This recipe is from my friend Meegan. Her Grandma Honeyman used to make this and it was always a big hit at family gatherings. I don’t know if she created this recipe or found it in a cookbook or somewhere else but thank you Nina Honeyman, Meegan’s mother, for keeping track of the recipe!
3 to 4 pounds beef brisket, trimmed of excess fat, rinsed and patted dry
2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
2 teaspoon dried oregano
2 teaspoon dried rosemary
2 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon gluten free seasoned salt
1. Boil Brisket: Put brisket and all seasonings in a heavy pot or dutch oven with a lid. Add approximately 2 inches of water to the pan, making sure not to cover brisket completely. Bring to a boil.
2. Simmer Brisket: Cover pan, reduce heat to medium low and simmer until the brisket is “fall apart” tender, approximately 4 hours. Remove brisket to cutting board and let rest a few minutes.
3. Finish & Serve: Pull apart with a fork. Serve on toasted gluten free buns with au jus* on the side.
* To make the au jus, skim fat from cooking liquid and bring to a boil. Season with salt, if needed. Serve hot as a dipping sauce for the sandwich.
