Slow Cooker Red Wine Beef Brisket

Tender beef brisket braised slowly in a rich red wine and onion gravy. The long cooking time breaks down the connective tissue, resulting in melt-in-your-mouth meat. Flavored with garlic, Worcestershire sauce, and beef broth for deep umami notes. Served with the savory au jus, it’s a show-stopping meal for holidays or Sunday dinners.
