By Mary John Resch The holiday season tends to be a busy time of the year regardless of how well organized you are or how much preparation you have done in advance. Because of this all of us need easy main dishes that we can literally sling together. This recipe appeared in one of the Taste of Home publications about a year ago and we tried it. I thought it was delicious. I took the leftovers to Mary Alice and she and Steve agreed that the recipe is definitely a keeper. Because you have a lot of juice with this recipe, you need to be sure and use a large roasting pan. The sauce is delicious with rice or noodles. Cranberry Beef Brisket Serves 10 1 fresh beef brisket (4-5 pounds) 2 tablespoons vegetable oil 1can (16 ounces) whole berry cranberry sauce 1/2 cup beef broth 1/2 cup red wine 1 envelope dry onion soup mix Trim visible fat from brisket and discard. In a large skillet, brown beef in oil on both sides. Remove from pan and transfer to a greased roasting pan. In a bowl, combine the remaining ingredients; pour over beef. Cover and bake at 300 degrees. Check after 2 hours, if meat is not tender continue cooking until it is tender. Watch carefully at this point. Strain cooking juices if desired to serve with the meat. Our roast was approximately 5 1/2 pounds after it was trimmed. We checked the meat at about 2 1/2 hours and it was done. Sauce was delicious. Your cooking time may vary depending on your oven and the pot you use. We were using a heavy pot with a tight fitting lid. |
