Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C).

  2. In a large Dutch oven or oven-safe pot, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Sear the beef brisket on all sides until nicely browned, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove the brisket from the pot and set it aside.

  3. In the same pot, add the sliced onion and minced garlic. Sauté until the onions are soft and translucent, about 5 minutes.

  4. Pour in the beef broth and red wine (if using), scraping the bottom of the pot to release any browned bits. This adds incredible flavor to the dish!

  5. Stir in the Worcestershire sauce, brown sugar, Dijon mustard, dried thyme, paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix well to combine all the flavors.

  6. Return the seared beef brisket to the pot, nestling it into the liquid and onions. Cover the pot with a lid or aluminum foil.

  7. Transfer the pot to the preheated oven and let the brisket cook for approximately 3-4 hours, or until the meat is fork-tender. You can also cook it on the stovetop on low heat if you prefer.

  8. Check the brisket occasionally and baste it with the cooking liquid to keep it moist and flavorful.

  9. Once the brisket is cooked to perfection, remove it from the oven and let it rest for about 15 minutes before slicing.

  10. Slice the beef brisket against the grain into thin slices. Serve it with the onions and the delicious cooking liquid poured over the top.

  11. Enjoy your tender and flavorful beef brisket with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a fresh green salad.
