Mmmm....after we visited mom and dad about a month ago, and they had this really great beef brisket, I decided to give it a try. Super easy - take a beef brisket, grill it a bit first to sear it and give it some good flavor, then throw it in the dutch oven, dump in a beer and/or some water and/or a little vinegar - whatever you've got. Maybe some garlic cloves. Some salt and pepper. Maybe some Montreal steak seasoning. And then bake the hell out of it. (That's how my mom cooks just about all meat - it's not done til it's been in the oven for many hours) Luckily this is one of those cuts of meat that does well with this sort of treatment!
You'll notice I served it up with some Russian fingerling/banana potatoes that I dug from the garden, and some freshly picked green beans. YUM!
And because we had so much brisket, some went in the freezer, and some became a burrito for lunch one day. I was going for the barbacoa burrito effect, like at Chipotles. Didn't have the flavor QUITE right, but it was still very good!
