wonderful! we adjusted the time for a smaller brisket - about 6 lbs and cooked 18 hours or so. I'm not wild about liquid smoke flavoring so left it out, i'm sure if you like smoke flavoring, i'm sure this recipe would still be exceptional! My husband was impressed because it didn't have the typical BBQ sauce flavor, it was subtle and a bit sweet. Excellent recipe! thank you for sharing...

I suppose everyone is different and no one's taste buds are the same, but this recipe was a HUGE hit. One of the best beef recipes I have ever made. I scaled the recipe down to a serving of 6 and did things only slightly differently (mostly just adding a bit more of what the recipe already called for). *covered the bottom of slow-cooker with 1/2 cup of beef brother before adding brisket & coffee *added two extra teaspoons of liquid smoke *added a few extra teaspoons of worcestershire *added four tablespoons of Louisiana Hot Sauce *added an extra couple splashes of cola *added 1/3 cup of my favorite bbq sauce to the homemade sauce cooked meat on low for approximately four hours (only had 3 1/2 pounds of meat), removed dish from slow-cooker, added sauce mixture and refrigerated overnight. The next day I cooked the brisket w/mixture on high for an hour, then low for one more hour. I can't thank allrecipes enough for this fantastic recipe!!!

This is the best brisket I have ever made!!! I didn't have the 25 hours to cook it in, but I left it on high for 5 hours then on low for 2 hours. It was so tender!!!! This is going in to the box.^V^

Excellent recipe! Made it several time, turned out great each time. IMO the key is to get a good roast for a slow cooker. Went to a butcher, he gave me a blade roast. He said it won't be tough when cooked for 24 plus hours. GLTA

Excellent BBQ. I made exactly as directed and it was a huge hit. Even my picky 9 yr old ate it and said it was the best BBQ he ever had. I will be making this again.

Basic and good. I cooked in slow cooker for 24 hours and then moved it to the stove -- I think the taste is better. I also kept ALL the liquid it was cooking in, mixed in the sauce ingredients with a couple of tablespoons of some pepper/garlic seasoning I have, pulled it and let it simmer for an hour. Let it sit another couple of hours and it reduced to a thick sauce. Lovely.

One probably would not imagine putting coffee, cola and brown sugar together on some meat, but I tell ya, this is absolutely by far one of the best recipes! I found it on here about a month ago and this will be my 3rd tirme making it. It has become a staple recipe in my house. If you know you will have a busy day, put this in the crock the night before and dinner will be pretty much ready when you get home! My husband is a pretty picky eater and he can't get enough of this! The only bad part about this recipe is you have to smell it all night and the next day, you won't want to wait until dinner to have it! Thank you Ly for sharing this recipe!
