I have only made Brisket in the oven once, mainly because I have no shortage of smokers, but my Grandpa used to make Brisket in the oven all of the time. Here is his recipe:

Texas Oven Roasted Brisket

Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons chili powder
• 2 tablespoons salt
• 1 tablespoon garlic powder
• 1 tablespoon onion powder
• 1 tablespoon ground black pepper
• 1 tablespoon sugar
• 2 teaspoons dry mustard
• 1 bay leaf, crushed
• 4 pounds beef brisket, trimmed
• 1 1/2 cups beef stock

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

Make a dry rub by combining chili powder, salt, garlic and onion powders, black pepper, sugar, dry mustard, and bay leaf. Season the raw brisket on both sides with the rub. Place in a roasting pan and roast, uncovered, for 1 hour.

Add beef stock and enough water to yield about 1/2 inch of liquid in the roasting pan. Lower oven to 300 degrees F, cover pan tightly and continue cooking for 3 hours, or until fork-tender.

Whether you cook it in the oven or on the smoker, I always retain the juices "drippings" and add the you salvage after you slice it, and put in a pot on the stove, bring to a simmer and add a pack of Wick Fowler's 3 Alarm Chili Spice Mix, (if you can find it), and whisk it in and serve in a bowl as a dipping sop. Trust me you will get addicted to it!!!!!!!! Serve your brisket with some white bread, some fresh sweet onion, some pickle slices, and a big hunk of cheddar cheese.

If you have time (and if your brisket has a point), don't forget to make some burnt ends. They're my favourite part of the brisket.

And man, take some pics.
