We have been making it 3-4 times a year for 40 years. (One of my top 5 favorite meals) Tried it every conceivable way. Crockpot/slow cooker on high, barely covered with water, bit of salt, exactly 5 hours. Perfect every time. The one time we did it in a low oven uncovered but basted was a dry tough disaster. Tried it again covered, and it was slightly better, but ended up putting it in the food processor both times and making hash. We'll be making ours Sunday. Tender and juicy. 
PS. Always buy brisket, never round.

I cover it in beer and a little water and cook at oven 250-275. .this one was about 2 1/2 hours. Came out perfect but I made it for tomorrow. Internal temp of 190-205.
it is one of my favorites too but I only have it 2-3 times a year.

Slice of pepperoni pizza, not from 7-11, spaghetti with meat sauce and lasagna and insalata caprese.
Takeout and take home Italian night at the DELee household, Scardino's style, to feed our runner in tomorrow's L.A. Marathon.

Visited our local Chop House for dinner and it was quite good (and my first time there in four-five years).
Started with a house salad
Followed by their prime rib. It wasn't as hot as I wish it would've been, and the horseradish was way too mild, but it was good.
and finished with Tiramisu

Peking Duck in Hong Kong.
A fellow FT'er used the term "revenge traveling" and I'm "revenge feasting"! Upon ordering an entire Peking Duck the waitress looked at me quizzically and observed it's a lot of food for a one person. My reply was simply not to fret over it since the restaurant won't be closing their doors for at least several hours, which should be enough. Jokes aside, I was coming off a 48 hour fast & needed a feast!
Not that I'm proud of it, but except for a piece or two, I finished the entire duck!
