Jewish Brisket Recipe Oven

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large deep skillet or pot over medium-high heat. Season the brisket generously with black pepper. Place in the pan and cook until the surface is a rich brown color, not burnt, but dark. Lift the roast and scatter the onions in the pan. Place the uncooked side of the roast down onto the onions. Repeat the browning process.
• Add the garlic to the pan, and fill with enough water to almost cover the roast. Bring to a simmer. Reduce heat to low and cover with a lid or tight-fitting aluminum foil. Simmer for 4 hours, turning the roast over once halfway through. The roast should be fork tender.
• Remove the brisket to a serving platter. Bring the broth in the pan to a simmer, scraping the bottom to loosen any browned bits. Cook until reduced to a thin gravy. Taste and season with salt and pepper if needed.

Steps:

• Place brisket, fat-side up, in a 13x9-inch roasting pan. Season brisket with salt and pepper, sprinkle with garlic, and place onions on top. Bake in a preheated 350-degree oven for 1 hour, or until the onions turn brown. Add hot water, cover with aluminum foil, and seal tight.
• Reduce oven temperature to 300 degrees and continue cooking for 2 hours. Remove brisket and onions to warm platter.
• To make gravy, combine cornstarch dissolved in cold water with cooking liquid and cook, stirring, until boiling and thickened. Garnish as desired.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 300°F Season brisket all over with salt and pepper.
• Set a large stainless steel roasting pan over 2 burners set to medium-high heat.
• Add oil, and heat until shimmering.
• Add brisket and brown on both sides, about 6 minutes per side.
• Transfer brisket to a work surface.
• Add onion, carrot, celery, and garlic to roasting pan and cook, stirring, until just starting to brown in spots, about 6 minutes; season with salt.
• Add wine and bring to a simmer while scraping up browned bits from bottom of pan.
• Return brisket to roasting pan, nestling it among vegetables.
• Add thyme and bay leaves to roasting pan and cover well with foil.
• Cook at 300 on middle rack until fork-tender, 3 to 4 hours.
• Transfer brisket to a work surface and let rest 30 minutes.
• Skim fat from surface of braising liquid and season liquid with salt and pepper.
• Discard thyme sprigs and bay leaves.
• Slice brisket thinly against the grain.
• Transfer back to braising liquid, making sure to submerge slices well.
• Cover and let stand for 30 minutes in a warm place. Serve.
• Brisket can be made up to 4 days ahead and refrigerated whole or sliced in its braising liquid. Reheat gently before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325°F. Sprinkle the salt and pepper to taste over the brisket and rub with the garlic. Sear the brisket in the oil and then place, fat side up, on top of the onions in a large casserole. Cover with the tomatoes, red wine, celery, bay leaf, thyme, and rosemary.
• Cover and bake in the oven for about 3 hours, basting often with the pan juices.
• Add the parsley and carrots and bake, uncovered, for 30 minutes more, or until the carrots are cooked. To test for doneness, stick a fork in the brisket. When there is a light pull on the fork as it is removed from the meat, it is "fork-tender."
• This dish is best prepared in advance and refrigerated so that the fat can be easily skimmed from the surface of the gravy. When ready to serve, preheat the oven to 350°F. Reheat the gravy in a pan on the stove. Some people like to strain the gravy, but Joan prefers to keep the onions because they are so delicious.
• Trim off all the visible fat from the cold brisket. Then place the brisket, on what was the fat side down, on a cutting board. Look for the grain-that is, the muscle lines of the brisket-and with a sharp knife, cut across the grain.
• Put the sliced brisket in a roasting pan. Pour the hot gravy on the meat, cover, and reheat in the oven for about 30 minutes.

Steps:

• Heat brisket in a large skillet or dutch oven over medium-high heat. Cook until browned on all sides. Stir in water, ketchup, vinegar, onions, garlic, brown sugar, and salt. Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce heat to medium-low. Continue simmering until tender, turning brisket occasionally, 2 hours and 30 minutes to 3 hours and 30 minutes.
• Remove brisket and allow to cool before slicing the meat against the grain. Place brisket slices in a 9x13 inch baking pan or large platter and pour gravy on top. Cover and refrigerate overnight. Remove any excess fat and reheat before serving.
