Slow-Cooked Beef Brisket
Ingredients:
3-4 lb beef brisket
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 large onion, sliced
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 1/2 cups beef broth
1 cup BBQ sauce (your choice)
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Directions:
Prepare the Brisket: Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C). In a small bowl, mix together smoked paprika, cumin, salt, and black pepper. Rub this mixture all over the beef brisket.
Sear the Brisket: Heat olive oil in a large oven-safe pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Sear the brisket on all sides until browned, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove the brisket and set it aside.
Cook the Aromatics: In the same pot, add the sliced onions and garlic. Sauté for about 3 minutes until softened and fragrant.
Add the Liquid: Pour in the beef broth, BBQ sauce, Worcestershire sauce, and brown sugar. Stir well to combine and bring to a simmer.
Slow Cook the Brisket: Return the seared brisket to the pot, cover, and transfer it to the oven. Cook for 3-4 hours, basting occasionally, until the brisket is tender and can be easily shredded with a fork.
Rest and Serve: Once done, remove the brisket from the pot and let it rest for 10 minutes. Slice or shred the brisket and serve with the rich sauce from the pot. Garnish with fresh parsley and enjoy!
