Beef Brisket Barbecue

I tried this recipe a while back and it was delicious. This might be fun to try in the winter when the smoker is buried in the crawl space.

4 to 5 pound well trimmed brisket
1 tsp. salt
1/2 C. ketchup
1/4 C. white vinegar
1 tbsp. Worcestershire sauce
1 1/2 tsp. liquid smoke
1/4 tsp. pepper
1 medium onion, finely chopped
1 bay leaf

Heat oven to 325 degrees.

Rub surface of beef with salt. Place in ungreased rectangular 13X9X2 inch pan. Mix remaining ingredients; pour over beef.

Cover and bake about 3 hours or until beef is tender.

Cut thin diagonal slices across the grain at an angle from 2 or 3 "faces" of meat. Spoon any remaining pan juices over sliced beef if desired. Discard bay leaf.
