My family has been using this brisket marinade recipe for about 15 years now. So easy, and absolutely to die for! Marinade is good for oven-baked or grilled brisket. You can find liquid smoke at the grocery store, near the bottled marinades.
We liked this, but I altered it a little because when I smelled it the liquid smoke was a little overwhelming. I added some soy sauce and about a tablespoon of molasses to 'cut' the liquid smoke a little. I marinated the brisket over night then smoked it all day, very tender and full of flavor.

My family loves this marinade. I cooked my brisket in the crockpot for about 7 hours, it was wonderful.
For a oven brisket this ones great almost good as texas smoked brisket.I use a trimed brisket it has a little fat on one side it goes fat side up when I bake mine. enjoy
The only change that I made was eliminating the onion salt, and substituted one sliced whole white onion, slice thin. Don't skip on the Red Wine, a Burgundy or a Cabernet works.
This recipe is very good. If you try it on smaller pieces of steak, which would probably be good, also, you might want to halve the pepper. I tried it on a 3 or 4 pound brisket by marinading it for about 3 hours and then grilling it. Very good to excellent taste!
I left out the red wine and used 1 bottle of liquid smoke, celery-garlic & onion salt and let it marinade over night. In morning I added 2 TB. Worcestershire sauce and slow cooked it in crock pot all day (7+ hrs). Delicious and tender.
I had to cut the pepper a little bit too, but I love the liquid smoke flavoring. It doesn't really say how long to marinate or how long to cook the Brisket. So I was a little confused. I only had time to marinate about 1 hour. I browned the brisket on both sides in a skillet, poured on marinade and covered the rest of the way with beef broth. Cooked on stovetop over low heat for 2 1/2 to 3 hours. Wonderful!
I used onion powder instead of onion salt and 2tsp of pepper. I actually marinated ribeye steaks for 48 hours. The steak was very tender and we enjoyed the flavor.
Was pretty good for such an easy recipe. Going to go a few steps farther next time with some variations from other recipes.
I've used this but with a 1/4 cup of brown sugar added and I used soy sauce in place of the worcestershire sauce when I didn't have the worcestershire and it was awesome.
I didn't love this but maybe I was having a bad taste bud day because my husband and daughter really enjoyed it. I cut the recipe in half and used it on a 2 1/2 lb tri-tip and grilled it. I did use onion powder instead of onion salt. Will probably try it again.
Variations to this recipe include: 1/3 cup ketchup, 1/2 cup vinegar, beer, orange peel, garlic cloves instead of garlic salt, orange juice, soy sauce, molasses, onion powder instead of onion salt
Really good! I also added a little bit of kitchen bouquet, and Cajun Power garlic sauce, which is something I have readily available in Louisiana. After marinating, I threw my brisket in a crockpot because it was a small portion that I was cooking it to "top" some baked potatoes. I just halved the recipe since I had less beef.
This is by far my most favorite brisket marinade! I made it exactly with no changes and I’m glad I did; don’t skip any ingredients. I made in in my crockpot for 6-7 hours and was my best brisket ever. As soon as I opened it, it smelled like the recipe from a very popular eatery in town. I knew I had a winner. This will be my new go-to. In addition, I had some marinade left over in my crockpot and put in on a steak and baked potato...so good. I will be passing this recipe to my bestie.
