Ingredients
- Fresh thyme
- 2 sprigs
- Fresh rosemary
- 2 sprigs
- Salt
- to taste
- Pepper
- to taste
- Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tablespoon
- Beef broth
- 2 cups
- Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons
- Garlic
- 2 cloves, minced
- Onion
- 1 large, chopped
- Potatoes
- 1.5 pounds, cut into bite-sized pieces
- Beef brisket
- 3 pounds
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 325°F (165°C).
- Season the brisket generously with salt and pepper.
- Heat the olive oil in a large oven-safe pot over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, add the brisket and sear on all sides until it develops a beautiful brown crust. Once seared, remove the brisket from the pot and set it aside.
- In the same pot, add the chopped onion and minced garlic. Sauté until they become aromatic and the onions turn translucent.
- Add in the bite-sized pieces of potatoes, beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, rosemary, and thyme to the pot. Stir everything together until well combined.
- Nestle the seared brisket on top of the potato mixture. Make sure it's tucked in so that it can absorb all the glorious flavors.
- Cover the pot and transfer it to your preheated oven. Allow it to cook for 3-4 hours. The dish is ready when the brisket is tender enough to pull apart with a fork and the potatoes are cooked through.
- Once cooked, remove the pot from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before serving. This allows the flavors to meld together, enhancing the overall taste of the dish.
Tips
- For a slight variation, add in some chopped carrots or bell peppers for additional flavor and color.
- If you prefer your beef brisket to have a bit of a kick, consider adding a touch of cayenne pepper or smoked paprika to the seasoning.
