1 teaspoon black pepper -- divided

Water 1 medium onion -- grated

1 tablespoon butter -- or margarine

1 1/2 cups catsup

Cover cooker and cook 5 hours, turning brisket over every 11/2 hours; remove excess fat from pan with baster as it accumulates. Add additional 1/2 cup water to pan, if needed.

Melt butter in medium saucepan over medium heat. Add onions; cook until tender-crisp, stirring occasionally. Add reserved pan drippings, remaining 1/2 teaspoon pepper, catsup, lemon juice, worcestershire sauce and pepper sauce; simmer approximately 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Trim excess fat from brisket; carve brisket across the grain into thin slices.
