Miriam's Holiday Brisket

Serves 8 to 10
Time 4 hrs 20 min

Brisket serves as a festive main course for all the Jewish holidays, and it pairs wonderfully with potato latkes. This brisket is covered with a blanket of chopped vegetables, which helps retain the moisture of the meat, resulting in tender and succulent beef. If you don't have a food processor, the vegetables may also be finely chopped by hand.

Method

Preheat the oven to 300°F. Place brisket in large roasting pan, fat side down.


Put parsley, garlic, onions, carrots and celery into a food processor and pulse to coarsely chop.


Spread over brisket to cover completely. Set aside.


Stir together wine, broth mix, bouillon, salt, pepper, and tomato sauce and pour gently over brisket.


Add bay leaves to the pan.


Cover and roast 45 minutes to 1 hour per pound, until fork tender, but not too soft (about 4 to 5 hours for a 5-pound brisket).


Baste meat with the vegetables and liquid at least once an hour.


Add water as needed to prevent brisket and vegetables from drying out.


Discard bay leaves, slice brisket, and serve with vegetables spooned over the top.
