BEER-BRAISED BEEF
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F and adjust a rack to the lower third of oven.
- Remove the brisket from the refrigerator and let rest for 1 hour to come up to room temperature.
- Pat the brisket dry and sprinkle it generously on both sides with salt and pepper. Heat the oil in a Dutch over or braising pot set over medium-high heat. Sear the brisket in the oil until well browned, about 4 minutes. Carefully flip and sear on the reverse side for another 4 minutes. Remove the brisket to a plate.
- To the pot, add the garlic, onions, carrots, celery, thyme, rosemary and bay leaf. Saute until golden, about 8 minutes. Stir in the tomato paste and cook for 2 minutes. Add the vinegar, chicken stock and beer, and bring to a simmer, scrapping up any bits that are stuck to the bottom of the pan.
- Nestle the brisket into the pot, making space between the vegetables, and cover with a tight-fitting lid. Place in the oven and cook for 3 1/2 hours, or until fork tender. Let rest for 15 minutes before slicing thinly against the grain.
- Serve on a platter along with the vegetables and any extra braising liquid as a sauce.

Steps:
- Finely chop garlic in a food processor. Add brown sugar, mustard, oil, black pepper, cumin, paprika, cayenne, and 1/4 cup salt and process until smooth. Rub all over brisket, working into crevices. Wrap in plastic; chill 1-2 days. Let meat sit out until room temperature, about 1 hour.
- Preheat oven to 325°. Scatter onions in a large roasting pan and set brisket, fat side up, on top. Add beer; cover with foil. Braise until meat is very tender, 5-6 hours. Remove from oven; heat broiler. Broil brisket, uncovered, until top is browned and crisp, 5-10 minutes.
- Let brisket cool slightly. Remove from pan and shred or slice. Remove onions with a slotted spoon; mix into brisket. Taste and moisten with some cooking liquid and season with salt, if needed.
- Do ahead: Brisket can be braised 1 day ahead. Let cool; cover and chill. Reheat, covered, at 325° for 1 1/2 hours.
BEER-BRAISED BRISKET WITH ONIONS
Clipped from a cooking magazine. I also saw it on epicurious.com. The cook's note associated with the recipe stated: Brisket improves in flavor if braised 2 days ahead, cooled in sauce, uncovered then chill, surface covered with parchment paper or wax paper and pot covered with lid. Remove any solidified fat before reheating. Slice cold meat across the grain and reheat in oven with the sauce in a shallow baking pan, covered, for 45 minutes.*Cover the meat in the liquid as much as you can while cooking to avoid the meat from drying out. I tried to add more beer and balsamic later but it didn't taste the same. I think beef broth or water would have been a better choice to get more liquid for gravy.

Steps:
- Heat the oven to 150C/130C fan/gas 2. Mix the stock cube with the tarragon and pepper in a small bowl. Rub over the brisket and season. Heat the oil in a large flameproof casserole dish or roasting tin over a medium-high heat, add the brisket and brown well on all sides.
- Stir in the ale and beef extract, then tip in the sugar and onion flakes and add enough of the beef stock to come two-thirds of the way up the sides of the brisket. Bring to the boil, cover and roast in the oven for 3 hrs, checking every 30 mins to see if the brisket is tender (but you may need to roast it for up to 5 hrs). Transfer the brisket to a board and leave to rest for 15 mins. Slice and serve with the stock spooned over and some steamed long stem broccoli on the side, if you like.

Tips:
- Choose the right cut of beef. Brisket is a tough cut of meat, so it needs to be cooked slowly and gently to tenderize it. Look for a brisket that is well-marbled with fat, as this will help to keep it moist during cooking.
- Brown the brisket before braising it. This will help to develop flavor and caramelize the meat.
- Use a flavorful braising liquid. The braising liquid is what will give the brisket its flavor, so make sure to use a liquid that you enjoy the taste of. Beer, wine, and broth are all good options.
- Add vegetables to the braising liquid. Vegetables will help to add flavor and nutrition to the brisket. Carrots, onions, celery, and garlic are all good choices.
- Cook the brisket low and slow. The best way to tenderize brisket is to cook it low and slow. This will allow the collagen in the meat to break down, making it fall-apart tender.
- Let the brisket rest before serving. Once the brisket is cooked, let it rest for at least 15 minutes before slicing and serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, making it more flavorful.
Conclusion:
Beer-braised brisket is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a special occasion or a casual weeknight meal. With its tender meat, flavorful sauce, and melt-in-your-mouth texture, beer-braised brisket is sure to be a hit with everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a satisfying and flavorful meal, give beer-braised brisket a try.
