Slow cooker on low all day with onions and stock.

As above but with guineas and some carrot.

Caramelise onions carrots and celery place in slow cooker add brisket with beef stock and cook until tender. Take out meat when done and leave to cool between two plates with a weight on - this can be done up to 24 hours in advance. Strain stock and use some for gravy the rest freezers well. When brisket is cooled spread a mixture of marmite thinned with a little hot water over the meat and pop in the air fryer on roast or a very hot oven 225C for 15 minutes to crisp up the outside.

I've never tried the marmite, I will bear that in mind for next time. I usually cook mine in the gravy left over from previous beef stews (from the freezer), slow cooked. I sometimes add a glass of wine or ale.

Barry I'm a big fan or home made stock. Have you tried really reducing down the stock and storing in large ice cube trays? I do that then if we want a sauce with a steak its easy just to take out a small portion. Crisping up the brisket gives it extra flavour but you don't need the marmite you could just use some beef dripping or a bit of butter.

I agree, I make a lot of stock, always have done.

I got a brisket of beef out of the freezer for tomorrow night. I was just going to slow cook it in it's own juices, but I like AuntPoll's idea. It won't fit in the slow cooker so I'll have to put it in the oven instead.

Thank you.
