-recipe for a tender beef brisket (in the oven)

From Darrell Lampkins…..
Brisket has two tough muscles. Cooking slow is the answer:
So rub it down with a cheap mustard, add your favorite seasoning. And let set for a few hours or over night. Set your oven to 230 and put your brisket in a nice size pan and put it in the oven. Figure 1.5 hours per lb.
sprits or mob with apple juice or a beef broth after the first 3 hours.
Once the brisket reaches an internal temp of 165 then I would wrap it in butcher paper and stick it back in the pan and continue to cook till internal temp reaches 200. Then pull out out of the oven and cover it with foil or lid and place a towel over it and let it rest for an hour or so. Don’t slice it till your ready to eat it if you slice it out will start to dry out. Do you will want to keep it moist. Pour the drippings in the pan over it to keep it moist.
