Apple Spiced Brisket Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450°F.
• Line a roasting pan with heavy duty tin foil, with extra on the sides.
• Add brisket.
• Salt on both sides and prick on both sides.
• Roast for 1 hour; remove from oven, drain fat.
• Lower oven to 350°F.
• Mix apple juice, honey and spices, pour over brisket, cover tightly with foil, return to oven cook 2 hours.
• Remove brisket to platter.
• Pour cooking juices into a saucepan, add apple and raisins, bring to a boil lower to a simmer and cook about 5 minutes until apples are tender, about 5-8 minutes slice brisket against the grain, spoon sauce over.

Steps:

• Make the brisket: Heat oven to 300 degrees. In a small bowl, combine the coffee, smoked paprika, coriander, garlic powder, cinnamon, pepper and 2 teaspoons salt. Mix well and rub all over the brisket.
• Heat a large Dutch oven over medium. Add the oil and brown the brisket, taking care not to burn the spices, about 5 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate.
• Reduce the heat to medium-low. Add sliced onion, garlic and remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion is softened and golden, 8 to 10 minutes.
• Add the red wine, scrape up any brown bits and reduce the liquid by half. Add the pomegranate juice and stock. Bring to a simmer and return the brisket to the pot with the fatty-side up. Cover with the lid, place in the center of the oven, and braise until fork-tender, about 3 1/2 hours, basting every hour or so.
• Uncover and nestle the cipollini onions in the liquid. Cover and braise in the oven for another 45 minutes. The meat should be very tender. Uncover and carefully transfer the meat to a cutting board. Let stand until cool enough to handle.
• Meanwhile, scoop the cipollini onions into a bowl with a slotted spoon. Pour the sauce into a fat separator or a tall container and remove as much fat as you can. Pour the sauce back into the pot, slice the meat and return it to the pot along with the onions, using a brush or spoon to encourage the sauce between the slices. Heat the broiler with the rack 8 inches from the heat source.
• Partly cover the Dutch oven and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to simmer until the meat is completely warmed through. Remove the lid and transfer the Dutch oven to the broiler. Broil, basting a few times, until the sauce thickens and the top is glazed, about 8 minutes.
• To serve, dress the parsley with the lemon juice, olive oil, salt and pepper, and sprinkle over top along with the pomegranate seeds. Serve immediately with mashed potatoes.

Steps:

• Place brisket, onion, cloves, and garlic in a large Dutch oven; add water to cover. Bring to a boil; cover, reduce heat, and simmer 2 1/2 hours. Remove the brisket from the Dutch oven. Place the brisket in a roasting pan.
• Combine the apple butter and the remaining ingredients in a medium saucepan. Cook over medium heat for 3 to 4 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Brush 1/2 cup apple butter mixture over the brisket. Bake, uncovered, at 325 degrees for 30 minutes, basting occasionally with the remaining apple butter mixture.

Steps:

• Position rack in the center of the oven and heat to 325 dgrees F.
• heat the oil in a large Dutch oven or small roasting pan over medium-high heat. Add the brisket and cook, turning once until browned on both sides, about 8 minutes. Transfer to a plate.
• Add the onions to the same pot and cook, stirring occasionally, just until softened, about 5 minutes. Place the brisket on top of the onions, add the cider and molasses and sprinkle with the garlic and herbs. If necessary, add more cider (or even water) to almost cover the brisket. Bring to a simmer then cover tightly and place in the oven and bake for 3 hours or until fork tender.
• Uncover and let the brisket cool in the pot. Cover and refrigerate until the next day.
• Scrape off and discard any hardened fat on the surface of the cooking liquid. Transfer meat to a carving board and slice thinly against the grain.
• Meanwhile, bring the cooking liquid to a boil over high heat. Taste and if the flavor needs concentrating, simmer for a few minutes to evaporate excess liquid. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Return the sliced brisket to the liquid , reduce the heat to medium-low; simmer until heated through. Serve hot with the onions.

Steps:

• Place brisket in the crockpot. Place onion slices over top.
• In a small bowl, whisk together all remaining ingredients; pour over the brisket and onions in the crockpot.
• Cover and cook on low for about 8 hours or until desired doneness.
