Simple Fare, Fairly Simple

I had a small brisket that I was going to throw in the crock pot but it needed a little oomph. This rub turned out really good. You can just as easily cook this in the oven or on the grill but I'm all about easy these days.

Spicy Rub



1 tablespoon chili powder
1 tablespoon salt
2 teaspoons garlic powder
2 teaspoons onion powder
2 teaspoons ground black pepper
2 teaspoons sugar
1 teaspoon dry mustard
1 bay leaf, crushed
2 pounds beef brisket
1 cup beef stock

Combine all spices in a small bowl. Rub all over roast.

Place roast in the crock pot and pour in the beef stock.

Set to low and cook for 8 - 10 hours (or on high for 5- 6) until tender.

The line-up. I used a brisket but 

you could put this on chicken or pork!

Put all the spices in a small 

bowl and give them a whisk.

Rub the rub on both sides of the 

roast then put it in the crock pot.

Pour the beef broth in the 

crock pot but not over the rub.

Let it cook until the 

meat is tender and yummy!
