Ingredients

3 pounds beef brisket (thin first-cut)

Coarse salt and ground pepper

2 tablespoons canola oil

1/2 cup freshly brewed black coffee

1/2 cup ketchup

1/2 cup chili sauce

1/2 cup honey

1/3 cup Worcestershire sauce

1 garlic clove, minced

1 tablespoon soy sauce

Preparation

Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Season beef brisket with salt and pepper. In a large Dutch oven over high heat, warm oil. Add brisket, fat side down, and cook until well browned, 4 to 5 minutes per side. Remove from heat. In a small bowl, combine coffee, ketchup, chili sauce, honey, Worcestershire sauce, garlic, and soy sauce. Pour over brisket. Cover; bake, flipping halfway through, until meat shreds easily with a fork, 2 1/2 to 3 hours. Remove from oven; slice on the bias against the grain. Transfer remaining sauce from Dutch oven to a gravy boat, and serve with brisket.
