   • In a bowl, combine the liquid smoke, soy sauce, garlic powder, celery seeds, pepper, Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice, onion powder, and salt. Mix well to create a flavorful marinade.

2. Marinate the Brisket:

   • Place the beef brisket in a large dish or resealable plastic bag.
   • Pour the marinade over the brisket, ensuring both sides are evenly coated.
   • Cover the dish or seal the bag, then refrigerate overnight to allow the flavors to penetrate the meat.

3. Cooking Options:

   • Option 1: Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C).
     • Wrap the marinated brisket tightly in foil to seal in the juices.
     • Place the wrapped brisket in a roasting pan and cook in the preheated oven for approximately 5 hours until tender.
   • Option 2: Alternatively, you can cook the brisket at 275°F (135°C) for 6 hours for a slower cooking process, resulting in even more tender meat.

4. Final Touches:

   • During the last hour of cooking, you have the option to elevate the flavors by brushing the brisket with your favorite barbecue sauce. Leave the brisket uncovered for this final hour to allow the sauce to caramelize and add an extra layer of deliciousness.

5. Serve and Enjoy:

   • Once the brisket is cooked to perfection, remove it from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes.
   • Slice the brisket against the grain into thick, juicy portions.
   • Serve hot alongside your favorite sides, and savor the incredible flavors of this homemade delicacy.
