CRANBERRY BRISKET

Category: Brisket/Cornbeef

1 (3 lb) center cut beef brisket
Salt and pepper
3 tbsp olive
2 yellow onions, sliced
4 carrots, peeled and cut
3 clove garlic, smashed
2 cups whole berry cranberry sauce

Preheat oven to 350. Trim excess fat off brisket and season with salt and pepper. In a large saute pan, heat oil and brown meat on both sides. Remove meat from pan. To the same pan, add the vegetables and garlic. Saute 4-5 minutes until onions are softened. Remove from heat and stir in the cranberry sauce. Place brisket in baking pan and spoon the mixture over. Bake for 2 hours, covered. Do not lift lid while cooking. Remove pan from oven and transfer meat to cutting board. Slice meat into thin slices. Return brisket slices to pan, mixing into vegetables. Return to oven and bake an additional 1 1/2 hours, basting often. Serve with mashed potatoes.
