Texas-Style Beef Brisket - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 brisket of beef (4 to 6 lb. after trimming)
1 envelope onion soup mix
1 (10 1/2 oz.) can beef bouillon or beef broth
1/4 c. onion, finely chopped
1/2 tsp. hot red pepper, crushed

Preparation

Spread dry soup mix over surface of brisket, then wrap securely, using at least 3 layers of heavy-duty foil.
Seal foil well to hold in all the juices.
Start fire in your barbecue. When coals are white hot, move them to one side.
Place foil wrapped brisket on rack, but not directly above coals.
Cover grill; cook brisket for 3 hours, turning once.
Remove brisket carefully from wrappings, pouring drippings off into glass measuring cup.
Return brisket to grill rack, directly over coals this time, and cook, uncovered, for 30 minutes, until crusty brown, basting with drippings from time to time.
