The Easiest Brisket Ever

Sometimes there are weeks days that you may just need a super easy recipe.  This brisket will come to the rescue!  I adapted this recipe from one that was given to me during a wedding shower before Jack and I got married.  Since leaving at 3pm to go home and put a brisket in the oven might not go over so well at the Bush Center, I made it into a slow cooker recipe.  I sliced the brisket and served it with green beans, salad and corn bread, but it is also delicious shredded for a sandwich.  If you have the time and/or want to put in the effort, you can reduce the sauce in a saucepan on the stove until it thickens.

If you claim that you can't cook, give this one a try and you'll convince yourself you can.

The Easiest Brisket Ever

You will need:
3 lbs trimmed beef brisket
2 tablespoons sea salt
2 tablespoons cracked black pepper
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 cup Coca-Cola
1 cup BBQ sauce

How to make it:
Liberally coat the brisket in the salt, pepper and garlic powder.  Place the seasoned brisket in the bottom of a slow cooker.  Combine the Coca-Cola and BBQ sauce and pour over the brisket.  Cook on low for 9-10 hours.

That's it. Literally.
