Heavenly Crockpot Brisket

I never thought I would like beef this much! Hence my glowing title for this recipe lol.  It is sort of a BBQ spin off I guess.  I have had this brisket in my freezer for months, having no idea of what to do with it.  But then I got determined and did some research, made some adaptations, and voila.  I present you the best beef I have ever made, imho.

Heavenly Crockpot Brisket

Whatcha Need

1 brisket, 2-3 pounds
8oz can of tomato sauce
6 cloves garlic, minced
1 TB olive oil
2 TB chili powder
2 TB dijon mustard
2 TB apple cider vinegar
1 cup crushed pineapple
1 ts sea salt
1 onion, diced

Whatcha Do

Mix the tomato sauce, garlic, olive oil, chili powder, mustard, vinegar, pineapple and salt in a bowl.  Put the brisket in your crockpot and pour about half the sauce over it.  Turn it over and pour the rest of the sauce on it.  Put the onions over the top.  Cook it on low until it is falling apart.  For me that was about 7 hours but might vary depending on how hot your crockpot is and the size of the brisket.

I kept thinking how good this would be with bread lol.  Need to think about good ways to serve it.  There is also SO much wonderful, delicious sauce that I would like to come up with ideas for.  I was thinking it might be good in scrambled eggs but haven't tried that yet.
