This is the best brisket you will ever taste! No matter who comes for dinner, they always make sure that I'll be making this brisket. It is a very traditional dish for Rosh Hashanah and Passover but it certainly is a winner any time of the year for anyone who loves very tender beef.

Heat brisket in a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Cook until browned on all sides. Stir in water, ketchup, vinegar, onions, garlic, brown sugar, and salt. Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce heat to medium-low. Continue simmering until tender, turning brisket occasionally, 2 hours and 30 minutes to 3 hours and 30 minutes.

Remove brisket and allow to cool before slicing the meat against the grain. Place brisket slices in a 9x13-inch baking pan or large platter and pour gravy on top. Cover and refrigerate overnight. Remove any excess fat and reheat before serving.

Drunken Cranberry Sauce
A family recipe we have used for years. We love it as a side dish to our turkey on Thanksgiving day. Also goes well on chicken, pork, and beef. Makes a great treat as an appetizer served with crackers, or can even be used over vanilla ice cream. I like to add the orange zest a couple tablespoons at a time, as not to overdo it. Adjust sweetness by adding 1 tablespoon sugar at a time at the end of cooking if needed.
Sous Vide Cauliflower
With so many great Asian dishes on this site (check out Chef John's caramel chicken, for example), we always look for interesting side dishes to pair with them. This sous vide-cauliflower side dish proved to be a great accompaniment. My family fights over who gets to finish it.
Baked Potatoes on the Grill
These baked potatoes on the grill are so easy to do when you are cooking outside in the summer. They have crispy skin, and the center is soft. Delicious split open and topped with butter or whatever toppings you like!
