More than half of the brisket should be covered. Be sure container is non-metallic; cover with lid and refrigerate for a week, turning every other day. The longer you marinate, the sourer the meat. When ready to bake, pour the marinade through a sieve to strain out the large solid spices. Place the brisket in a large covered roasting pan, pour the strained marinade over the meat, cover and roast in oven at 350 degrees for 2 or 3 hours. During the last 30 minutes, sprinkle the brisket with the 1/2 cup brown sugar and resume roasting. Remove brisket from roaster, and thicken stock with flour; add the 2 cups of sour cream, stir in well, and serve thickened stock over sliced brisket. From: KOUNTRY COOK #1 @1912232 MMMMM
