The easiest slow cooker brisket almost as good as my mom made.

Stress Free & Yummy Holiday Brisket – This is a soul warming meal this is perfect for the holidays. Every year on Hanukkah, my whole family would cheer for my mom’s brisket! For years, I have been asking for the recipe, and each year I make the brisket it is never as delicious as Mama Goldstein’s.
So I went on a brisket journey and have made it 1,000 times in the oven, crock pot, and with a prayer (a lot of times LOL). I finally combined my mom’s recipe with my wins in cooking this amazing dish. The best part is you can make this the day before because it tastes even better the next day!
This is great for Hanukkah, Christmas, or a cold snowy night to warm up your soul!

- Next top the brisket with the remaining onion, remaining carrots, mushrooms, and pinch salt and pepper on top of the brisket.
- Now, cover and cook for 6 hours on low.

I believe that avoiding highly processed foods is the first step to lose weight. They will often taste very good, but refined foods currently have very little vitamins and minerals, making you eat more only to have enough power to get through the day. Should you be constantly having these foods, transitioning to grain and other complex carbohydrates will help you have more electricity while taking in less. Thanks alot : ) for your blog post.

I’m excited to try this for an Easter celebration. One question, there’s no liquid in it. When you sat onion soup mix, is that dry or mixed with broth or water?
Hi!! Excited for you to make it! No liquid needed because the beef will let off its own juice. Just sprinkle the dry packet of onion soup mix all over the beef and another all over the veggies! Hope you have a great holiday!
Hi, Jay, Happy Hanukkah! I’ve never made brisket, & have only tasted it at bbq joints. Your recipe sounds delicious. Could you please tell me what a first cut brisket is? I live in SW Ohio, & I don’t know what to look for. Thanks so much! I found you on instagram & love your recipes & instastories. The way you talk about food, you could persuade me to eat shoe leather! Love ya!
Hi Carol!!! You are the best!!!! I am so grateful for your kind words!! First cut just mean the flatter cut of brisket. They cut brisket in 2. This recipe works with either cut. So no worries, just get what they have at your market! You can also ask the butcher at meat counter in the supermarket for first cut. Sooo hope this helps!! You made my day!! With Super Gratitude Jason!
