INGREDIENTS

  • Main Ingredients

    • 🥩 1 (4 pound) beef brisket
  • Seasonings & Oils

    • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
    • Ground black pepper to taste
    • 🧂 Salt to taste
  • Aromatics

    • 🧅 2 onions, thickly sliced
    • 🧄 2 cloves garlic, peeled and cut in half

STEPS

1

Heat oil in a large deep skillet or pot over medium-high heat. Season 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 onions in the pan. Place the uncooked side of the roast down onto onions. Repeat the browning process.

2

Add garlic to the pan, and fill with enough water to almost cover the roast. Bring to a simmer.

3

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.

4

Remove the brisket to a serving platter. Bring 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.
