Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat oven to 325°F. Pat dry 3 pounds of beef brisket and rub evenly with 2 teaspoons kosher salt, 1 teaspoon black pepper, and 6 minced garlic cloves.
- Step 2: In a large oven-safe roasting pan, heat 3 tablespoons olive oil over medium heat. Add 1 large sliced yellow onion and sauté for 5 minutes until softened.
- Step 3: Place the seasoned brisket on top of the onions, tuck 3 fresh rosemary sprigs around the meat, and pour 1 cup beef broth into the pan.
- Step 4: Cover the pan tightly with aluminum foil and roast in the preheated oven for 3 to 3.5 hours, or until the brisket is fork-tender and easily pulls apart.
- Step 5: Remove from oven, let rest covered for 15 minutes, then slice thinly against the grain. Serve with pan juices and onions.
