My Best Brisket

Brisket was a dish I became familiar with after I was married.  My Sephardic mother never served this ultimate pot roast when I was growing up.  I loved brisket the first time I tasted it.  The juicy, melt in your mouth, savory-sweet meat is an easy dish to make for everything from Shabbat and holiday dinners to tailgate parties for the team.   I reworked all the old recipes I had,  and with the addition of dried porcini mushrooms, slowly caramelized onions, and red wine it is delicious.  The leftovers make great beef au jus sandwiches.
