Ingredients:

  • 1.5 – 2 kg (3 – 4 lb) beef brisket (remove fat cap)
  • Kosher salt
  • Black pepper
  • 30 ml (2 tbsp) olive oil
  • 2 large onions, sliced
  • 3 – 4 carrots, cut into chunks
  • 500 ml (2 cups) beef broth
  • 250 ml (1 cup) Carmine’s ‘Q Sauce Sauce (your favourite flavour)

Instructions:

  1. Preheat oven or grill to 325°F (165°C). Remove fat cap and dry brisket well. Rub entire brisket with a generous amount of salt and pepper. Over medium-high heat, sear all both sides of the brisket using a large Dutch oven or other stove-top / oven-safe pot medium-high until golden-brown, remove from pot, set aside
  2. Sauté the onions and carrots in the same pot, until slightly soft; place brisket (fat-cap side up) back into pot
  3. Combine beef broth and Carmine’s ‘Q Sauce, mix well, pour over brisket
  4. Cover and bake in the pre-heated grill or oven for 3 – 4 hours, or until very tender with internal temperature 90–96°C (195–205°F)
  5. Let brisket rest 15 – 30 minutes
  6. Cut or pull brisket, serve with cooked vegetables, drizzled with pan drippings
