I don't normally add veg with my brisket. I find I like to use a liquid which makes the meat take on flavour, but the liquid is to runny to use but can be turned into gravy by being reduced. Maybe you want to make a stew???

For Brisket I use Knorr Stock Pot Beef Stock, Red Wine, paprika, worchestershire sauce and carroway seeds (to add a nutty flavour to the meat)

For a Stew I would use Beef Stock and Tomatoes, and season.

I would add any veg I wanted.

I hope this helps!

I put brisket, potatoes, carrots, onions and any sort of stock in my slow cooker. It falls to pieces, i usually thicken the liquid after taking out the veg. It's more of a stew really but it's lovely !

As this has fallen from the front page of OS, I'll add it to the existing thread to keep ideas together

My parents are coming over for tea on Sunday night. I have decided to make banoffe pie for pudding (and can make that on Saturday). I am still looking for inspiration about what I can do for mains. Part of me wants to do something I can make beforehand and heat up.

Was thinking of possibly doing roast beef. I have never cooked with brisket before, and have been told it is very tender. How would I cook it in the slow cooker and for how long?

Brisket can be tender but it needs a long, slow cook rather than roasting. I'd brown the meat in a normal pan first before putting it in the slow-cooker with a pint of stock and your veggies. Cook it for as long as you like. The longer the better really.

Hi CAT,

We have an existing thread on cooking brisket in a slow cooker that should help so I've added your thread to it to keep the advice in one place.

I see it's on offer at Tesco at the moment - what can I do with it? I have a slow cooker.

Thanks.
