Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Meat & Poultry     Beef Recipes     Brisket Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 very large cloves garlic
Coarse salt
1 whole brisket (8 to 10 pounds, both second and first cuts)
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
4 pounds onions, halved and sliced
3 medium carrots, peeled and sliced crosswise into 1/4-inch-thick rounds
2 large outer ribs celery, sliced crosswise 1/4-inch-thick
4 small bay leaves

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  • Crush garlic cloves with salt and rub onto both sides of the meat. Season meat with 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and pepper.
  • Spread onions, carrots, and celery over the bottom of a roasting pan just large enough to hold the meat; top with 2 bay leaves. Place meat on top of vegetables and bay leaves and top with remaining 2 bay leaves. Cover pan with parchment-paper-lined aluminum foil and transfer to oven. Bake until meat is fork tender, 3 to 4 hours.
  • Remove meat from oven and let stand 30 to 45 minutes. Cut the top fatty layer (known as the second cut) from the leaner bottom layer (known as the first cut); trim off and discard the layer of fat between them. Slice both cuts across the grain.
  • Tip the roasting pan slightly; skim off some of the fat and discard. Serve vegetables and their juices immediately with meat. To make a thicker sauce, puree vegetables and their juices slightly before serving.

Categories     Dinner, Main course

Time 3h35m

Number Of Ingredients 14

1-1¼kg/2¼-2¾ lb boned and rolled beef brisket
5 tbsp vegetable oil
large knob of butter
2 large onions, halved and sliced
2-3 celery sticks, finely chopped
2 carrots, sliced
200-250g/8-9oz large flat mushrooms, stalks chopped and heads thinly sliced
500-550ml bottle brown ale or stout
a few fresh thyme sprigs
2 bay leaves
1-2 tsp light muscovado sugar
500g parsnips, cut into wedges
1 tbsp Dijon mustard
chopped fresh parsley or thyme to serve

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 190C/Gas 5/fan oven 170C. Wash and dry brisket and season. Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a deep casserole and brown beef all over. Remove from pan. Turn down heat, add butter and fry the onions, celery, carrots and mushroom stalks for 6-8 minutes.
  • Return beef to pan and add beer, thyme, bay leaves and sugar. Add water if necessary so the liquid comes about two-thirds up the beef. Season, bring to a simmer, cover tightly, and cook in the oven for 20 minutes. Reduce heat to 160C/Gas 3/fan oven 140C and cook for 2 hours, turning twice, until tender.
  • An hour before the beef is done, toss the parsnips in oil, season and roast on a baking tray above the beef for 50 mins - 1 hr until tender, turning once.
  • Turn oven up to 190C/Gas 5/fan oven 170C. Lift out the beef, tent with foil and keep warm. Stir the parsnips and mushroom caps into the beef juices. Check seasoning; add water if needed. Cover and cook in the oven for 20-25 minutes until mushrooms are tender.
  • To serve, use a slotted spoon to remove vegetables and arrange round the beef. Spoon off the excess fat from the juices, then whisk in the mustard and pour into a jug. Moisten the beef with a little juice and scatter with parsley or thyme.

1 (4 lb) beef brisket, with 1/3-inch layer fat
salt
fresh ground black pepper
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
5 garlic cloves, smashed
2 medium onions, coarsely chopped
2 medium carrots, coarsely chopped
1 celery rib, coarsely chopped
3 bay leaves
2 rosemary sprigs
2 small dried red chilies
2 cups dry red wine
1 (14 ounce) can plum tomatoes, drained
3 cups low sodium chicken broth

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Season brisket with salt and pepper. In a large skillet, heat the oil. Add the brisket, fat side down, and cool over moderately high heat until richly browned, about 5 minutes. Turn and brown on the other side, about 5 minutes longer. Transfer the brisket, fat side up, to a roasting pan.
  • Add the garlic, onions, carrots, and celery to the skillet and cook over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 10 minutes.

POT ROAST



Pot Roast image

Provided by Michael Symon : Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 5h25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

One 4-pound brisket point
2 teaspoons celery seeds
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Olive oil, for drizzling
4 stalks celery, diced
2 carrots, cleaned and diced
1 large yellow onion, diced
10 to 12 cloves garlic, peeled and smashed
1 bundle fresh thyme
4 tablespoons tomato paste
8 ounces red wine
2 to 4 cups chicken stock, beef stock or water

Steps:

  • Sprinkle the meat liberally with the celery seeds, salt and pepper up to 1 day in advance. Remove the meat from the refrigerator 45 minutes to 1 hour before cooking to take the chill off it. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
  • Heat a large Dutch oven over high heat. Add a drizzle of olive oil, followed by the brisket. Sear the meat until golden brown and crusty, 3 to 5 minutes on each side. Set aside.
  • Add the celery, carrots and onions to the Dutch oven, along with a pinch of salt. Brown the vegetables, about 3 minutes, then add the garlic and thyme and cook 1 to 2 minutes longer. Stir in the tomato paste and toast it until it's rust colored, 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Add the wine to deglaze the pot, scraping up the browned bits on the bottom. Add the meat back in, then add enough stock to cover the roast halfway. Bring the liquid to a simmer and taste for seasoning, adding more salt if necessary. Cover and roast in the oven, basting the meat occasionally, until the roast is tender, 3 to 4 hours.
  • If you're serving individual plates, the meat can be removed to a cutting board and sliced. Or, the meat can be pulled apart with a couple of forks right in the pot at the table and served with plenty of the sauce and vegetables

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of brisket: Look for a brisket that is well-marbled with fat, as this will help to keep the meat moist during cooking.
  • Trim the brisket: Remove any excess fat from the brisket, leaving a thin layer of fat on top.
  • Season the brisket: Rub the brisket with a mixture of salt, pepper, and your favorite spices. You can also add a layer of brown sugar or honey to the top of the brisket to help it caramelize during cooking.
  • Sear the brisket: Sear the brisket in a hot skillet over medium-high heat until it is browned on all sides. This will help to lock in the flavor and juices.
  • Braise the brisket: Place the seared brisket in a Dutch oven or slow cooker. Add a cup or two of beef broth or water, along with any other desired vegetables or seasonings. Cover the pot and braise the brisket for several hours, or until it is fall-apart tender.
  • Let the brisket rest: Once the brisket is cooked, let it rest for at least 15 minutes before slicing. This will help the juices to redistribute throughout the meat.

Conclusion:

Pot-roasted brisket is a classic comfort food that is perfect for a special occasion or a casual family meal. With a little planning and effort, you can create a delicious and memorable dish that everyone will enjoy. So next time you're looking for a hearty and flavorful meal, give pot-roasted brisket a try.
