Slow-Roasted Brisket with Garlic & Herb Rub

Tender, Flavorful & Made to Share

A Classic Comfort Dish with a Gourmet Touch

There’s something timeless about a well-cooked brisket — tender, juicy slices that melt in your mouth and fill the room with rich, savory aromas. This Slow-Roasted Brisket is infused with garlic, herbs, and a touch of spice, then cooked low and slow until it’s perfectly fork-tender.

Ideal for Sunday dinners, holiday gatherings, or any time you want to bring people together around the table. Serve it up on a stunning platter from our Set The Scene - Your Table Your Way collection to complete the experience.

Ingredients

(Serves 6–8)

• 4 to 5 lb beef brisket

• 2 tbsp olive oil

• 1 tbsp kosher salt

• 1 tsp black pepper

• 1 tbsp smoked paprika

• 1 tbsp brown sugar

• 6 cloves garlic, minced

• 1 tbsp fresh rosemary, chopped

• 1 tbsp fresh thyme leaves

• 1 tbsp Dijon mustard

• 1 cup beef broth

• 1/2 cup red wine (or additional broth)

• 1 large onion, sliced

• 2 carrots, cut into large chunks

• 2 celery stalks, chopped

Instructions

1. Preheat & Prep:
   Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C). Pat the brisket dry with paper towels.

2. Make the Rub:
   In a small bowl, mix olive oil, salt, pepper, paprika, brown sugar, garlic, rosemary, thyme, and Dijon mustard into a paste. Rub it all over the brisket, pressing it into the meat.

3. Sear the Brisket (Optional):
   For extra flavor, sear the brisket in a hot skillet for 2–3 minutes per side to create a browned crust.

4. Layer the Veggies:
   In a large roasting pan or Dutch oven, layer the onions, carrots, and celery. Place the brisket on top, fat-side up.

5. Add Liquid & Roast:
   Pour beef broth and wine around the brisket (not over it). Cover tightly with foil or a lid and roast for 3.5 to 4.5 hours, until fork-tender.

6. Rest & Slice:
   Let the brisket rest, covered, for 20–30 minutes before slicing against the grain. Serve with the roasted vegetables and pan juices spooned over top.

Serving Tip:

Brisket is made for sharing — display yours on a large wooden cutting board or a deep ceramic platter from Set The Scene. Surround it with fresh herbs or roasted veggies for an extra touch of warmth and elegance.
