Best My Favorite Brisket Recipes

MY FAVORITE BRISKET

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 350'
• 2. Feel free to lightly salt & pepper meat if you wish (not part of original recipe).
• 3. Mix together (in baking or roasting pan)- chili sauce, sugar & vinigar.
• 4. Place brisket in pan, turning to coat each side. Make sure top is well coated with sauce.
• 5. Slice onion into thinly sliced rings & lay on top of brisket.
• 6. Cover tightly with foil and bake about an hour per pound. (approx 3 1/2 hours) Fork should go in easily when done.
• 7. Remove foil and bake additional 20 min's to brown.
• 8. *COOL TO ROOM TEMPERATURE BEFORE SLICING*
• 9. Slice with electric knife (AGAINST THE GRAIN). This is very important. It is best to use an electric knife to cut into very thin slices ... thinner than the picture shows.
• 10. If freezing leftover's ... remove sauce and freeze each separately. Great served with mashed or roasted potatoes, garlic glazed carrots and a crisp green salad. Enjoy!: )

MY FAVORITE BRISKET (NOT TOO GEDEMPTE FLEYSCH)

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325°F. Sprinkle the salt and pepper to taste over the brisket and rub with the garlic. Sear the brisket in the oil and then place, fat side up, on top of the onions in a large casserole. Cover with the tomatoes, red wine, celery, bay leaf, thyme, and rosemary.
• Cover and bake in the oven for about 3 hours, basting often with the pan juices.
• Add the parsley and carrots and bake, uncovered, for 30 minutes more, or until the carrots are cooked. To test for doneness, stick a fork in the brisket. When there is a light pull on the fork as it is removed from the meat, it is "fork-tender."
• This dish is best prepared in advance and refrigerated so that the fat can be easily skimmed from the surface of the gravy. When ready to serve, preheat the oven to 350°F. Reheat the gravy in a pan on the stove. Some people like to strain the gravy, but Joan prefers to keep the onions because they are so delicious.
• Trim off all the visible fat from the cold brisket. Then place the brisket, on what was the fat side down, on a cutting board. Look for the grain-that is, the muscle lines of the brisket-and with a sharp knife, cut across the grain.
• Put the sliced brisket in a roasting pan. Pour the hot gravy on the meat, cover, and reheat in the oven for about 30 minutes.

MY FAVORITE BRISKET

Steps:

• To make in oven: Put brisket in roasting pan. Sprinkle generously with garlic powder. Sprinkle with dry onion soup. Mash up jellied cranberry sauce and spread over brisket. Pour 1 can (about 2 cups) water over all. Cover pan with foil sealing tightly and bake at 350° for about 3 hours.
• To make in crockpot: Put brisket in crockpot. Sprinkle generously with garlic powder; add dry onion soup. Mash up cranberry sauce and spread over brisket; pour ¼ cup water into pot. Cover and cook on HIGH for about 3 - 4 hours (or on LOW for 6 - 8 hours). Serve with mashed potatoes.
• To thicken the gravy: About 20 minutes prior to serving remove drippings from crock. De-fat. In a small saucepan, warm drippings on medium heat. Combine ½ tbsp of cornstarch and 2 tbsp of cold water in a small bowl. Stir until there are no lumps. Add cornstarch slurry to saucepan stirring constantly to avoid lumps. When it comes to a boil add a dash of black pepper and stir about a minute. Remove from heat and serve over brisket.

SIMPLY THE EASIEST BEEF BRISKET

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
• Season the brisket on all sides with salt and pepper, and place in a glass baking dish. Cover with a layer of sliced onions. In a medium bowl, mix together the beer, chili sauce, and brown sugar. Pour over the roast. Cover the dish tightly with aluminum foil.
• Bake for 3 hours in the preheated oven. Remove the aluminum foil, and bake for an additional 30 minutes. Let the brisket rest and cool slightly before slicing and returning to the dish. Reheat in the oven with the sauce spooned over the sliced meat.
