SLOW-COOKED TENDER BEEF BRISKET

Slow-Cooked Tender Beef Brisket image

Brisket can be difficult to cook, but this recipe always turns out great. I live in the country and have a 60-mile commute to work each day, so I use the slow cooker often. It's a great way to get a good meal on the table for my family after a long day. -Jenni Arnold, Woodbury, Tennessee
