SWEET-AND-SOUR BRISKET



Sweet-and-Sour Brisket image

When Sarah Carey, our editorial director of food and entertaining, was a kid, holiday visits to her grandparents' house often included her grandma's sweet-and-sour version of classic beef brisket. She recreated it from memory, one bite at a time, using three key ingredients: Chili sauce, brown sugar, and vinegar.

Time 4h20m

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 1/2 to 4 pounds beef brisket, fat cap trimmed to 1/4 inch thick
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 tablespoon safflower oil
2 onions, thinly sliced (4 cups)
2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
1 cup chili sauce (such as Heinz) or ketchup
1/2 cup packed dark-brown sugar
1/3 cup distilled white vinegar
4 large carrots (about 1 1/2 pounds total), peeled and cut into 2-inch pieces
1 3/4 pound Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled and cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces
Flat-leaf parsley leaves, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Place brisket in a large, heavy-bottomed roasting pan; season with salt and pepper. Heat oil in a large straight-sided skillet over medium-high; add onions, 2 teaspoons salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper and cook, stirring, until onions are translucent, 3 to 4 minutes. Add broth, chili sauce, brown sugar, and vinegar; bring to a boil.
  • Place roasting pan over two burners; pour in broth mixture and return to a boil. Cover pan with parchment-lined foil and roast in oven 30 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees; roast 1 hour, 15 minutes more. Add carrots and potatoes and continue roasting, uncovered, tossing vegetables occasionally, 1 hour. Baste meat with pan juices and continue to roast, basting and tossing vegetables occasionally, until meat is tender but not falling apart, and potatoes and carrots are cooked, about 1 hour more.
  • Transfer brisket to a cutting board. Let stand 10 minutes, then slice and serve with sauce, vegetables, and parsley.

Time 13m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 medium onion, peeled and quartered
2 inches fresh ginger, peeled
6 large garlic cloves
1/4 cup Dijon mustard
1/2 cup dry red wine
1 1/2 cups Coca-Cola or 1 1/2 cups ginger ale
1 cup ketchup
1/4 cup honey
1/4 cup cider vinegar
1/4 cup soy sauce
1/2 cup olive oil
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1 tablespoon fresh coarse ground black pepper, to taste
1 (6 -7 lb) first-cut beef brisket, rinsed and patted thoroughly dry

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. Place everything but the brisket into a food processor, and process with steel blade until smooth.
  • Place brisket, fat side up, into a heavy baking pan just large enough to hold it, and pour sauce over it. Cover tightly and bake for 2 hours. Turn brisket over and bake uncovered for one more hour or until fork-tender. Cool, cover brisket and refrigerate overnight in cooking pan.
  • The next day, transfer brisket to a cutting board, cut off fat and cut with a sharp knife against grain, to desired thickness. Remove any congealed fat from sauce and bring to a boil on top of stove.
  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. Taste sauce to see if it needs reducing. If so, boil it down for a few minutes or as needed. Return meat to sauce and warm in oven for 20 minutes. Serve warm.

Time 3h50m

Yield 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

One 3-pound beef brisket, first-cut or flat-half cut, trimmed of any excess fat
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons canola oil
1 medium onion, cut in 1/2, then thinly sliced into 1/2 moons
3 cloves garlic, chopped (about 1 tablespoon)
One 15-ounce can tomato sauce, preferably no salt added
1/4 cup low-sodium chicken broth or water
3 tablespoons firmly packed dark brown sugar
1/3 cup plus 1 tablespoon cider vinegar
1/3 cup raisins
5 black peppercorns
1 allspice berry

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F.
  • Pat the brisket dry and sprinkle with the salt and pepper. Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil over medium-high heat in a Dutch oven or braising pot. Sear the brisket until it is browned, 4 to 5 minutes per side. Transfer the brisket to a plate.
  • Add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil to the pot and cook the onion, stirring a few times, until softened, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add the tomato sauce, broth, brown sugar, 1/3 cup of the vinegar, the raisins, peppercorns and allspice and stir to combine well. Bring the mixture to a boil, return the brisket and any accumulated juices to the pot, spoon some of the tomato-vinegar mixture over the brisket, cover tightly and transfer to the oven. Cook until the brisket is fork tender, 2 1/2 to 3 hours.
  • Remove the brisket from the oven, transfer the meat to a cutting board and let rest for 10 to 20 minutes or, if serving later, cover and refrigerate the meat and sauce for several hours or overnight. When you are ready to serve, cut the meat against the grain into 1/4-inch-thick slices. Stir the remaining 1 tablespoon vinegar into the warm sauce. Return the sliced brisket to the sauce until heated through, then serve.
  • Yield: 10 servings, serving size: 4-ounces brisket plus 3 tablespoons of sauce

SWEET AND SOUR BRISKET



Sweet and Sour Brisket image

This is heaven in a pot and couldn't be easier to make! The sweet and sour flavors come together nicely with melt-in-your-mouth brisket. Serve with mashed potatoes, potato pancakes or roasted potatoes and bread on the side to soak up the scrumptious sauce. If you like intense flavors, you will not be disappointed.
