Busy Day Barbeque Brisket

Brisket is rubbed with spices and liquid smoke and then cooked in a slow cooker with BBQ sauce until tender and juicy. This calls for just enough barbecue sauce for that smoky flavor while still allowing the flavor of the meat to come through. Hint: It's even better if you marinate it in the dry rub overnight.
