Beef brisket is rubbed with spices and liquid smoke, and refrigerated overnight. After roasting, covered, for 5 to 6 hours, it is sliced, sauced, and baked for another hour.
My family begs me to make this creamy baked dish every Thanksgiving and Christmas. What makes it so good is the pecan topping! Try it and I'm sure it will become your new tradition!
