We loved how tender this brisket came out of the slow cooker. The sauce has a robust, beefy flavor with a slight tang from the balsamic vinegar, and the rich caramelized onions complete the dish.-Taste of Home Test Kitchen

Tips:

  • Choose the right brisket: Look for a brisket that is well-marbled with fat, as this will help to keep it 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 all over with a mixture of salt, pepper, and your favorite spices. You can also add a layer of mustard or Worcestershire sauce to help the spices adhere.
  • Sear the brisket: Sear the brisket in a hot skillet or Dutch oven until it is browned on all sides. This will help to lock in the juices and flavor.
  • Braising the brisket: Add the brisket to a slow cooker or Dutch oven along with some liquid, such as beef broth or water. Cover the brisket and cook it on low heat 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 30 minutes before slicing and serving. This will help the juices to redistribute throughout the meat.
