I cooked this yesterday and we loved it. Also used a smaller cut of beef so cooked it on low for 9 hours. If you prefer a spicier sauce add 1 to 2 finely choped jalapeno peppers with the garlc. This was a wonderful flavourful sauce and the meat was wonderfully tender. Ingredients:
2 dried new mexico chiles |
2 cups boiling water |
1 tablespoon vegetable oil |
4 lbs double beef brisket, trimmed |
2 onions, thinly sliced |
6 celery ribs, thinly sliced |
1 tablespoon dry mustard |
1 tablespoon dried oregano |
2 teaspoons cumin seeds |
1 tablespoon cracked black peppercorns |
2 teaspoons salt |
1/4 cup all-purpose flour |
2 cups tomato sauce (i used passata) |
1/2 cup condensed beef broth (undiluted) |
1/4 cup red wine vinegar |
1/2 cup packed brown sugar |
4 bay leaves |
2 green bell peppers, thinly sliced |
1/2 cup parsley, finely chopped |
Directions:
1. In a heatproof bowl soak the chilies in boiling water for 30 minutes. Drain, discard the liquid and stems. Pat dry, chop finely and set aside.
2. In a large skillet heat oil and brown the meat on all sides then place in crock pot.
3. Reduce heat of the pan to medium and saute the onions, celery and reserved chili peppers.
4. Add garlic, mustard, oregano, cumin seeds, pepper and salt to the pan and cook, stirring for 1 minute. Sprinkle with flour and cook stirring for 1 minute.
