By: Sondra Morrow

Original Recipe Yield 6 servings
 

Ingredients

  • 1 (3 pound) beef brisket*, trimmed and cut in half
  • 1 cup ketchup
  • 1 small onion, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons cider vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon prepared horseradish
  • 1 tablespoon prepared mustard
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper

Directions

  1. Place the brisket in a 3-qt. slow cooker. In a bowl, combine the remaining ingredients. Pour over brisket. Cover and cook on low for 6 hours or until tender.
  2. Remove the beef; set aside. Pour the sauce into a saucepan; cook, uncovered, over low heat for 13-15 minutes or until reduced and thickened, stirring occasionally. Slice the meat across the grain; serve with sauce.

Footnotes

  • This is a fresh beef brisket, not corned beef. The meat comes from the first cut of the brisket.
