When I invite people for dinner, my friends most of the time, they always expect me to either cook pasta or chicken. After finding this gem of a recipe, I decided to try and surprise them by bringing a new dish to the table. And boy, were they surprised. They probably thought all I could cook was chicken. This is what I love about this recipe. It takes very little effort to prepare. Granted that it takes a few hours in the oven, I could at least do a few more things in between.
This one is something that you should try. It’s a recipe that doesn’t disappoint.
Ingredients
3-pound Tyson piece beef brisket
Seasoning Mixture:
1 envelope Lipton French Onion soup mix
3/4 cup of water
1/2 cup of Heinz ketchup
1 teaspoon fresh minced garlic
1 tablespoon minced parsley
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
Gravy:
1 tablespoon of Wesson vegetable oil
1 tablespoon of Gold Medal flour
Optional Garnish:
Minced parsley
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Spray a 9 x 13 inch bake pan with cooking spray.
In a medium bowl, stir together all seasoning mixture ingredients.
Wipe brisket dry and lay it into the bake pan, tucking in the ends if necessary to fit into the pan. Pour the seasoning mixture over the meat, turning to coat both sides.
Cover the pan with foil and roast for about 3 hours, to an internal temperature of 200 degrees F.
Remove meat to a cutting board and let rest, covered with foil, while making the gravy.
Pour juices from the bake pan into a small saucepan and place over medium heat until it comes just to the boil.
Combine oil and flour in a small bowl until completely smooth, then add to the simmering juices. Cook and stir until lightly thickened, about 3 minutes.
Cut brisket across the grain (crosswise) into thin slices. Garnish with parsley and serve with the gravy.
