Ingredients:  
3 to 4 pounds of a brisket cut of beef
¾ cup barbecue sauce
¼ cup soy sauce
1 cup water
Directions:
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350°.

In a bowl, mix together the barbecue sauce, soy sauce, and water.

Roast the brisket in the oven (2 methods):

Foil method: Place the brisket roast on the large piece of aluminum foil. Spread the barbecue sauce mixture generously over meat. Wrap the brisket in aluminum foil and place it in a roasting pan. Or instead of foil, you can use an oven roasting bag.

Bake for 3 hours for 3 pound roast and 1 hour more for every additional pound of meat.

Oven roasted bag method: Place the barbecue sauce and the brisket in an oven roasting bag. Sprinkle teaspoon of flour in the bag. Poke a couple of small holes in the bag, place the bag in a roasting pan. You may find that the cooking time is faster with this method, or you can reduce the oven temperature to 275°.

Remove the brisket from the oven and let rest for 30 minutes before serving.

The easiest way to serve the roast is to first cut it in half along the grain of the meat (poke the meat with the tip of the knife or tines of a fork to see which way the grain or lines of the muscles are going if you can’t see it from the surface). Then make ¼ inch to ½ inch thick cuts across the grain to serve. (Cutting the meat across the grain will make it much easier to eat, as the cut breaks up the muscle tissue.)
