   • Begin by trimming any excess fat from the beef brisket. This helps ensure a leaner end result.

2. Soak Brisket:

   • Place the brisket in a large container and cover it with water. Let it soak for 30 minutes. This step helps tenderize the meat.

3. Drain:

   • After soaking, drain the water from the brisket and pat it dry with paper towels.

4. Season Brisket:

   • Sprinkle kosher salt evenly over the brisket and allow it to sit for another 30 minutes. This helps enhance the flavor of the meat.

5. Rinse:

   • Rinse the brisket thoroughly under cold water to remove excess salt.

6. Braise Brisket:

   • Heat olive oil in a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the brisket and brown it on all sides, about 8 minutes per side.

7. Add Onions:

   • Reduce the heat to medium and add sliced onions to the skillet. Continue cooking until the onions are caramelized and golden brown.

8. Add Garlic:

   • Add minced garlic to the skillet and cook for an additional minute, stirring constantly.

9. Remove Meat:

   • Once the onions and garlic are fragrant and tender, remove the brisket from the skillet and set it aside.

10. Prepare Sauce:

    • In the same skillet, combine ketchup, water, brown sugar, red wine vinegar, black pepper, and red chili powder. Stir well to combine all the ingredients.

11. Simmer Brisket:

    • Return the brisket to the skillet, making sure it’s fully submerged in the sauce. Cover the skillet and simmer over low heat for approximately 3 hours, or until the meat is tender and easily pulls apart.

12. Reduce Sauce:

    • Once the brisket is cooked to perfection, remove it from the skillet and set it aside to rest. Increase the heat to medium-high and simmer the sauce uncovered until it thickens and reduces to your desired consistency.

13. Serve:

    • Slice the brisket against the grain and serve it with the delicious sauce spooned over the top. Enjoy your mouthwatering masterpiece!

Tips:

• For an extra kick of flavor, try adding a splash of Worcestershire sauce or hot sauce to the sauce mixture.
• Serve the brisket alongside mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or your favorite side dishes for a complete meal.
• Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or frozen for longer-term storage.
