Time 4h15m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 lbs boneless beef brisket (NOT corned beef)
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
1 clove garlic, minced
3 medium onions, peeled and thickly sliced
1 cup hot water
1 envelope dry onion soup mix
4 carrots, peeled and cut into 2 inch chunks
4 stalks celery, cut into 2 inch chunks
French roll

Steps:

Preheat oven to 350°.
Place brisket, fat side up, in a 9x13-inch roasting pan; season with salt, pepper and garlic.
Place sliced onions on top of meat and bake for 1 hour or until the onions have browned on their edges; add water, soup mix, carrots and celery and cover with foil to form a tight seal.
Reduce oven to 300° and continue to cook until meat is fork-tender, about 3 hours.
Remove from oven; separate meat from sauce and refrigerate both overnight.
The next day, remove visible fat from meat and discard; thinly slice meat across the grain.
Remove fat from gravy and discard; place gravy and vegetables in a large, deep skillet over low heat; add sliced meat and gently heat through.
Serve sliced meat with au jus on French rolls.
