I looked up a beef brisket recipe on Food Network and found one by the Food Network Kitchens that seemed delicious.
The recipe called for the beef to be cooked in the over but my mom (who loves to make this) decided on changing it to a crock-pot, "for a slow cook finish".
Making it was relatively easy, I just had to follow the directions from the website (and the slightly altered directions from my mom). Here are some pictures of the prep process:
My hand is literally blurred by the vigor of my pounding the garlic up.
Onion and garlic prior to the decapitated stage.
Onion and garlic all sliced and ready.A huge, and I mean HUGE piece of beef sizzlin' with the onions and garlic (one of which landed on my hand and burned me) I seasoned that thing like crazy! My hand went numb from crushing the pepper and salt...And into the crock-pot it goes for the next 7-8 hours.
Ta-da! It tasted delicious (as the recipe promised it would) and I got to use the leftover meat for the next nights dinner. Success once again!
I finally felt prepared for the ultimate challenge:
DINNER!!!

All of that took me about twenty minutes, which was a good thing because I had to leave for work ten minutes later.
**7 hours and 45 minutes later**
I took the beef brisket out and it smelled SO GOOD! I had to cut it up which was a snap because it fell apart with the slightest touch. I poured myself a glass of cran-rasberry (the best juice EVER), added some fritos (also yum), and piled the beef onto a bun.
Here's the final product:
My dad thought he should take a picture with the bun off to show case what I actually made.**7 hours and 45 minutes later**
