EASY BAKED BEEF BRISKET



Easy Baked Beef Brisket image

For a brisket recipe, this is considered very fast. The convention of cooking it low and slow often results in dried-out meat that never reaches the proper internal temperature. Instead of waiting all day and risking such disappointment, we dial up the temperature slightly and bake it in about half the time to ensure it's both tender and moist. Garnish with chives if desired.

Time 12h15m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 pounds first-cut brisket (or flat-cut), trimmed of fat
4 teaspoons kosher salt
2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
½ teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 tablespoons butter
1 large yellow onion, sliced
1 teaspoon kosher salt
4 cloves garlic, sliced
1 tablespoon minced fresh rosemary
1 cup apple juice

Steps:

  • Season both sides of the brisket generously with salt, pepper, and cayenne. For best results, place brisket over an aluminum foil "rack" set over a plate and refrigerate, uncovered, 8 to 12 hours.
  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
  • Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add onion and salt. Cook and stir until translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in garlic, rosemary, and apple juice. Increase heat to high and boil until liquid is reduced by about half, about 3 minutes.
  • Transfer half of the apple-onion mixture into a baking dish. Place brisket fat-side up on top; cover with remaining apple-onion mixture. Cover baking dish tightly with foil.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour 30 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 250 degrees F (121 degrees C) and bake until fork-tender, about 2 hours 15 minutes. Check for doneness after 2 hours.
  • Transfer brisket to a plate and tent with foil.
  • Pour the onions and braising liquid into a large measuring cup or bowl. Skim some fat off the top. Puree with a stick blender to create a gravy.
  • Slice brisket across the grain and serve with the gravy.

BEEF ESSENTIALS: OVEN-BAKED BRISKET & VEGGIES



Beef Essentials: Oven-Baked Brisket & Veggies image

I made this brisket for Sunday dinner, and everyone loved it. I used a two-heat cooking method, and a "special" dry rub. A few hours later, we had brisket, taters, and carrots... So yummy. FYI: I really wanted to take some photos of the brisket on the plate with the veggies, but my hungry guests grabbed it up before I could...
