By JJCR

Ingredients

• Sauce:
• 1 beef brisket (4 to 5 lbs.)
• 2 Large onions, sliced
• 1 cup ketchup
• 1 tsp. salt
• 1/2 cup worcestershire sauce
• 3 dashes of tabasco
• 1 tsp. chili powder
• 1 tbsp. brown sugar
• Potatoes and Carrots

Preparation

Step 1

1. Preheat the oven to 4oo degrees.
2. Place the brisket, fat side up, in a roasting pan. Brown in the oven, uncovered, for 30 minutes. Remove from the oven and lay the onions over the meat.
3.Bring all of the ingredients for the sauce to a boil in a small saucepan. Pour the hot sauce over the meat.
4. Reduce the oven temperature to 325 and cook the brisket for 1 1/2 hours, basting often. Remove from the oven and let cool. Cover with aluminum foil and refrigerate overnight.
5. When ready to serve, preheat the oven to 300. Remove any fat that has congealed. Slice the meat and return to the pan. Add the carrots and potatoes. Bake covered, until the meat is very tender, about 1 1/2 hours.

Serve the chopped brisket in buns.
