  Walt:  I have a great recipe for brisket of beef.  It is easy, makes its' 
  own great gravy and tastes even better as leftovers. This can be cooked 
  either in slow cooker or the oven. Either way, put in the brisket, mix the 
  onion soup with 2 cups of water and pour it over the meat. Pour the can of 
  stewed tomatoes over the brisket. Place the cookies in the liquid, not on 
  the meat.  You can break them up to fit. Seal the pan securely with 
  aluminum foil. (If in a slow cooker just put on the lid.) Bake at 325 for 
  three hours without peeking !! Take out the meat, and slice it thinly 
  against the grain and return it to the pan with the gravy. Reseal and bake 
  at 225 for about one hour. Make sure all the meat slices are covered by the 
  liquid so the meat does not dry out. This is tender and delicious. The 
  gravy is great over rice or wide noodles. FROM: BARBARA ZEGER (BNTH32A)
