There is really only one step to this brisket and that is to season. Using flavorful seasonings helps to give a great taste, but lends itself to an easy recipe. Using the Lipton onion soup mix gives that great onion flavor, while pouring Coke on top to cook with helps keep in the moisture. That unexpected ingredient really does make all the difference. Simple and delicious, this is one recipe that makes it to our table pretty often!
