Ingredients

Instructions

  • Place the olive oil in the bottom of your slow cooker on a high heat. Allow to warm up for about 10 minutes.
  • Chop and peel your onion and add your onion, grated ginger and garlic puree to the olive oil.
  • Season the slow cooker ingredients with salt and pepper. Then once the onions have cooked for five minutes add the brisket. Give it five minutes on each side so that it is getting a nice coating of the ginger and garlic.
  • Remove the brisket from the slow cooker and set to one side.
  • Pour in the red wine into the slow cooker and mix well.
  • Then add the tinned tomatoes and the herbs and stir well.
  • Place the brisket back in the slow cooker and then cover the sides of the brisket with the celery and carrots.
  • Cook for a further 5.5 hours on a low heat setting.
  • Serve!

Notes

If you would like it to be richer, then I would suggest doubling the red wine and reducing the tinned tomatoes by a third.
 
We have found the best place to source beef brisket to make Slow Cooked French Pot Roast is from ButcherBox. You even receive free bacon and $10 off your first order when you sign up with this link.
 
For the best beef stock in your recipes I would recommend Kettle & Fire. Unfortunately they are not available in the UK so if you are UK based I would use OXO cubes.
