Pressure Cooked Brisket
Ingredients:
1 pork brisket, cut into 5-6 pieces
3 cloves of garlic, smashed
1 red onion, large dice
2 ribs of celery, large dice
3 carrots, large dice
2 purple sweet potato, large dice or potatoes of your choice
3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
2 cups red wine
1/2 cups orange juice
3 cups water
1 tablespoon beef bouillon
7 juniper berries
2 bay leaves
salt and pepper
oil for searing, avocado works nicely
cold butter for finishing sauce
fresh herbs, chopped for finishing the dish
Instructions:
- Season cut brisket pieces liberally with salt and pepper. In a heavy gauged searing pan, add seasoned brisket pieces and sear on all sides or until caramel brown in color. Reserve.
- Heat crock pot to slow cook setting for 4 hours.
- Add brisket first to crock pot and then add all other ingredients.
- Seal crock pot and cook this for 4 hours.
- When the 4 hours are complete, open crock pot top and remove the meat first. Next separate the vegetables from the liquid. Add the liquid into a sauce pot with half the onion, celery and carrot pieces that were reserved.
- Reduce liquid until it coats the back of a spoon. Next add cold butter pats and swirl around to emulsify. Now it is time to add the brisket back into the sauce and finish with chopped fresh herbs. I like rosemary or chives.
- Serve heated brisket pieces over buttery mashed potatoes or simply with the braised vegetables.
