Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat oven to 300°F. Rub 3 lbs beef brisket all over with 3 tbsp olive oil, 1 1/2 tsp salt, 1 tsp black pepper, and 4 minced garlic cloves. Place in a roasting pan.
- Step 2: In a small bowl, combine 1 large peeled and finely chopped apple, 1/2 cup red wine, 2 tbsp red wine vinegar, 1/4 cup chopped walnuts, 2 tbsp honey, 1 tsp ground cinnamon, and 1/2 tsp ground ginger. Stir to form the charoset glaze.
- Step 3: Pour half of the charoset glaze over the brisket, reserving the rest. Cover the roasting pan tightly with foil and roast for 3 hours.
- Step 4: Remove foil, baste brisket with remaining glaze, and roast uncovered for an additional 30 minutes until the brisket is tender and the glaze is caramelized on top.
- Step 5: Let brisket rest for 15 minutes before slicing thinly against the grain. Serve with pan juices and extra charoset glaze on the side.
