Ingredients

  • 3 pounds beef brisket
  • 2 pounds golden potatoes
  • 2 large yellow onion
  • 4 whole garlic cloves
  • 2 cups beef broth
  • 2 tablespoons tomato paste
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 4 medium carrots

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C).

Step 2

Pat the beef brisket dry with paper towels and season generously on both sides with salt and black pepper.

Step 3

Heat the olive oil in a large Dutch oven or oven-safe pot over medium-high heat.

Step 4

Sear the brisket on all sides until it forms a deep golden-brown crust, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove the brisket and set aside.

Step 5

Lower the heat to medium and add the onions (sliced into half-moons) to the pot. Cook until softened and slightly caramelized, about 5 minutes.

Step 6

Stir in the minced garlic, tomato paste, paprika, and dried thyme. Cook for 1-2 more minutes until fragrant.

Step 7

Pour in the beef broth, scraping the bottom of the pot to release any browned bits. Bring the liquid to a simmer.

Step 8

Return the seared brisket to the pot. Cover tightly with a lid or foil and transfer it to the preheated oven. Cook for 2 hours.

Step 9

Meanwhile, peel and cut the potatoes into large chunks. Peel and slice the carrots into 2-inch pieces.

Step 10

After 2 hours, remove the pot from the oven and add the potatoes and carrots around the brisket. Spoon some of the cooking liquid over the vegetables.

Step 11

Cover the pot again and return to the oven for another 1.5-2 hours, or until the brisket is fork-tender and the vegetables are cooked through.

Step 12

Remove the brisket and vegetables from the pot. If desired, skim any excess fat from the cooking liquid and simmer it on the stovetop for 5-10 minutes to thicken into a sauce.

Step 13

Slice the brisket against the grain and serve with the potatoes, carrots, and the sauce spooned over the top.
