yield: lots of sandwiches!
Ingredients:
6 – 7 lbs brisket of beef, grass fed
12 oz homemade BBQ sauce
1 large yellow onion, sliced
6 garlic cloves
dash of paprika
dash of garlic salt
1 28 oz. can of whole tomatoes
Instructions:
Preheat oven to 325°F. Pat dry the brisket with paper towels. Put in a large dutch oven (I have a large, oval Le Creuset
Add sliced onion, tomatoes, and homemade BBQ sauce. Cover pot and put in
oven for 3 1/2 – 4 hours. Check it every 45 minutes and baste. Remove
brisket from the pan and let cool to room temp. Once cooled wrap in
foil and refrigerate.
Puree all the sauce from the pan and place in a clean container. Put in fridge until ready to use.
When ready to serve, slice thin and place in a roasting pan. Cover
sliced brisket with pureed sauce (save some for slathering on the
bread). Cover roasting pan and put in a 250°F preheated oven. Heat
brisket for about 25 minutes or until warm to the touch.
Generally, I make the brisket the day before I want to serve it. This
is one of those easy meals; put everything in the pot, put in the oven
and forget about it!
p.s. shred the brisket and put it in fresh corn tortillas with a little bit of pickled onions. so goooood!
