1 -4lb Beef brisket, submerged in water and simmered (see below)

2 T pickling spice of choice

BBQ Whisky Glaze

¼ cup ketchup

¼ cup whisky

¼ cup apple cider vinegar

2 T brown sugar

2 T soy sauce

Brining the beef brisket-in a pot of water add 2 T pickling spice.  Make sure the brisket is fat side up and completely covered with liquid.  Cover and simmer on low heat until beef is tender about 3-3 ½ hours.

Pre-heat oven to 450 degrees.  Foil line a rimmed baking dish and coat with olive oil and place a cooling rack over the top.  Remove brisket from pot and remove any excess fat.  Set aside to prepare the glaze.

In a medium sauce pan whisk together remaining ingredients and bring to a boil on high heat for about 3-4 minutes until thickened.  Spoon the glaze over the roast and place in oven and roast 10 minutes, or until the glaze is dark and sticky.  Remove from the oven and let rest for 10-15 minutes.

Transfer the brisket to a cutting board and thinly slice against the grain.  Serve with roasted carrots, potatoes and cabbage.
