Description

This comforting Crockpot Brisket dish delivers fall-apart tender meat infused with earthy marjoram and savory cooking juices. The combination of rich brisket, crisp-tender green beans, and soft potatoes creates a satisfying one-pot meal that is perfect for busy weeknights or family gatherings. The slow-cooking method allows the flavors to meld beautifully, resulting in a natural, unthickened gravy that is light yet flavorful. Serve this rustic French-inspired main straight from the pot for a wholesome, home-style dinner that requires minimal effort but yields maximum comfort. It is an excellent recipe for using up pantry staples while creating a restaurant-quality experience at home.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Trim excess fat from the brisket if necessary, then season generously with salt and pepper to taste.
  2. Place the seasoned brisket into the bottom of a large slow cooker.
  3. Arrange the peeled and quartered potatoes around the brisket.
  4. Add the trimmed green beans on top of or around the meat and potatoes.
  5. Sprinkle the crumbled marjoram evenly over the vegetables and meat.
  6. Add enough water to the slow cooker to just cover the ingredients, approximately 2 cups.
  7. Cover the slow cooker and cook on Low setting for 8 to 10 hours, or until the brisket is fork-tender.
  8. Remove the brisket from the slow cooker and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
  9. Slice the brisket thinly on the diagonal against the grain.
  10. Serve the sliced beef alongside the green beans and potatoes, spooning the natural cooking liquid over everything.
  11. Do not thicken the gravy, as the natural juices provide a lovely, light flavor.
