Yield 10 people

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/3 cup vegetable oil
2 1/2 lbs onions, thinly sliced
5 celery stalks, sliced
1 1/2 cups chicken broth
1 12-oz bottle dark beer
1 12-oz bottle chili sauce
2 tbs tomato paste
1 tbs fresh chopped marjoram
1 5lb trimmed flat-cut brisket
1 tb Hungarian sweet paprika

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325. Heat oil in large pot over high heat. Add onions and saute until very dark brown, stirring occassionally, about 35 minutes. Transfer to large roasting pan. In same large pot, add celery and saute over high heat until brown, about 5 minutes. Add broth to pot and bring to boil. Remove pot from heat and add beer, chili sauce, tomato paste and marjoram. Sprinkle brisket all over with paprika, salt and pepper. Place brisket atop onions, fat side up. Pour sauce over brisket. Cover brisket with foil and bake until tender, about 3 hours 45 minutes. Uncover and let stand 1 hour. In my opinion, taste better when made a day ahead. The flavor really sets in.
