Slow Cooker Texas Beef Brisket

For some reason, a new baby and a move seem to always happen about the same time for our family.

We’ve moved within two months of the time that I’ve had three out of my four kids. This week we added a new baby to the family and moved into a short-term rental while we’re in between our house closing and finding a new house.

With everything that’s been going on, I’ve really relied on my slow cooker for easy meals. This Slow Cooker Texas Beef Brisket recipe is really easy, and it makes tender beef that’s perfect in sandwiches.

Since it’s Texas-style, the brisket has plenty of flavor. The chile powder just gives the beef flavor but doesn’t make it spicy. Feel free to increase the amount if you’re looking for more kick.

Also, if you’d like to keep it Texas-style, look for a tomato-based barbecue sauce that’s a little spicy and a little sweet.
