Ever want to make a Delicious Oven Cooked Barbecue Brisket because you don’t have a smoker or it’s too cold to BBQ outside? Well here’s the perfect recipe for you.
Now before I even get started, you must know that brisket takes between 45 to 60 minutes per pound to cook in the oven. I give a 15-minute buffer depending on how you like it cooked.
Since cuts of meat come in all different sizes, you WILL need to adjust your cooking time based on the weight of the brisket you buy. You need to do the math on this one.
Additionally, you will need to adjust the amount of seasoning accordingly depending on the weight of the brisket you use. It doesn’t have to be precise but if you are 1 or 2 pounds off of what I have listed on the recipe card, you will need to adjust.
A purist will absolutely HATE that this recipe calls for Liquid Smoke. Many believe it has an overwhelming, chemical taste.
If this applies to you, you need to come up with a substitute. Smoked Paprika appears to be the closest substitute. You decide.

How to Make Oven Cooked Barbecue Brisket
- In a small bowl whisk together celery salt, garlic powder, and onion salt. Season both sides of the brisket.
- Place meat in a foil-lined baking pan that is big enough to enclose the meat. Pour liquid smoke and Worcestershire sauce over the meat and as it drips to the side lift the meat up so the liquid also seasons under the meat.
- Crimp the foil tightly over the meat. Put in refrigerator and marinate overnight.
- Preheat the oven to 275°F.
- Bring the meat to room temperature, for approximately 30 minutes. Bake for 3 hours.
- Remove the foil and pour 1 cup of barbecue sauce over the meat. Bake for an additional 60 minutes with the foil open.
- Cool and slice into thin pieces.

This recipe was so easy to make and was equally delicious. I had a hard time finding the liquid smoke but after several stores finally found it. The smoke gave it a very distinct flavour and I am glad I found it. The meat was delicious and very tender. Will make it again.
