Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 10 servings

  • 2 tablespoons paprika

  • 2 tablespoons garlic powder

  • 2 tablespoons ground black pepper

  • 2 tablespoons sea salt

  • 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper

  • cup extra-virgin olive oil

  • 1 (16 ounce) package sliced fresh mushrooms

  • 3 shallots, chopped

  • ¼ cup unsalted margarine

  • 1 ½ cups Worcestershire sauce (such as Lea & Perrins), divided

  • 1 (5 pound) beef brisket

  • 1 (32 fluid ounce) container beef broth (such as Progresso)

  • 2 cups red wine

  • ½ cup water

  • 1 clove garlic, chopped

  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce (such as Lea & Perrins)

  • 2 tablespoons unsalted margarine, thinly sliced

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).

  2. Combine paprika, garlic powder, black pepper, sea salt, and cayenne pepper in a bowl; set spice mixture aside.

  3. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add mushrooms and shallots; cook and stir until mushrooms release their liquid, 5 to 8 minutes. Set mushroom mixture aside.

  4. Melt 1/4 cup margarine in a large skillet over medium-high heat; stir in 1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce. Thoroughly rub beef brisket with spice mixture; place brisket into skillet.

  5. Brown brisket well on all sides, about 5 minutes per side. Pour about 1/2 cup Worcestershire sauce into skillet at a time as sauce cooks into brisket, until 1 1/2 cups Worcestershire sauce has been added.

  6. Place a rack into a heavy Dutch oven; place brisket onto rack. Pour in Worcestershire sauce pan drippings, beef broth, red wine, water, and garlic; top with reserved mushroom mixture. Drizzle remaining 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce over mushrooms and top with remaining 2 tablespoons margarine. Cover the Dutch oven.

  7. Bake in the preheated oven for 3 hours. Reduce heat to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C); bake 1 hour more. Reduce oven temperature to 225 degrees F (105 degrees C); bake 1 hour more. Baste with pan drippings every hour.

  8. Let brisket rest for about 20 minutes before slicing thinly against the grain. Serve with pan gravy.
