Brisket is soaked in a mixture of soy sauce, vinegar and catsup for a tangy, flavor. Meat is quite tender because it's marinated overnight.

1 (4 to 5 pound) boneless beef brisket
1/4 cup coarsely ground black pepper
2/3 cup soy sauce
1/2 cup vinegar
1 tablespoon ketchup
1 teaspoon paprika
1 clove garlic, crushed

Trim all fat from beef. Spread pepper on wax paper and place brisket on pepper. Turn to coat all sides with the pepper. Combine remaining ingredients. Place brisket in a shallow dish and pour marinade over it. Cover and refrigerate overnight, turning meat occasionally.

When ready to cook, line a large pan with foil. Place the brisket in the pan and pour marinade over meat. Cover with another large piece of foil and securely fold it into the bottom foil to seal. Bake at 300 degrees F for 3 hours, or until tender.
