BRISKET OF BEEF 
3 to 3 1/2 lb. brisket
1/2 c. brown sugar
1 pkg. onion soup mix
1 tsp. garlic powder
3/4 c. catsup

Preheat oven at 325 degrees. Line roasting pan with heavy foil (enough so whole brisket can be covered and sealed or use oven cooking bag according to directions). Sprinkle or mix together topping and place on brisket. Seal. Bake for 3 to 3 1/2 hours.

I use oven cooking bag. It browns well and there is an abundance of juice for gravy.

This is so good. Every time I've made it, people ask for the recipe. I would recommend using the cooking bag and I use beefy onion soup mix. You can also let this cool, slice, then put in a crock pot with the juice and it's even better! LOVE IT!
