- 1 cup beef broth
- 1/2 cup barbecue sauce
- 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
Instructions
- Trim excess fat from the brisket.

Notes
- For a richer flavor, you can add a tablespoon of liquid smoke to the sauce.
- If the sauce is too thin, you can thicken it by whisking in a tablespoon of cornstarch mixed with two tablespoons of cold water during the last 30 minutes of cooking.
