Ingredients

1 beef brisket - (5 to 7 lbs)

2 teaspoons seasoned salt

cup brown sugar - (packed)

2 tablespoons cider vinegar

1 cup chili sauce

1 can beer - (12 oz)

Preparation

Season brisket well with seasoned salt. Sprinkle or rub meat with brown sugar, then drizzle with vinegar. Cover with chili sauce using back of a spoon. Sprinkle with beer.

Bake at 325 degrees uncovered 2 hours. Cover and continue cooking until done, 1 1/2 to 3 hours.

Remove meat from gravy and cool. Allow gravy to cool. Skim fat. Add water to dilute, as gravy will be a little strong. Taste and adjust seasonings.

Slice meat, then place slices in an oven-proof casserole. Cover with gravy and seal tightly with foil. Heat at 325 degrees until very tender, another 45 to 90 minutes.

This recipe yields 10 to 12 servings.
