Crock Pot BBQ Brisket

This easy slow cooker beef BBQ Brisket is tender, juicy, and full of flavor. It is cooked slowly over the day as the flavor from the brisket rub infuses into the meat making an amazingly delicious brisket with very little effort!

Instructions

To make the brisket rub:

  1. Combine all ingredients in the rub and mix to combine.

To prepare the brisket:

  1. Rub the brisket on all sides thoroughly with the brisket rub.
  2. Combine the barbecue sauce and broth in the bottom of the crock pot and mix. Lay the brisket on top of the BBQ sauce.
  3. Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours or until the meat is tender and cooked through.
  4. Remove brisket and slice, or shred, and return to sauce mixture.
  5. Serve hot with your favorite sides, on a bun, or on a baked potato.

Optional:

  1. Once the brisket is done in the slow cooker, remove the brisket (in one piece) and place it on a baking sheet. Line the baking sheet with foil for easy clean up.
  2. Bake for 15 minutes at 450˚F to get the smoked BBQ brisket color and texture on the outside of the brisket. The outside of the brisket will darken in color and the edges will begin to crisp as the inside stays tender and juicy.
