Ingredients:

3 lbs beef brisket

2 large onions, sliced

4 garlic cloves, minced

1 cup beef broth

1/2 cup barbecue sauce

2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce

2 tbsp olive oil

1 tbsp smoked paprika

1 tbsp brown sugar

1 tsp ground mustard

1 tsp salt

1/2 tsp black pepper

Fresh thyme, for garnish (optional)

Directions:

Season the Brisket:
Pat the beef brisket dry. Mix smoked paprika, brown sugar, ground mustard, salt, and black pepper in a small bowl. Rub the spice blend all over the meat for deep, smoky flavor.

Sear for Flavor:
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the brisket for 2–3 minutes per side until a golden crust forms this locks in juices and flavor.

Layer in the Slow Cooker:
Add sliced onions and minced garlic to the bottom of your slow cooker. Place the seared brisket on top.

Mix and Pour:
In a bowl, whisk beef broth, barbecue sauce, and Worcestershire sauce. Pour the mixture over the brisket for a rich, savory base.

Slow Cook to Perfection:
Cover and cook on LOW for 8–10 hours until the brisket is fork-tender and juicy.

Rest, Slice & Serve:
Let the brisket rest for 10 minutes, then slice against the grain. Drizzle with sauce and garnish with fresh thyme.
