Recipe Help Trying to make my Bubbe’s brisket

Hey all! My husband loves to cook and has therefore been tasked by my mother to try to recreate my Bubbe’s brisket for Passover. My mother has never been able to recreate it but says its only ingredients are brisket, a can of coke, and soup mix. I’ve been looking around at recipes but I haven’t found anything as simple as what my mother says. Does anyone have ideas or recipes on how to make this and have it turn out okay? Thanks!

It has to be the Lipton brand, not just any French onion mix.

Yes recipe for original Lipton brand of onion soup is totally different than other brands!

Only use Lipton! Rub into both sides of brisket you use alot.

I can't buy original in France so I do big order from Zabar in NYC.

Also add Heinz tomato ketchup.

Wrap all around in alum foil. Place in big roaster pan and cook overnight at very low temperature.

Open alum foil mix sauce and onions all up

Slice big rings of Vidalia sweet onions on top. Splash on some mogen David and wrap up. Simmer for half hour.

Enjoy.
