Directions

  1. 1

    Place the brisket in a large pot or Dutch oven and cover completely with water. Add the included spice packet. Cover and bring to a boil, then reduce the heat.

  2. 2

    Simmer for approximately 50 minutes per pound until the meat is tender (about 2 hours and 30 minutes for 3.3 lbs).

  3. 3

    Add the whole potatoes and the peeled, chopped carrots. Continue cooking until the vegetables are almost tender (about 20 minutes).

  4. 4

    Add the cabbage cut into wedges and cook for an additional 15 minutes.

  5. 5

    Remove the meat from the broth and let it rest for 15 minutes before slicing.

💡 Chef's Tip

Save the broth for a flavorful soup base. You can prepare this dish the day before and reheat it gently. Serve with rye bread or crackers.
