- Ready In:
- 6hrs 45mins
- Ingredients:
- 6
- Serves:
-
10-12
ingredients
- 1 (5 lb) corned beef brisket, flat cut
- 1 tablespoon browning sauce (such as Kitchen Bouquet)
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 1 onion, sliced
- 6 garlic cloves, sliced
- 2 tablespoons water
directions
- Preheat oven to 275 degrees F (135 degrees C).
- Discard any flavoring packet from corned beef. Brush brisket with browning sauce on both sides. Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and brown brisket on both sides in the hot oil, 5 to 8 minutes per side.
- Place brisket on a rack set in a roasting pan. Scatter onion and garlic slices over brisket and add water to roasting pan. (Yes, only 2 tablespoons!) Cover pan very tightly with double aluminum foil.
- Roast in the preheated oven until meat is tender, about 6 hours. Resist the temptation to check on the meat during this long braise. It will release too much steam and your brisket will dry out.

I LOVE to cook and bake nearly everything!
I HATE to see people join the site, have no published recipes, but rag on another cook in a review on a recipe they haven't even tried or didn't follow.
Oh, and I hate cilantro, too. :)
