Easy French Onion Beef Brisket

French Onion Beef Brisket is the perfect winter comfort food after a long day on the road.

Nothing fills the belly better than tender, melt in your mouth beef brisket, crisp baby carrots and redskin potatoes.

This meal is a snap to throw together. Just stick it in the oven and forget about it.

There are so many cuts of beef that can be use for pot roast but beef brisket is a no-fail version. Typically beef brisket comes in a large slab.

Have the butcher cut down the amount you’ll need. My local grocery carries smaller cuts, perfect for a family meal.

The key to this tender french onion beef brisket is aluminum foil and plenty of beef broth in the pan.

A tight seal helps create a Dutch oven effect which retains the heat and leads to a very tender roast.
