A flavorful and tender brisket recipe, perfect for family dinners or special occasions.
Preheat your oven to 150°C (300°F).
Ensure your oven is fully preheated before placing the brisket inside for even cooking.
Place the brisket in a roasting pan, fat side up.
Positioning the brisket fat side up allows the fat to baste the meat as it cooks.
Arrange the sliced onions and carrots around the brisket.
Cut the vegetables into uniform sizes to ensure even cooking.
In a mixing bowl, combine the tomato sauce, cranberry sauce, minced garlic, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Mix the sauce thoroughly to ensure the flavors are well combined.
Pour the sauce mixture over the brisket and vegetables.
Ensure the sauce covers the brisket evenly for maximum flavor.
Cover the roasting pan tightly with aluminum foil and place it in the oven.
Sealing the pan with foil helps retain moisture during cooking.
After cooking, remove the brisket from the oven and let it rest for 15 minutes.
Resting the brisket allows the juices to redistribute, making it more tender.
Slice the brisket against the grain and serve with the vegetables and sauce.
Slicing against the grain ensures the meat is tender and easy to chew.
