Lone Star Brisket in Chili Sauce and Beer

From Stop and Smell the Rosemary

Ingredients: 

1 brisket (5 to 7 pounds), trimmed
2½ teaspoon seasoned salt
¼ teaspoon freshly ground pepper
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 onions, sliced and separated into rings
2 ribs celery, chopped
1 bottle (12 oz) chili sauce
¼ cup water
12 ounces beer, at room temperature

Recipe directions: 

Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Sprinkle brisket with seasoned salt, pepper and garlic. Place brisket in roasting pan, fat side up. Add onions and celery in a single layer over top of brisket, covering brisket completely. Pour chili sauce over brisket. Pour ¼ cup water into chili sauce bottle, shake and pour over meat. Roast uncovered 1½ hours, basting every 30 minutes. Pour beer over meat. Cover tightly with foil and roast an additional 3 to 4 hours, depending on size of brisket. Remove brisket from gravy and place on a carving board. Refrigerate gravy or chill quickly by placing in freezer. When cooled, slice meat without disturbing the shape of the brisket. Slide the brisket back into pan. When gravy is cold, skim fat and pour gravy over brisket. Put back into the oven to reheat. Serve immediately. This freezes well, already sliced. Serves 8
