Wine And Pomegranate Brisket Recipe
Did you think I wasn’t going to post a new brisket recipe for Rosh Hashanah? Come on! I live for brisket – coming up with a new way to make is second nature to me. Although I was introduced to this cut of meat in the last few years, I’ve grown in love the flavor, texture and delicious sauce.
I know I say this a lot, but believe me, this Wine And Pomegranate Brisket Recipe has got to be my favorite one of all. The sauce is savory and sweet at the same time with a deep meaty flavor that is so delicious to describe. The meat is fork tender, no knife required. I serve it with tons of caramelized onions that are roasted alongside the meat for another dimension of sweetness.
During Rosh Hashanah we eat Pomegranates because they symbolize abundance for the New Year. I love eating the little seeds but also love the juice they sell at the Supermarket. The liquid combined with the wine create a delicious explosion of flavor in your mouth. I also added some honey to the sauce to sweeten the New Year. So basically, you need to make this brisket recipe. It will give you good luck.
One of my popular dishes in this blog is my Jalapeno Brisket. I make it for every Jewish Holiday and is very loved by my family. I am sure that they will love this brisket recipe too when they try it Sunday night.
Making it is very easy, you can make it a few days before and you can also freeze it. The trick is to refrigerate the sauce in a small container and the meat wrapped in plastic and aluminum foil. When ready to serve, place the sliced beef in a baking dish, pour in the sauce on top and roast at 350 for about 20 minutes or until bubbling.
