For this recipe, you need:
* 1 beef brisket, about three pounds or so
and for the sauce you need:
* 1 cup of ketchup
* 1 cup of brewed coffee
* 1 cup of beer
You can cook this dish in the oven, or in a crockpot if you have one.
Trim and Brown the Beef Brisket
Begin by trimming the excess fat from the outside of the beef. This cut is pretty lean, so there is not much that I need to trim off. In a skillet, heat up about one tablespoon of oil over very high heat. When the oil is hot, place the brisket in the skillet and let it brown on all sides. You will only need to let it cook for about thirty seconds or so per side.
Mix the Beef Brisket Sauce
In a large bowl, mix together the coffee, beer, and ketchup. If you are going to cook this in the oven, place the beef in a casserole dish and pour the sauce over it.
Cook the Beef Brisket
Then, cover the dish and let it cook at 350 degrees for about three hours. If you are using a crockpot, place the meat and the sauce in the pot, cover it, and cook it on low for 10 hours or so.
Serve the Beef Brisket
When it is done, the meat should be incredibly tender. Cut it against the grain and serve it topped with the sauce.
