A yummy brisket recipe

Brisket is a cut of beef taken from the breast and foreshank of the animal below the first five ribs. It is usually sold without the bone, and comes in one of two sections: flat cut, with less fat and a higher price, and the fattier point cut. Because it is a tough piece of meat, timing and patience are the secrets to the perfectly smoked brisket. A good rub and the right sauce will round out your brisket to reach perfection. The flavor makes it worth the wait. Given below is the Brisket recipe for the traditional barbequed brisket:

Traditional Brisket:

Ingredients:
* 10 to 12 pounds of first-cut beef brisket
* 6 c. cold water
* 6 cloves of minced garlic
* 6 large onions sliced
* 1 1/2 tsp. sweet paprika

* Roast the dried brisket in the Dutch oven for half an hour after adding required seasonings.
* Simultaneously golden-fry the onions and add the garlic, paprika, salt and pepper. Stir for a minute and then add water and set it to boil.
* Spread this onion mixture over the brisket and cover Dutch oven, keeping lid ajar 1/2 inch, and bake for 3 1/2 hours. Check every so often if more water needs to be added.
