Categories     side-dish

Time 1h15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 orange, juiced and zested
1 lemon, juiced and zested
3 cups port
12 ounces fresh cranberries, washed
1/2 medium red onion, diced
1-ounce fresh ginger, peeled and cut into julienne
3 tablespoons dark brown sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon white pepper
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
3 tablespoons orange liqueur
4 Rome Beauty apples

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • In a small saucepan, heat the orange and lemon juices with 1/2 cup of the port. Add the zest and cook until tender, about 10 minutes. Reserve.
  • In a medium saucepan, combine the cranberries, onion, 2 cups port, ginger, brown sugar, salt, pepper, and cinnamon. Over medium-high heat, cook until the relish thickens, 15 to 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in the remaining 1/2 cup port, the orange liqueur, and the reserved orange and lemon juice and zest mixture. Set aside.
  • Cut off the top 1/4-inch of each apple. Using a melon baller, remove the core of the apple, being careful not to pierce the sides or bottom of the apples, to make apple "cups". Place the apple cups in a small baking dish. Spoon the cranberry relish into the apples. Spoon the excess relish around the apples. Cover with foil and bake until apples are tender, about 30 to 45 minutes.

Tips:

  • Choose the Right Cut of Beef: Brisket is a large, tough cut of meat, so it's important to choose one that is well-marbled with fat. This will help the brisket to stay moist and flavorful during the long cooking process.
  • Prep Your Brisket Correctly: Before cooking, trim the brisket of excess fat and remove the silver skin. This will help the brisket to cook evenly and prevent it from becoming tough.
  • Use a Flavorful Marinade: Marinating the brisket overnight in a flavorful marinade will help to infuse it with flavor and make it more tender. Be sure to use a marinade that contains acidic ingredients, such as vinegar or citrus juice, to help break down the tough fibers in the meat.
  • Cook the Brisket Low and Slow: Brisket is a tough cut of meat, so it needs to be cooked low and slow to allow the collagen to break down and make the meat tender. The ideal cooking temperature is between 200°F and 225°F. Cooking the brisket at a higher temperature will make it tough and dry.
  • Let the Brisket Rest: Once the brisket is cooked, let it rest for at least 30 minutes before slicing it. This will help the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, making it more tender and flavorful.

Conclusion:

Spiced Cran-Apple Brisket is a delicious and flavorful dish that is perfect for a special occasion. The combination of spices, cranberries, and apples gives the brisket a unique and tangy flavor. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
