I made this for dinner and it was so simple and so excellent, thank you. I made a few changes – did not add horseradish, and did not add rosemary – just not my taste. I also used chicken consommé instead of beef stock as I prefer it. Came out amazing! Thanks so much, will definitely make this recipe again!
I just made lipton onion SLO cooker brisket and was disappointed, just too salty. My technique was to put mirepoix at bottom of cooker with small-ish Yukon gold potatoes whole and lay meat on top. The texture of meat was excellent but maybe b/c kosher meat too salty. Next time I make my own rub. At the end of 8 hrs on low I discard mirepoix, kept potatoes and had a quart of brown stock, I thickend w flour on stove, and added prunes to sweeten, used blender to smooth. Too salty so I peeled 2 of cooked potatoes and threw them in blender. Muchbetter. Next time I’ll make my own rub, no salt! & Leave out potatoes.
So I made this for dinner Friday night and was not too happy with the results. The horseradish seemed to give the beef a bitter taste. Think I’ll stick with my stand by onion soup mix.
I think this sounds wonderful, making it for tomorrow nights dinner. But I won’t be able to take a picture as it will not be done until Shabbat has begun. Maybe next time. Shabbat Shalom
