Cooking Method: Day One

• Pre-heat oven to 400 degrees.
• 1. In a pre-heated Dutch oven or roasting pan, add 3 Tbsp. olive oil, sliced onions, 4 slivered garlic, sliced mushrooms and rough cut carrots. Heat until slightly browned and tender. About 5-7 minutes. Remove vegetables and set aside.
• 2. Season meat with salt, pepper
• 3. In the same pan, add a little more oil and sear meat on both sides.
• 4. Remove to a plate. Cut slits into the non-fatty side of brisket and stuff with garlic slivers.
• 5. Generously spread tomato paste over top of the brisket to cover. (You may have leftovers of the paste depending on size of your brisket. Store leftover paste in a glass container in refrigerator.
• 6. Sprinkle with garlic powder and onion flakes.
• 7. Place half of the cooked onions, mushrooms, and carrots on bottom of the 9 x 13 or Dutch oven.
• 8. Place brisket on top of vegetables.
• 9. Top meat with the remaining onions, mushrooms and carrots.
• 10. Add fresh thyme and oregano as well as fresh ground pepper.
• 11. Pour 1/2 cup dry red wine and 1 box, 34 cups, organic beef broth over top* (if not using wine, use all 4 cups of the beef or veggie broth)
• 12. Cover and braise for 15 minutes in the 400 degree oven.
• 13. Reduce oven heat to 275 & bake for 5-6 hours covered with a lid or parchment paper, then tin foil to seal tightly.
• 14. Braise meat until fork tender. Check after 4-5 hours by piercing the brisket with a sharp knife or fork to see how tender it is. Bison might take longer.
• 15. Remove from oven. Let cool completely before putting brisket, vegetables, and sauce into refrigerator.
• 16. Below is how we’ve separated all 3: meat, juice, and the vegetables. Now they are ready to store in the refrigerator.

Cooking Method: Day 2 Get Ready to Serve.

Preheat oven to 350.

• 1. Slice brisket against the grain. Against the grain means when you look at the brisket after it’s cooked, there are lines in the brisket that runs one way. Cut opposite from the direction the grain. If meat flakes or pulls apart you are not cutting against the grain. Turn the brisket until you can cut a clean slice before going on. See recipe video for the visual.
• 2. Once you’ve cut the entire brisket, start to layer into your roasting pan or the baking dish you will be serving it in.
• 3. Add the carrots, onions and mushrooms over the meat.
• 4. Skim fat off from top of liquid and pour it over the sliced beef and vegetables.
• 5. When serving, re-heat sliced brisket and vegetables in a pre-heated 350-degree oven for 30-45 minutes covered. When it is hot and bubbly lower temperature and cook for longer time.
• NOTE: If more stock is needed use another cup of the of the prepared stock.
