Easy Easy Oven Brisket

This I found in TheChef@wwrecipes.com And they aren't kidding when they say it's easy:)

Today's "Summertime and the Cookin' is Easy" recipe is one you can put together, pop in the oven, and then go to the beach or while away the day sightseeing without having to worry about checking on the meal. It cooks for at least 5 hours, and can cook longer if you decide you want to spend some more time looking for the perfect seashell. A couple of notes: don't be intimidated by the size of the roast; it shrinks by about half in the cooking process. And be sure to have leftovers (hence the tremendous size to begin with) because this makes great Philly-style sandwiches the next day. Just slice the meat, put it on a roll with some of the onions from this recipe, top it with a slice of cheese (I like provolone) and put it in the oven for 20 minutes or so. Serve it with some of yesterday's Five Bean Salad (didn't I tell you to make a double recipe?) and you have a second meal. There are at least two meals for six people in this recipe, so the vacationing cook can spend more time developing the perfect suntan.

Oven Brisket

10 to 14 lb (5 to 7 kg) beef brisket
Seasoning salt to taste (your choice - I like the commercial "Adobo" and "Greek Seasoning" mixtures)
Freshly ground black pepper to taste
6 large onions, thinly sliced
2-12 oz (375 ml) bottles dark beer (or beef stock or water)
3 stems fresh rosemary, or 2 tsp (30 ml) dried
2-12 oz (375 ml) jars chili sauce

Season the brisket with the seasoning salt and the pepper. Place it in a large roasting pan, place the sliced onions on top, add the rosemary, and pour the beer over it. Cover tightly with aluminum foil and bake in a 200F (100C) oven for at least 5 hours. Remove the foil 1/2 to 1 hour before serving and pour the chili sauce over the meat. Raise the temperature of the oven to 300F (150C) if necessary to reduce the pan juices. Remove from the pan and allow to sit for 15 minutes before carving into thin slices. Serves at least 6, with leftovers for sandwiches.
