Brisket Preparation

    Season the Brisket

    Rub the brisket with salt and black pepper on all sides.

    Transfer the brisket to a slow cooker. Add chopped onion, minced garlic, beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, thyme, and bay leaves. Cover and cook on low for 8 hours or until tender.

Vegetables Preparation

    In a large pot, add peeled and diced potatoes. Cover with water, add salt, and bring to a boil. Cook for about 15-20 minutes or until tender.

    Drain the potatoes and return them to the pot. Add butter, milk, salt, and black pepper. Mash until smooth and creamy.

    Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese on top of the mashed potatoes. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
