After months of testing, I finally finished the oven Brisket Recipe. As I mentioned in the video, the majority of the recipe was made by one of my subscribers, Donovan Gibson. I couldn't have done it without him! I had completely different recipe before I started talking to him and my recipe was greatly improved as a result.
Shout out to @SmokeTrailsBBQ @chefsteps and @thatdudecancook because trying out their recipes really helped me develop my own and also practice cooking briskets in the oven. Make sure to check out their channels!
