L’shana tova! Happiest of new years to you! A little late to this rosh hashanah party, but that seems to be my life these days. My apologies! I still wish you a sweet and happy new year.

Not the prettiest dish I have ever served, but incredibly delicious and tender. And the perfect balance of salty and sweet. I love brisket and don’t make it enough. And I don’t know why, it’s so easy. Sure, it takes a long time to make – but it is hands off time. You do need to start this the morning before you want to serve it. Which makes it perfect to get it going while you are making dinner one night, (a little bit extra work is just fine with me, especially when I know that it means nothing to do for dinner the next night) and finish it up when you are ready to serve it. I like to serve this with roasted potatoes and some greens.
