By marxpatricia

Ingredients

• 1 beef brisket (4-5 pounds)
• 1 large onion, sliced
• 12 oz. Bennet’s Chili Sauce or regular tomato juice
• 1/2 cup brown sugar
• 1 pack onion soup mix
• 6 medium carrots, peeled and diced
• 6-8 small roasting potatoes, peeled

Preparation

Step 1

Pre-heat oven to 325 degrees F. For best results allow brisket to reach room temperature before cooking. Place brisket in roasting pan. Mix brown sugar, chili (or tomato) sauce and onion soup mix together. Pour mixture over the brisket. Arrange onion slices evenly on top of brisket. Cover with foil and bake for 2-2 ½ hours. Remove brisket from oven and uncover. Add carrot pieces and potatoes, baste with juices and bake uncovered in oven for one more hour.
