Of course, the most popular entrées served at the Easter meal are ham and lamb. You can certainly opt for tradition and make lamb loins.

But ham and lamb aren’t the only main dishes to choose from for the holiday. Beef brisket is also worthy of a spot on your Easter dinner table.

Easter is a holiday that celebrates new beginnings, as it occurs during springtime, a season that signifies a fresh start.

So if you hate ham and want to try something new this year, set your sights on a brisket roasted in the oven.

Beef brisket is both a homey comfort food and a picture of sophistication so it will be a stunning centerpiece for the holiday feast.

TikToker Jason (@chophappy) is sharing his mother’s secret recipe for an Easter brisket. Jason has fond memories of growing up as a little kid in New Jersey, and this brisket is at the core of his remembrances.

When Easter came around, he would always be woken by a pleasant beefy and garlicky smell permeating the house.

And Jason and his siblings would often sneak a piece before the guests arrived because it was just that irresistible!

The secret to his mother’s fall-apart tender brisket is to tuck the meat into a massive heap of caramelized onions and onion soup mix. Who knew?

Here’s what you need to cook a successful brisket. Keep reading for the list of ingredients below.

Ingredients:

  • 3 pounds of brisket
  • 2 packages of onion soup mix
  • 1 tablespoon of salt and pepper
  • 3 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar
  • 3 pounds of onions
  • 2 carrots
  • 3 chopped celery stalks
  • 2 pounds of Yukon potatoes
  • 1 can of beef broth
  • 1 handful of chopped parsley

You’ll want to throw the potatoes, chopped celery, and carrots into a large baking dish. Next, sprinkle in the soup mix and massage it into the vegetables.

Set the cut of meat in the middle of the dish and add salt, pepper, and garlic to it. Flip the brisket over and season the other side. Then, layer the onions on top, cover the dish with tin foil, and put it in the oven for six hours at 300 degrees Fahrenheit. Enjoy your beef brisket dinner!
