Best Ever Brisket
From jadedmom 15 years ago
- 240 minutes to make
- Serves 10
Not the normal tomato or bbq based brisket, this one makes a gravy to be served over mashed potatoes or rice. It cooks in slow oven for a while but it's good! Start it early in the day and you will have a good lunch or supper main dish. Read more Tastes almost like roast and gravy, See less
Ingredients
- 4-5 lb. Point end brisket, trimmed as much as you can shopping list
- creole or cajun seasoning shopping list
- cracked black pepper shopping list
- garlic powder shopping list
- 1 can cream of mushroom soup shopping list
- 1 can french onioin soup shopping list
- 1 can beef consumme (optional) shopping list
How to make it
- Make sure meat is minus as much fat as possible, this will save you time later skimming grease and fat off your gravy.
- Heavily season meat with garlic powder and black pepper.
- Dust with either cajun seasoning or salt
- In a large pan with lid (I use my roaster) spoon cream of mushroom soup at the bottom.
- place a rack over the soup and place meat on it, fattier side up.
- Spoon french onion soup over the meat and around it.
- Cover and cook on 350 degrees for 1 hr.
- Lower oven temp. to 200 degrees and continue to cook for 3 hrs more. Don't remove cover during cooking times!
- Let meat rest or cool for 20-30 min. after removing from pan.
- Slice cross grain with an electric knife.
- Check your gravy in the pan. If seems to thin, cook down some more. If you want extra flavor to it, add the can of beef consumme and cook down to the consistancy you would like.
- It goes a long way, and makes good sandwhiches the next day..or another meal with mashed potatoes, which is how my family likes it.

I happen to have a couple of briskets sitting in the freezer, looks like a fantastic excuse to thaw one out.
Thank you,
