Brisket

This was a yummy dinner I made on Sunday. We hardly ever treat ourselves to meat except an occasional roast. I decided to try Brisket when I found this simple recipe. It is kind of pricey and I had to go to 2 supermarkets to find it (Albertsons was out but Vons had some). The kids liked it too.

Marinated Brisket

In a 9x13 pan add:
2-3 lbs. Beef Brisket
1 bottle of Liquid Smoke
¼ Cup Worcestershire Sauce
A dash of garlic, onion and celery salt

Marinate overnight, cover with foil

Bake covered at 400 for ½ hour, then at 275 for 4-5 hours. 1 hour before end, pour on 1 small bottle of BBQ sauce.


Mashed Potatoes
Red potatoes, washed and diced (leave skin on)
Milk
Butter
Cheddar cheese
Green onion
Fresh minced garlic
Salt and pepper

Boil potatoes until very soft. Drain and return to pot. Add a dash of milk and a few Tbsp. butter and mash potatoes. Add more milk and butter if needed to make creamy. Before completely mashed, add remaining ingredients until blended.

Fresh Green Beans
Cut off ends of beans; blanch in boiling water for 3 minutes or until desired tenderness. Toss with butter or oil olive and salt and pepper. Lemon Pepper and garlic salt are also good.
