Traditionally, brisket is slow-cooked to achieve tender, flavorful meat, often served with sides like coleslaw and baked beans. Today, it is celebrated in various forms across the U.S. and has gained popularity worldwide for its rich flavor and versatility in dishes.

🥗Healthier: leaner cuts of beef

💰Cheaper: pork shoulder

Pork shoulder is generally less expensive and still provides a rich flavor.

1

Cut the brisket in half, removing the flat.

2

Generously season the brisket with salt, black pepper, Italian seasoning, and rosemary.

3

Cut the brisket to fit in the crock pot and place onion slices all around it.

4

Explain that no additional liquid is needed due to the fat and moisture in the meat, but broth or gravy can be added if desired.

5

Place the brisket in the crock pot and add the onion slices around it.

6

Optionally add liquid smoke to emulate a smoked flavor.

7

Set the crock pot to low and cook for about 8 to 12 hours, checking for tenderness after 8 hours.

8

After about 9 hours, check the brisket for tenderness and remove it from the crock pot to let it rest.

9

Slice the brisket and serve, noting that the fat renders down to keep it moist.
