Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven 350 degrees.

Combine garlic powder, salt, pepper, and onion soup mix. Coat brisket with spice mixture. Spread the mustard, then ketchup over the seasoned brisket and place in an ovenproof Dutch oven or similar covered pan.

Pour white wine and beef stock around the brisket so you don't rinse off the seasonings.

Covere and bake the brisket 35-40 minutes per pound. (An 8-lb brisket cooks for approximately 4-1/2 to 5-1/2 hours). Cool brisket in pan and refrigerate overnight.

To serve, remove layer of fat that has solidified and reserve the remaining liquid from pan. Carve cold brisket into 1/4-inch slices and return to pan. Pour 1 cup of the reserved liquid over the brisket slices.

Cover and reheat at 350 degree for 45 minutes. Overlap slices on platter and serve.
