Slow Cooker Brisket Video
Beef brisket: Trim the beef of any excess fat, rinse, and pat dry before using. Beef bouillon: Adds a wonderful depth of flavor to the BBQ brisket. Worcestershire sauce: You just need 2 tablespoons, but it really makes a difference to the brisket. Soy sauce: I recommend using reduced sodium soy sauce so you can control the amount of salt in this slow cooker brisket. Special spice rub: My homemade spice rub combines paprika, brown sugar, chili powder, garlic powder, and more. It’s incredibly flavorful! Homemade bbq sauce: If you’re going to take the time to cook an expensive cut of meat like brisket, you really should make your own BBQ sauce to go with it. Trust me on this one! My homemade BBQ has received hundreds rave reviews on my BBQ Ribs post and will convert you forever!
If you can’t find blackberry preserves, I’ve had readers comment they have also used strawberry preserves, raspberry preserves, fig preserves and apple jam with success. You can use any brown sugar you have on hand – light, medium or dark. You can use granulated sugar or honey if that’s all you have on hand but, in this case, I would reduce the sugar by a tablespoon or two and add extra molasses in its place. You can also use a blend of sweeteners.
Any way you serve it, this comforting, convenient, luxurious beef brisket will have you and all your guests “oohing” and “ahhhing” for more!
Homemade BBQ sauce really is best for this recipe, but if you’re short on time and energy, store-bought will work. This slow cooker brisket needs to cook on low for a looong time. Don’t try cooking it on high, otherwise the BBQ brisket won’t turn out as fork tender. If your brisket isn’t tender, it just needs more time – so cook, even 30 minutes can make a difference. Feel free to slice or shred this BBQ beef brisket — it’s delicious either way!
Make it sweeter: Add more brown sugar. Make it tangier: Add additional apple cider vinegar. Make it smokier: Add additional liquid smoke, ½ teaspoon at a time. Make it spicier: Add additional chipotle chili powder for smoky heat or cayenne pepper for penetrating heat.
