Instructions

  1. Step 1: In a small bowl, combine 2 tbsp smoked paprika, 1 tbsp garlic powder, 1 tbsp brown sugar, 1 1/2 tsp salt, and 1 tsp black pepper to create the rub.
  2. Step 2: Pat dry 3 lbs beef brisket with paper towels, then rub 2 tbsp olive oil evenly over the surface.
  3. Step 3: Generously apply the smoked paprika rub all over the brisket, pressing it into the meat.
  4. Step 4: Preheat oven to 275°F (135°C). Place brisket fat side up in a roasting pan and pour 1 cup beef broth around it.
  5. Step 5: Cover pan tightly with foil and slow-roast for 4 to 5 hours until fork-tender and internal temperature reaches about 195°F.
  6. Step 6: Remove foil and increase oven temperature to 400°F; roast uncovered for an additional 15 minutes to develop a crust.
  7. Step 7: Rest brisket for 20 minutes before slicing thinly against the grain and serving with pan juices.
