How long do you cook a 6 lb brisket in your oven covered and at what temperature?

For a 6-pound brisket, cook it covered in your oven at 275°F (135°C) for about 6-8 hours, or until it reaches an internal temperature of 200-205°F (93-96°C).

Here are some tips for cooking a brisket in the oven:

* Choose a brisket with good marbling. This will help to keep the meat moist during cooking.

* Trim the brisket of excess fat. This will help to reduce shrinkage and make the meat easier to carve.

* Season the brisket with salt, pepper, and other desired spices. Rub the brisket all over with the seasonings.

* Place the brisket in a roasting pan. Add some liquid, such as beef broth or water, to the bottom of the pan. This will help to keep the brisket moist.

* Cover the roasting pan with foil. This will help to trap in the heat and moisture.

* Cook the brisket in a preheated oven. The recommended cooking temperature is 275°F (135°C).

* Cook the brisket for 6-8 hours, or until it reaches an internal temperature of 200-205°F (93-96°C).

* Remove the brisket from the oven and let it rest for 30 minutes before carving. This will allow the juices to redistribute, making the meat more tender and flavorful.
