TEXAS OVEN-ROASTED BEEF BRISKET

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

• Add beef stock and enough water to yield about 1/2 inch of liquid in the roasting pan. Lower oven to 300 degrees F, cover pan tightly and continue cooking for 3 hours, or until fork-tender.
• Trim the fat and slice meat thinly across the grain. Top with juice from the pan.

Steps:

• Fill a 1-quart FoodSaver Vacuum Seal Bag with 1 cup (130 g) fresh cranberries, and another with 1 bunch each of fresh thyme, sage, and rosemary.
• To seal the bag, turn the latch on the FoodSaver to the open position and open the lid. Place the open end of the bag into the Vacuum Channel (Drip Tray) and close the lid. Turn the latch to the Operate position. Press the Vacuum button to begin the vacuum and sealing process. The motor will continue to run until the bag is fully vacuumed, then will automatically seal. When Seal indicator light turns off, turn the latch to the Open position, open the lid and remove the bag.
• Repeat with the other bag, then place in the freezer until ready to use.
• Make the seasoning rub: Open the vacuumed-sealed bags of frozen cranberries and herbs and add ½ cup of the cranberries, 2 tablespoons each of the thyme, sage, and rosemary leaves, and the garlic cloves to a food processor. Pulse for 1-2 minutes, or until everything is finely chopped. Add the olive oil and blend for 10 seconds, or until well combined.
• Make the brisket: Place the brisket on a plate and cover evenly with the seasoning rub and then place inside a 1-gallon FoodSaver Vacuum Seal Bag allowing for at least 3 inches of space between the contents and the open end of the bag.
• To seal the bag, turn the latch on the FoodSaver to the open position and open the lid. Place the open end of the bag into the Vacuum Channel (Drip Tray) and close the lid. Turn the latch to the Operate position. Press the Mode button (on the left side of the lid near the Seal Button) until Moist is illuminated. Press the Vacuum button to begin the vacuum and sealing process. The motor will continue to run until the bag is fully vacuumed, then will automatically seal. When Seal indicator light turns off, turn the latch to the Open position, open the lid and remove the bag. Place the bag in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, up to overnight.
• When ready to cook the brisket, preheat the oven to 325°F (160°C) and heat a large cast iron skillet over high heat until very hot.
• Cut below the seal of the brisket bag, releasing the vacuum seal and remove the brisket.
• Place the brisket, fat-side down into the cast iron pan and sear for 4-6 minutes, until a thick, golden crust forms. Repeat with the remaining sides of the brisket, then transfer to a 9 x 13-inch baking dish and set aside.
• Reduce the heat to medium and add the shallot and remaining ½ cup cranberries to the pan. Cook for 2-3 minutes, until the shallot is soft and starting to brown. Add the beef broth, soy sauce, maple syrup, balsamic vinegar and salt and bring to a simmer, scraping up the browned bits from the bottom of the skillet. Remove the pan from the heat and pour the braising liquid over the brisket.
• Scatter 2-3 sprigs each of thyme, sage, and rosemary around the brisket and cover the baking dish tightly with foil.
• Transfer to the oven and bake until the brisket can be pierced with a fork with little to no resistance, 3-3½ hours.
• Slice the brisket against the grain into ¼-inch slices and serve with the braising liquid ladled on top.
• To save leftovers, place with the brisket in a FoodSaver zipper bag and seal according to the instructions in step 6. Store in the freezer for up to 6 months.
• Enjoy!

BEST BEEF BRISKET RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Turn the broiler on high.
• Set the brisket in a large roasting pan. Season generously on all sides with 1½-2 tablespoons of salt and ground black pepper to taste.
• Turn the brisket fat-side up and broil for 12-15 minutes, depending on the thickness of the fat cap, until there is no white fat remaining. Flip and broil for another 5-6 minutes on the second side, until browned.
• Preheat the oven to 275˚F (135°C).
• In a large bowl, stir together the beef stock, tomato purée, red wine vinegar, honey, paprika, garlic powder, and cumin until well combined.
• Make a bouquet garni: Fold a 6-inch square piece of cheesecloth in half and lay the thyme, bay leaves, and whole black peppercorns in the center. Fold the sides of the cheesecloth over the herbs and roll up to resemble a cigar. Tie with 3 2-inch pieces of twine to secure.
• If the roasting pan fits on the stovetop, remove the brisket from the pan and set aside. Place the roasting pan on the stovetop and add the olive oil to the rendered beef fat in the pan. Heat over medium-high heat until shimmering. (Alternatively, remove the brisket from the roasting pan and pour any rendered beef fat into a large pot. Add the olive oil and heat over medium-high heat until shimmering.) Add the onions and carrots and season with the remaining teaspoon of salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are soft and translucent, 6-8 minutes. Deglaze the pan with the red wine, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom.
• If using the roasting pan, spread the vegetables in an even layer and place the brisket, fat-side up, on top. (If using a separate pot, transfer the vegetables back to the roasting pan, spread in an even layer, and place the brisket on top.) Pour the beef stock mixture over the brisket and nestle the bouquet garni into the vegetables. Cover the pan with heavy-duty aluminum foil.
• Transfer the roasting pan to the oven and bake for 5-6 hours, until a fork can be easily inserted into the thickest part of the brisket.
• Remove the roasting pan from the oven and let cool for about 1 hour at room temperature, then transfer to the refrigerator to chill overnight. Resting overnight is optional, but recommended. (The brisket should rest, covered, for a minimum of 1 hour before slicing; however, the meat will be very tender and fall apart easily).
• The following day, preheat the oven to 200˚F (95°C). Set a wire rack over a baking sheet.
• Remove the brisket from the braising liquid and transfer to the wire rack. Cover with aluminum foil. Transfer the brisket to the oven and bake for about 1 hour, until warmed through.
• While the brisket is warming, make the sauce. Remove the bouquet garni from the braising liquid and scoop the solidified fat from the surface (it's okay if you don't get it all; you will skim the sauce as it simmers). Strain the vegetables from the braising liquid and set aside.
• Transfer 3 cups of the braising liquid to a large, high-walled skillet. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for 35-40 minutes, stirring occasionally, and skimming the fat that rises to the surface, until reduced by about half. Transfer to a gravy boat or medium bowl.
• When ready to serve, thinly slice the brisket against the grain. Serve with the vegetables and reduced braising liquid.
• Enjoy!
