BRISKET & ONIONS INGREDIENTS • • • • • • • • 1 tablespoon olive oil 2 large yellow or red onions, halved 31/2 pounds beef brisket Coarse kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper 6 cloves garlic, minced 2 cups beef stock 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce 1 tablespoon soy sauce DIRECTIONS 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Heat a deep sauté pan or cast iron skillet over medium heat with the olive oil. Add the onions and cook on medium-low to medium heat, stirring frequently, for about 20 minutes or until the onions have caramelized lightly. While the onions are cooking, take the brisket out of its packaging and pat it dry. Season the meat generously with salt and pepper. Heat a large skillet or sauté pan over medium-high heat and turn on your vent or fan, if you have one. Sear the brisket until a golden brown crust appears on both sides of the meat. Remove and place in a slow-cooker insert, fatty side up. Sprinkle the minced garlic over the meat. When the onions are lightly browned, pile them on top and around the meat. Mix the beef stock, Worcestershire sauce, and soy sauce, and pour over the brisket. Cover and cook in the slow cooker on Low for 6 to 8 hours or until the brisket is very tender. Let rest for at least 20 minutes before serving in the slow cooker set on Warm. The brisket can be sliced or shredded immediately and served with the onions and juices. Or let the meat cool then refrigerate overnight. Before reheating, scrape away and discard the layer of fat that has formed around the meat.
