Notes

Oven Brisket Recipe Marinade Variations

  • Spicy - Add 1 tablespoon of red pepper flakes or when it is not Passover you can use 2 tablespoon of sriracha sauce.
  • Less sweet - leave out the honey from the marinade for a less sweet brisket.
  • Smoked brisket - instead of oven slow cooking the brisket, toss it on the smoker or grill. You will need to know how to do this but this marinade is excellent for smoking as well. You can also put ½ teaspoon of liquid smoke into the marinade for a similar effect. If you would rather use a dry rub, try our Kosher Smoked Brisket recipe.
  • Slow Cooker Brisket - if you don't want to make this brisket recipe oven roasted, you can try it in the slow cooker using the same marinade.
