Ingredients

• 4 pounds beef brisket
• 2 cups orange juice
• 1 cup low-sodium beef broth
• 0.25 cup soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons honey
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 4 garlic cloves, minced
• 1 onion, thinly sliced
• 1 teaspoon orange zest
• 1 teaspoon ground paprika
• 1 teaspoon dried thyme
• 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 1 teaspoon kosher salt
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C).

Step 2

Pat the beef brisket dry with paper towels and season it generously with kosher salt and ground black pepper.

Step 3

In a large Dutch oven or oven-safe pot, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Sear the brisket on both sides until browned, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove the brisket and set it aside.

Step 4

In the same pot, add the sliced onion and minced garlic. Sauté for 2-3 minutes until fragrant and slightly softened.

Step 5

Stir in the paprika, dried thyme, and orange zest, allowing the spices to toast for 30 seconds.

Step 6

Pour in the orange juice, beef broth, soy sauce, and honey, scraping the bottom of the pot to deglaze and lift any browned bits.

Step 7

Return the seared brisket to the pot, ensuring it is partially submerged in the liquid. Bring the liquid to a gentle simmer.

Step 8

Cover the pot with a lid or aluminum foil and transfer it to the preheated oven.

Step 9

Roast the brisket for 3-3.5 hours, basting it with the juices every hour. The brisket is done when it is fork-tender.

Step 10

Remove the pot from the oven and let the brisket rest in the juices for 15-20 minutes before slicing.

Step 11

Slice the brisket against the grain into thin slices. Serve with the pan juices spooned over the top and a sprinkle of fresh parsley for garnish.
