sheet pan. Trim some of the fat if desired.

6. Stage

Place barbecue sauce in a bowl. Ladle 1/4 cup hot cooking liquid from the slow cooker into the bowl and mix it with the barbecue sauce. Baste the fatty side of the brisket with this mixture.

7. Stage

Preheat the oven's broiler.

8. Stage

Place the brisket in the preheated oven so there are 6 inches between the top of the brisket and the burner. Broil until the fatty edges start to crisp up, 2 to 4 minutes; watch closely so it doesn't burn.

9. Stage

Remove from the oven and let rest for 10 minutes. Slice brisket thinly and against the grain.

10. Stage

Remove vegetables from the slow cooker with a slotted spoon, and serve alongside the brisket.
