Beer Braised Brisket

This recipe produces a most tender brisket with a sauce that is even better than the brisket. Keeps for a couple of days. For reheating, slice the brisket thinly and put into a frying pan, cover with sauce and reheat gently until brisket is warm.

Use an immersion blender, or a Vitamix, to blend all remaining pan ingredients into a gravy. Gravy will have a slightly thickened quality to it. slice the meat and pour the sauce over it. 2.
