This is a beef brisket roast slathered in a garlic-packed mustard marinade, then slow cooked to juicy, shreddy glory in the oven. It’s bold, it’s beefy, and it smells like comfort and victory.

Cast iron casserole

Ingredients

2 kg (4 ½ lb) beef brisket, see note 1
100 g (½ cups) wholegrain mustard
100 g (½ cups) dijon mustard
1 head garlic, crushed
50 g (¼ cups) brown sugar
120 ml (½ cups) water, or stock, or wine
salt and pepper , to taste

Instructions

Prepare brisket

In a bowl, mix together equal parts 100 g (½ cups) wholegrain mustard and 100 g (½ cups) dijon mustard, 50 g (¼ cups) brown sugar with 1 head garlic, salt and pepper .
Slather the mariande all over the 2 kg (4 ½ lb) beef brisket.
Cover and chill for at least 1 hour—or overnight if you're planning ahead. The longer it sits, the better it tastes. If storing overnight in the fridge, remove at least 30 minutes before cooking.

Cook brisket

Preheat your oven to 100°C (210°F).
Before roasting, pour about 120 ml (½ cups) water to the base.
Pop the lid on your cast iron dish and slide it into the oven. Let it roast for 8–10 hours. It should reach about 90°C (195°F).
Let it rest, lid on, for 15–20 minutes before slicing or shredding. Spoon those pan juices all over the top.
