Pioneer Woman Braised Beef Brisket

2 cans beef consomme

1/2 cups lemon juice

1 1/2 cups soy sauce

5 cloves chopped garlic

2 T liquid smoke (optional)

7-10 lbs beef brisket

Combine first 5 ingredients in a large roasting pan, place meat in (fat side up). Cover tightly with foil. Marinate in fridge for a day or two. When ready to cook, preheat oven to 300 degrees. Cook 40 minutes per pound. When fork tender, transfer to cutting board. Carefully remove fat from the top of meat. Spoon off the fat from the cooking liquid. Slice meat against the grain. Should basically fall apart. Transfer meat back into the sauce. Serve with mashed potatoes, or on a great roll with melted cheese. Reheats really well, if there are left overs!!!
