Yield Makes 4 (main course) or 6 (as part of hash)

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 tablespoons canola oil
1 (2-pounds) piece beef brisket (preferably second-cut)
2 large white onions, chopped
4 medium carrots, cut into 1-inch pieces
4 celery ribs, cut into 1-inch pieces
6 garlic cloves
1/4 cup cider vinegar
1 cup chicken stock or reduced-sodium chicken broth
1 (28-ounces) can crushed tomatoes

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F with rack in lower third.
  • Heat oil in a wide 5-to 6-quart heavy pot over medium-high heat until it shimmers. Season brisket with 1 tsp each of salt and pepper, then brown brisket, turning once, about 8 minutes total. Transfer to a plate.
  • Reduce heat to medium. Add onions to pot and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden-brown, 12 to 15 minutes. Add carrots, celery, and garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden, 10 to 12 minutes. Add vinegar, stirring and scraping up brown bits. Add stock and tomatoes and bring to a simmer. Return brisket to pot, nestling it in braising liquid (liquid will not cover meat). Cover with a tight-fitting lid and braise in oven until fork-tender, 3 to 3 1/2 hours.

I've made this recipe several times now and it's always a hit. The brisket is always tender and juicy, and the sauce is flavorful without being too heavy.

This recipe is a bit time-consuming, but it's definitely worth the effort. The brisket was fall-apart tender and the sauce was incredible.

The brisket was a bit fatty, but the flavor was still good.

I followed the recipe exactly and the results were disappointing. The brisket was tough and the sauce was bland.
