Place the beef brisket in the slow cooker with the fat cap up.

Squirt coarse ground dijon mustard generously over the brisket.

Pour 1 cup of water around the sides of the brisket, avoiding the top to keep the seasoning intact.

Cover the slow cooker and cook on low for 6 to 8 hours, checking for tenderness.

When done, the brisket should bend easily when lifted, indicating it's tender enough to shred or slice.

Remove the brisket from the slow cooker and serve as is or with barbecue sauce on a bun for pulled beef sandwiches.
