Equipment

  • Slow Cooker

Ingredients

  • 3.5 lb Beef brisket, Flat Half
  • 1 tablespoon chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 1 teaspoon Hungarian paprika
  • 1 teaspoon coarsely ground pepper
  • 1 teaspoon Smoked Spanish Paprika
  • 2 small onions
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • ¼ cup Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 cup beef broth

Instructions

Prep Ahead Instructions for your Beef Brisket

  • Dice the Onion. Mince the garlic.
  • Cut the Brisket into 2-3 pieces so that it fits into the slow cooker.
  • Mix the 6 Spice Rub ingredients and rub all over the brisket pieces.

Cook your Beef Brisket

  • Add half of the diced onion to the bottom of the slow cooker insert.
  • Place the brisket pieces on top of the onion. Add the remaining diced onion and minced garlic. Pour Worcestershire sauce and beef broth over the roast.
  • Cook roast in slow cooker for 4-6 hours on High setting or 8-10 hours on Low.
  • Once the brisket is done cooking, remove it from slow cooker to a plate or cutting board for pulling or shredding it apart.
  • Using a knife or a fork, scrape away any layer of fat. It should come off very easily. Discard the fat.
  • Then using 2 forks, start to shred the meat. If the piece of meat is really large, you can cut it in half so the beef strands are not too long.
  • Once the meat is shredded, add it back to the cooking liquid in the slow cooker.
