This tangy, sweet brisket recipe makes a wonderful main dish, or a fabulous appetizer when paired with crackers or bread rounds. It's been a favorite with my husband's family for years. This recipe can also be prepared in a slow cooker.
INGREDIENTS (for 1 servings):
- 1 (3 pound) beef brisket
- 1 cup Catalina salad dressing
- 1 (1 ounce) envelope dry onion soup mix
- 1 (12 ounce) package fresh cranberries
PREPARATION:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Place brisket in 9x13 inch pan.
In a medium bowl, combine dressing, soup mix, and cranberries. Pour over brisket, and cover pan with foil.
Cook for 3 to 4 hours, or until brisket is extremely tender. Brisket will get very dark/caramelized; this adds flavor, and doesn't mean that you have overcooked it.
