A braised, rolled brisket

  1. You have the right idea, but are making it WAY too complicated. I have been cooking this recipe for years in a clay pot. Here is what you do:

    Put your vegetables in the bottom of the clay pot. This can be nearly anything. I like baby carrots, quartered potatoes, onion, sliced mushrooms and parsnips. No seasoning necessary. No need to add liquid of any kind. Just put the vegetables in wet after they are washed. Take a 3-4 lb brisket the way it comes and lay on the vegetables fat side up Do not .add any spices. Salt and pepper is just a habit and is not needed. Put the cover of the clay pot (soaked for about 20 minutes while you are putting the meat and vegetables in) and place in a cold oven with a temperature probe in place in the middle of the brisket. Cook at 400 degrees and remove when the temperature of the brisket hits 205 degrees F. Let sit for 15 minutes and it will be perfect. Easy does it.

  2. Currently in the oven and smelling very great. I hope it also tastes great. Thanks a lot for sharing the recipe.

  3. This rolled brisket is absolutely wonderful! I’ve made brisket before but never rolled. I believe I’ll be rolling my brisket every time I cook one. So juicy and an awesome smell throughout my house. Thanks for sharing your recipe.

  4. Hi everyone, I made this brisket recipe today May 30th 2021. It was so tender. It was like eating very tender prime rib. This is a keeper. I did not put the mushrooms in because I did not have any available. Next time I make it Ill spice the inside. I also rubbed on liquid smoke flavour and Worcestershire sauce. Delicious. #1

  5. I made this as described. It was clearly one of the top 5 dinners I have ever had, and I’m in my late 70’s, so I’ve eaten a lot of dinners. My butcher said a whole brisket would be about 20 pounds. I asked for a 5-6 pound flat cut. It was so thick I could just get the edges to touch when I tied it. My kids and grandkids loved the results.

  6. I’d be grateful for the least complicated way to cook my 845grms of rolled brisket as I cannot stand for long.

    1. If standing at the stove presents a problem, you could try using your oven’s broiler to brown the meat on its own, then remove it form the oven. Then toss the veggies with some oil and broil or roast them to get good color on them. Then combine them all in a roasting pan and cook as suggested in the recipe.
