Suggestions
To braise brisket, slowly brown 2-1/2 to 3-1/2 pound boneless beef brisket, flat cut, in small amount of oil in stockpot over medium heat. Pour off drippings. Season brisket with herbs or spices, as desired. Add 1/2 to 2 cups liquid (such as water, broth, beer, wine); bring to boil. Reduce heat; cover tightly and simmer 2-1/2 to 3 hours or until brisket is fork-tender. Carve brisket diagonally across the grain into thin slices.
