While my kids were in high school, I spent a lot of time in the costume shop at the school. One of my favorite things about it was the opportunity it gave me to meet some of the other moms of my children’s friends.
And it never fails, when moms get together, the conversation always makes it around to, “So what are you having for dinner?” I love to ask that question. I have gotten a lot of great new recipes by asking it.
Today’s recipe is one that I got from a costume shop conversation back in 2009! It is so easy and delicious that it has been in our dinner rotation ever since.
This dish is so simple you won’t even need to print the recipe! Just place your brisket in the crock pot. Squirt mustard over the top. I like to use a Spicy Brown Mustard but Cindy, who gave me the recipe, used regular old yellow mustard.
Next, mix one package of Lipton’s Onion Soup Mix with one cup of water and pour it over brisket
Then let it cook on low for 8 hours! And that is it! Delicious slow cooker brisket.
It is great served with a side of mashed potatoes.
BBQ Beef Brisket
After enjoying the brisket and mashed potatoes the first night, I shredded the left over brisket, added some barbecue sauce, and made BBQ beef brisket sandwiches for dinner the next night.
Dinner doesn’t get much easier than this. Only four ingredients and you end up with two nights of delicious dinner.

Curious. Would maybe using beef broth be better than using water?
I like! I like! Thank you!
So glad – it’s a good one!
Thanks for this super easy recipe, I tweaked it just a bit, but it was very helpful 🙂
Glad you enjoyed it!
This looks yummy 🙂 I have something similar in my crockpot right now: crockpot French Dip. You shred the beef, put it on French rolls, then dip it in the liquid it cooked in (2 c. water, 1/2 c. soy sauce, and some spices). Yum. I’m happy to have discovered your blog and am looking forward to poking around some more.
I had brisket for the first time when we moved to TX. I thought I had died and gone to heaven. I will defiantly be trying this!
I love your texture issues….they are giving me a glimpse of what Laura will be like 40 years from now!!
And brisket doesn’t make me think of Texas, it makes me think Jewish!! LOL!
You’re funny with your texture issues! This sounds really good. I love it when the meat is so tender that it just falls apart! YUM.
MUST try this (do I say that about every one of your recipes??) You’re invited to celebrate Spring on my blog today with some *really* fun things to giveaway.
Thanks as always for the delicious inspiration!
I have this recipe back from our once a month cooking days. It’s still a favorite of my kids and oh so easy. After cooking I remove the meat and make a gravy with with the drippings. After shredding the meat I put it back into the gravy, stir it around a bit, then serve it up on hoagie buns…yum!
Thanks for the brisket recipe! I make so many roasts in the crockpot..I actually love them that way! I’ve never used mustard before, but I always mix up an onion soup pack and prepare the way you described! I make roast beef sandwiches with au jus for leftovers, and sometimes make a roast beef hash. I will have to try the BBQ sandwich tip…I usually have a brand new bottle of sauce at the ready since we don’t use it that regularly and almost always expires! Too funny!!
LOL — I love that you have “texture” issues as well! There are whole categories of foods I can’t tolerate…all because of texture!
We’re trying your Cafe Rio Pork next week — it sounds so good!
