Old World Beef Brisket
Old World Beef Brisket in Saurkraut & Onion Gravy*
(this is a 150 year or older family recipe) 4 cups home made saurkraut (juice and all) or store bought....if you must! 1 bulb of garlic (peeled and mashed) 3 tbsp fresh cracked black pepper 1tsp Juniper berries mashed 1 handful of crushed Thyme 6 bay leaves 1/2 cup each Appels , Onioins , Celery ,Carrots 1 cup dry red wine Mix the above in a tub , or large bowl. 1 Beef brisket 16 oz bacon (fried & grease reserved) 6-8 peeled large chunk potatoes (new potatoes are great) Marinate the Beef brisket for at least 24 hours in the mixture , 72 hours is better , if you have a crock and can keep it cold. After the marination period , you will remove the beef brisket , strain the the liquid from the kraut (saving 2 cups) . Sear off the beef brisket till browned on all sides in the bacon grease, and set aside. In a large covered casserole or baking dish , layer with kraut mix , potatoes, beef brisket and crumble the bacon on top , add the remaining liquid , cover , and bake for one (1) and quarter(1/4) hours , or till meat is tender * Onion gravy . I am sure everyone knows a good onion gravy recipe(s) . we remove the potatoes , and use the gravy over them , after we fork mash them on the plate. Bread and butter are usually served as well . Grandma used to make her own kraut , and this one of the ways she would make it when brisket was cheap to buy, and would feed the lot of our family. When ones family is both German , and English , and Native American...Cooking for large groups is what we do . I gave off the top of my head amounts , adjust the amounts to your taste really , I was always a kid in the kitchen with grandma.....and I don't measure anymore.
