Southern Living’s Slow-Cooker Beef Brisket

Name of Recipe: Southern Living’s Slow-Cooker Beef Brisket
Recipe Owner: Southern Living
Overall Rating:  (4 / 5)

Years ago when we lived in Texas, a friend made this recipe for a party we had at her home. It was so tender and juicy and the first time I had brisket tacos. Wow! This recipe is a game changer for us. Even though it’s been years since we’ve seen each other, I tracked her down on social media and got the recipe! You are welcome! I’ve made it the past two months in a row. It’s not an every week recipe, because brisket is pricey. We made it for a special event and then once to enjoy as a family. It disappears fast! Consider doubling it so you can enjoy it longer.

My favorite thing about this recipe? It’s EASY! It’s a crockpot recipe that barely has any prep! The hardest part is convincing the meat department at the store to only sell you 3 lbs of brisket! Serve with flour and/or corn tortillas and things that you normally top tacos with. It will

be a crowd pleaser for sure – not to mention a little spicy. I did have to Google where to find the “Ground Chipotle Powder” and found it at Target. Enjoy!! This will be one you keep in your recipe box for a long, long time.

The star rating may be lower on this recipe, but that is just because of the amount of time it sits in the crockpot. It takes 15 minutes to prep and that is all.
