Oven-Barbecued Brisket

Fall is here! I made this a couple of weeks ago for a friend who just had a baby. I used an 8 pound brisket so I was able to give the family a giant portion, eat some for dinner (tacos!), make a second meal (pasta!) and also freeze about 5 portions for meals later. If you can find a smaller brisket, definitely make this - just half the sauce. Then the leftovers will be a little more manageable. We are stockpiling leftovers around here though because we are expecting a baby in February! So, if our portions are looking a little larger on here, it's because of the leftovers and maybe a little bit because of my growing belly. This recipe came from my Gourmet Today cookbook. The sauce makes it a little sweet and keeps it really juicy. Hope you enjoy it as much as we did.
