Ingredients

1 each boneless beef brisket 6 to 8 pounds

2 tsp paprika

1 tsp Ground black pepper divided

1 tbsp butter

1 each medium onion grated

1 1/2 cup Ketchup

1 tbsp Fresh lemon juice

1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce

1 tsp Hot pepper sauce


Directions

Trim external fat on beef brisket to 1/4 inch. Combine paprika and 1/2 tsp of the black pepper; rub evenly over surface of beef brisket. Place brisket, fat side down, in 11 1/2 x 9" disposable foil pan. Add 1 cup water. Cover pan tightly with aluminum foil. Place in center of grid over very low coals ( use a single layer of coals with space in between each); cover cooker. Cook 5-6 hours, turning brisket over every 1 1/2 hours; use baster to remove fat from pan as it accumulates. Add 1/2 cup water, if needed, to pan during cooking. (Add just enough briquette during cooking to keep coals at a very low temperature). Remove brisket from pan; place on grid, fat side down, directly over very low coals. Reserve pan dripping. Cover, continue cooking for 30 minutes to 1 hour. Meanwhile, ski, fat from pan drippings; reserve 1 cup drippings. Melt butter in medium saucepan over medium heat. Add onion; cook until tender crisp. Add reserved pan drippings, remaining 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, ketchup, lemon juice, worcestershire sauce and hot pepper sauce; simmer for 15 minutes. Carve brisket into thin slices across the grain; serve with sauce. Garnish with fresh peppers and lemon and lime slices.
