Main Ingredients

For the Beef Jus

Method

Cooking the Brisket

  1. 1

    Prepare the Brisket

    Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C). Pat the beef brisket dry with paper towels. In a small bowl, mix together the salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika. Rub this spice mixture all over the brisket.

  2. 2

    Sear the Brisket

    In a large Dutch oven or heavy oven-safe pot, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the brisket and sear it on all sides until browned, about 3-4 minutes per side.

  3. 3

    Add Broth and Cook

    Once seared, pour the beef broth into the pot. Cover with a lid and transfer to the preheated oven. Cook for 4-5 hours, or until the brisket is fork-tender.

  4. 4

    Rest the Brisket

    Remove the brisket from the oven and let it rest for at least 30 minutes before slicing.

Making the Beef Jus

  1. 5

    Collect Drippings

    After removing the brisket, pour the drippings from the pot into a measuring cup, keeping 1 cup for the jus.

  2. 6

    Simmer the Jus

    In a saucepan, combine the beef drippings, beef broth, red wine, and thyme. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally.

  3. 7

    Thicken the Jus

    In a small bowl, mix cornstarch with water to create a slurry. Slowly whisk this into the simmering jus until it thickens to your desired consistency.

  4. 8

    Strain and Serve

    Strain the jus through a fine mesh sieve to remove any solids. Serve warm alongside the sliced brisket.
