Ingredients

1 beef brisket (about 5 pounds)
2 tablespoons canola oil
1 medium onion, sliced
Salt and pepper to taste
1 cup water
1 bottle (18 ounces) barbecue sauce

Directions

In a Dutch oven, brown beef in oil on both sides over medium-high heat; drain. Top with onion, salt and pepper. Add water; cover and bake at 325° for 2-1/2 hours or until tender.
Remove beef. Cool for 5 minutes; cover and refrigerate overnight.
Discard onion and cooking liquid. Slice meat 1/4 in. thick across the grain; place in a roasting pan. Drizzle with barbecue sauce. Cover and bake at 325° for 30-45 minutes or until heated through.

<b>Editor’s Note:</b> Refrigerating the beef overnight makes it possible to slice it very thinly.
