Hi everyone...I was just wondering if you could help me...I have bought a 1.5 kg piece of brisket...I have a slow cooker...low/medium/high settings...what seing do I cook it on and for how long?...also do I put it in on it's own or do I put stuff with it...any help would be gratefully received...thanks

I would do a pot roast with stock and veggies, put it on medium and leave it for 8 hours or so. I'd serve it with mashed potatoes to mop up the lovely gravy.

Hi taxi,

I'd do it exactly as newleaf says and it will be delicious. Sometimes I add a bit of worcester sauce, black pepper and a bayleaf for extra flavour.

The replies on these older threads may give you more ideas too:

what can I do with Brisket?

What would you do with a 1.85KG Beef Brisket in a slow cooker?

I think the last 1.5kg one I did I cooked for 5/6 hours on low then and hour on medium. I usually use a stock aswell, sometimes with a bottle of ale/stout, a few veg but not mushrooms until last as they went funny but tend to wrap in foil before I put it in, something I've always done.

Thankyou for those ideas and I'll have a look at those other threads..
