Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat oven to 275°F. Combine 2 tbsp brown sugar, 1 tbsp smoked paprika, 1 tsp garlic powder, 1 tsp onion powder, 1 tbsp salt, and 1 tsp black pepper in a small bowl. Rub this spice mix evenly over all sides of the 3 lb beef brisket.
- Step 2: Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the brisket for 4-5 minutes per side until a deep brown crust forms.
- Step 3: In a separate bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar, 1/2 cup ketchup, 2 tbsp honey, and 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce to create the BBQ glaze.
- Step 4: Pour half of the BBQ glaze over the brisket, cover the skillet tightly with foil, and roast in the oven for 4-5 hours until the brisket is fork-tender.
- Step 5: Every hour, baste the brisket with remaining glaze. Once done, let rest for 15 minutes before slicing against the grain and serving with extra glaze.
