Ingredients for Beef Brisket With Horseradish Sauce

  • Beef Brisket
  • Seasoning Salt
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup chili sauce
  • 1/4 cup ketchup
  • Prepared Horseradish
  • 1 cup boiling water

How to Make Beef Brisket With Horseradish Sauce

  1. Pat a 3-4 lb beef brisket dry with paper towels. Sprinkle generously with 2 tsp seasoned salt.
  2. Dredge the brisket in 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, ensuring even coating.
  3. Place the brisket on a rack in a roasting pan. Roast at 450°F (232°C) for 30 minutes.
  4. In a medium bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup chili sauce, 1/4 cup ketchup, and 2 tablespoons prepared horseradish. Add 1 tablespoon of Worcestershire sauce for extra depth.
  5. Spoon the horseradish mixture evenly over the brisket.
  6. Pour 1 cup of boiling water into the bottom of the roasting pan.
  7. Cover the roasting pan tightly with a lid or aluminum foil.
  8. Reduce the oven temperature to 325°F (163°C).
  9. Return the roasting pan to the oven and continue cooking for approximately 2.5-3 hours, or until the brisket is fork-tender.
  10. Remove the brisket from the oven and let it rest for at least 15 minutes before slicing. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful brisket.
  11. (Optional) For a richer gravy, skim off excess fat from the cooking liquid. Whisk 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour into 1/4 cup of cold water to create a slurry. Gradually whisk the slurry into the cooking liquid, simmering until thickened to your desired consistency.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
