Ingredients

  • 1 , 3 pound
  • 0.5 teaspoons seasoned salt
  • 0.25 teaspoons ground black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 large onions , sliced
  • 3 cloves garlic , minced
  • 1 cup beef broth
  • 1 cup ketchup
  • 0.33 cups packed brown sugar
  • 0.33 cups cider vinegar
  • 3 tablespoons chili powder
  • 2 bays leaves
  • 0.25 teaspoons cayenne pepper
  • 0.25 cups cold water
  • 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour

Instructions

  1. 1

    Sprinkle brisket with seasoned salt and black pepper.

  2. 2

    Heat oil in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Sear brisket in hot oil until browned on both sides, then transfer to a large plate. Cook and stir onions and garlic in the Dutch oven until vegetables are softened, about 6 minutes. Return brisket to the Dutch oven.

  3. 3

    Whisk beef broth, ketchup, brown sugar, vinegar, chili powder, bay leaves, and cayenne pepper together in a bowl; drizzle over brisket.

  4. 4

    Bring mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer until beef is very tender and easily falls apart when pulled with a fork, 2 1/2 to 3 hours. Remove and discard bay leaves. Transfer beef to a platter, reserving liquid in the Dutch oven. Slice beef.

  5. 5

    Whisk water and flour together in a small bowl; stir into the Dutch oven and bring to a boil until sauce is thickened. Serve sauce over sliced brisket.
