Beef brisket is traditionally cooking low and slow for many hours in a smoker. Another way to cook it is in a dutch oven. It will taste different, because you won't have the smoky flavor, but it will come out very nice and tasty in the Dutch oven.

Prep time: 15 mins
Cook time: 7 hours
Total time: 7 hours 15 mins
Ingredients
- 3-4 lb brisket
- Seasoned meat tenderizer
- 3 tbs flour
- Salt
- Pepper
Instructions
- Coat the beef brisket well with the meat tenderizer.
- Wrap the brisket with 2 layers of heavy duty foil and refrigerate overnight.
- When ready to cook, place it in the Dutch oven, cover and cook with low to medium heat for about 6 to 7 hours. This would be 6-8 coals underneath and 10-12 on top. Since this is going to cook for a long time, you'll need to replenish the coals at least every hour.
- When done, remove the brisket from the foil and put it on a warmed serving platter. Make a thin gravy with the flour, juice, and salt and pepper. Pour the gravy over brisket before you serve it. Or omit and gravy and serve with BBQ sauce on the side.
P.S., For more Dutch Oven Recipes, I recommend Best of the Black Pot. It has some delicious recipes and is great whether you are an beginner or an expert in Dutch oven cooking

You have what I consider the best website of anyone. I really enjoy you recepies and videos. The bread on a stick is one of my favorites, especially when I take the grandsons to the farm.
Thanks again for your courtesy.

Ronny, thanks! I think the bread on the stick is on of the first things I ever cooked over a fire (other than a hot dog and marshmallows) along with a foil dinner in the Boy Scouts.
