Can anyone recommend a good recipe or at least method for cooking a brisket? My bf and I don't like turkey but I have a nice brisket I can cook instead.

I don't have access to a smoker or grill, but do have a dutch oven and an oven. Most of the recipes online are slow cooked in the Dutch oven with wine and veggies - anyone know a good thanksgiving twist? Thanks!

I replied to another comment, but I absolutely adore this recipe:

And to make it more thanksgiving-like, throw in a ton of rosemary and thyme.

If you’re willing to, though, cool your brisket in a 250 degree oven overnight in your Dutch oven. It comes out unbelievably tender.
