Mexican Style Brisket image

This is a great way to cook brisket. As always, you can add more chiles! This recipe came to me in an email, but the author's name was not listed. I would like to thank him for a great recipe nonetheless! I make it in the pressure cooker to save time, but it taste slightly better when slow cooked in the oven. Plus, the smell in the house is to die for!

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 dried New Mexico chiles
2 small dried hot red chiles

1/4 cup wine vinegar
6 garlic cloves, peeled
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 1/2 teaspoons dried oregano leaves
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
3 lbs center cut beef brisket, surface fat trimmed
4 large about 1 3/4 lb onions, thinly sliced

  • Remove and discard stems and seeds from chiles. Put in 1 qt water and bring to boil.

  • Seal pan tightly with aluminum foil.
  • Bake, covered, at 350F until brisket is very tender, about 4 hours, basting occasionally.
