Steps:
- Season the brisket all over with salt and pepper. Heat the vegetable oil in a frying pan (or use the sear function on your slow cooker) and sear the meat all over until browned. Transfer to a plate. Add another drizzle of oil, if needed, and fry the onions with a pinch of salt until lightly golden, about 12 mins. Sprinkle over the flour, stir until well-mixed, then pour in the ale and scrape the bottom of the pan to pick up any browned bits. Tip everything into the slow cooker (if using a frying pan).
- Add the yeast or beef extract, sugar and vinegar, then the beef and herbs. Top up with stock until the brisket is just over half submerged. Cover and cook for 7-8 hrs on low until tender. Remove the meat from the slow cooker and cover to keep warm. Use the reduce or simmer function on your slow cooker and simmer for 10-15 mins until the gravy has thickened to your liking. If your slow cooker doesn't have a simmer function, pour the gravy into a pan and simmer on the hob until thickened. Add a pinch more salt, sugar or a dash more vinegar if needed. If you like your gravy to be extra-thick, mix the cornflour with a splash of cold water, then add to the pan and bubble for a few minutes.
- Just before you remove the meat from the slow cooker, start on the mash. Cook the potatoes in a pan of boiling salted water for 20 mins until very tender when pressed. Drain and steam-dry for a few minutes before mashing with the horseradish, butter and crème fraîche. Scatter with parsley to serve. Cut the brisket into wedges and serve with the gravy and mash.

Steps:
- Preferably use a casserole dish that you can use on top of the stove to make it easy for you to make the gravy
- 1) peel and smash your garlic
- 2) top, tail and peel shallots
- 3) make a pint of beef stock
- 4) chuck your garlic, carrots, shallots and beef into a casserole dish
- 5) pour in 1 pint of beef stock (and wine, if applicable)
- 6) Stick the lid on and sit in the oven on about 160 for anything up to 3 hours (just keep checking it, i'm sorry i'm not sure of the exact time, but it's not the end of the world if it's a bit pink in the middle)
- 7) When you feel the beef is done, take it out and stick it on a chopping board for carving
- 8) scoop out those gorgeous tender vegetables, and put them in a pan with the lid on to keep warm
- 9) onto the gravy - mix the cornflour with a splash of water to make a paste (this is important, otherwise you will end up with lumps of cornflour :puke:)
- 10) add to casserole dish and top up with as much beef stock as you need to make your gravy, although you can always freeze some to add to casseroles or just to use in the future (nb: if you don't have a casserole you can use on top of the stove, pour the juices from the casserole into a medium sized saucepan and use this)
- 11) simmer this (it should be bubbling but not boiling) on the hob until it thickens, you can always add more cornflour or some gravy granules if it isn't thickening after a few minutes.
- 12) while the gravy is going, slice up the beef by sticking a fork in it and slicing thinly as possible (leave the string on and just take it out as you go, otherwise it will be quite difficult)
- 13) Half of this will make a meal in itself with your choice of potatoes for 2... if you've got more people, i'd do some extra vegetables... cabbage, peas, carrots whatever!!

Tips:
- Choose the right cut of beef brisket: Look for a brisket that is well-marbled with fat, as this will help to keep the meat moist and tender during the long cooking process.
- Trim the brisket: Before cooking, trim away any excess fat from the brisket. This will help to reduce the amount of grease in the final dish.
- Season the brisket generously: Rub the brisket all over with a mixture of salt, pepper, and your favorite spices. This will help to develop flavor in the meat.
- Sear the brisket: Before braising or roasting the brisket, sear it in a hot skillet or grill. This will help to create a flavorful crust on the meat.
- Cook the brisket low and slow: The key to tender, fall-apart brisket is to cook it low and slow. This can be done in a Dutch oven in the oven, in a slow cooker, or even in a smoker.
- Let the brisket rest before slicing: After cooking, let the brisket rest for at least 15 minutes before slicing. This will help the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful dish.
Conclusion:
Slow-baked beef brisket is a classic comfort food that is perfect for a special occasion or a casual family meal. With its rich, flavorful gravy, tender meat, and crispy crust, brisket is sure to be a hit with everyone at the table.
