Best. Brisket. Ever. (Edit recipe)

Okay, so certainly there are many amazing briskets out there, and I have tasted many. But this was outrageously tender, slice with a fork, plates licked clean kind of good. It really was. This is more your Grandma’s Brisket than it is a Texas BBQ brisket. And you can trust that I know both well with my Southern roots!

Process

Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results

Coat the bottom of a large stockpot with avocado oil
Heat on medium/high
Rub ground pepper on both sides of brisket and put into oil
After about 7 minutes flip brisket over to brown other side
Once both sides of brisket are nicely browned, place sliced onions in the bottom on the stockpot
Place brisket back on top of the onions
Pour the beef broth over the brisket and put garlic into stockpot as well as carrots
Bring to a simmer and continue simmering for about 4 hours
Turn down heat after 4 hours and remove brisket from pot
Slice and serve with carrots, onions, the broth/gravy and whatever greens you wish!
If you wish to make this in your Instant Pot , you’ll want to use the saute feature to cook the onions in a bit of oil first then you can brown both sides of your peppered brisket just as in the directions above. Finally you’ll want to pour your broth in and add your carrots, then cook on high pressure for 50 minutes. Tender delicious brisket in under an hour!
