    Method

    • step 1

      Combine the rub ingredients and rub them over the brisket, then seal all sides of the rubbed brisket in a hot pan with a couple of tablespoons of oil. Take care to allow the outer of the brisket to seal but not overcook the joint as it will become tough.
    • step 2

      Place the four onion quarters at the bottom of your slow cooker, they will act as trestles for your meat.
    • step 3

      Add the rest of the sauce ingredients to the slow cooker then add the seared brisket.
    • step 4

      Allow the brisket to slow cook for around 8-10 hours.
    • step 5

      Turn the slow cooker off and add the lime juice, if the beef brisket is well-cooked it should shred under the weight of a wooden spoon.
