ALL-DAY BRISKET WITH POTATOES

All-Day Brisket with Potatoes image

I think the slow cooker was invented with brisket in mind. This sweet and savory version is perfection itself because it melts in your mouth. It's very important to buy "first-cut" or "flat-cut" brisket, which has far less fat than other cuts. -Lana Gryga, Glen Flora, Wisconsin
