Excellent. I made mine in the crockpot and it was still excellent. Made superb brisket sandwiches.

While I normally cook brisket in my crock-pot .. This recipe saved me when my crock-pot hit the dust the morning I needed it. Because of the altitude I live at (7700ft) I did end up adding a little H2O and extra beer. It turned out great! (I used an amber beer, which I think added to the flavor)

I also made a smaller version of this recipe due to the size of brisket I got. I used half a bottle of beer. I followed most of the recipe and the changes I made were very minor; such as adding 2 tbs. bourbon and also using Hickory flavored Liquid Smoke. Now after having made this I have to say that it was good but we weren't blown away by this recipe. I think that we like to have a nice rub made with a spice mixture because the flavor in this was just ok for us. The reason I am still giving it a four star rating is because it turned out moist and tasted better the next day. Maybe like others suggested, it just needed to marinate for a while longer.

This recipe just didn't provide as much flavor as we had hoped for. The brisket was tender but lacked in the taste department. My search for a great brisket recipe will continue.

This was a delicious recipe. It was the first brisket I ever made and everyone highly enjoyed it!! Thank you so much for sharing! I followed the recipe exactly and opted not to use the beer. Great!!

This brisket turned out very well, but like many others on this site I played with it a bit. 1. Used beer 2. Left out the molasses 3. Used one 6 oz. bottle of cayenne pepper sauce (I used Trappey's Red Devil, don't worry, it's not hot) 4. Mixed all the ingredients, except the onions which I just threw on top of the brisket, then poured it over the brisket 5. I used an oven bag (these are great for slow cooking). Save the leftover liquid (there will be a lot) as a makeshift BBQ sauce. You can use the oven bag as a gravy seperator by holding it up for a minute letting the fat flow to the top, then poke a hole in the bottom of the bag pouring the liquid into another container. If you have an actual gravy seperator, that's even better.
