Description

A tender, flavorful slow-braised brisket cooked with smoked salt, Worcestershire, and broth. Perfect for slicing or shredding, this versatile recipe works for family dinners, holidays, or meal prep. 


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 pound of brisket 
  • 2 teaspoons hickory smoked salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 cup beef broth
  • 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce 
  • 2 – 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, avocado oil, or ghee (for searing) 


Instructions

  1. Season the brisket : rub with smoked salt, black pepper, and smoked paprika.
  2. Sear : heat oil (extra virgin olive oil, avocado oil, or ghee) in a Dutch oven or oven-safe pan and sear the brisket on all sides until browned. 
  3. Remove the brisket, add braising liquid, and return the brisket to the pot. 
  4. Braise low and slow : cover tightly and cook at 300°F for 2 – 3 hours, until fork tender. 
  5. Slice or shred : once cooked, thinly slice against the grain for elegant serving or shred for a rustic, pulled-style presentation.

Notes

  • Cook low and slow for maximum tenderness. 
  • Slice thinly against the grain for a more elegant serving option, or shred for a rustic presentation. 
  • Save the braising liquid to keep leftovers moist when reheating.
