I have made this recipe 8 or 9 times and never have any leftovers. I do it for potlucks and get rave reviews. I even had to get disposable storage containers for my guests to take home leftovers.

Made this for the holidays and it went so fast I barely got a taste. The only complaint was that the brisket I made was only 6 pounds so next time bigger. No leftovers either! Exceptional dish. I would recommend highly!
