Oven Smoked Brisket
Oven Smoked Brisket is tender meat that tastes like it has been smoked in a smoker for hours. You don't need a smoker to enjoy this mouthwatering oven smoked brisket. Beef Brisket Smoked In The Oven The best Texas style brisket is tender without falling apart while slicing, and it has that thick layer of smoky, peppery bark surrounding each slice.

When my mother first started cooking brisket, she would cook them in the oven at first, and then, when she got a smoker, she started smoking them.

The briskets you buy in Texas are usually known as a packer cut—this means that it’s the entire chest muscle, and most of the time covered with a generous layer of fat and weighs anywhere from seven to eleven pounds.
