Oven-Baked Corned Beef Brisket

My husband did the shopping this week because I hurt my back. He bought a bargain cut of meat for $4 at Cub Foods that was labeled Corn Beef Brisket. The meat came with the pickling spice packet you see when you are cooking Corned Beef at St Patrick’s Day. I had no idea what he bought or how to cook it so I told him he was on his own. This was the recipe he made for honestly the best Corned Beef I ever had. It was tender, tasty and we liked it so much we rushed back to Cub Foods and bought three more to freeze for smoking this Summer on the grill.

For the meat rub in this recipe, I use Smokehouse Lovers Spice Blend from Luvafoodie.
