Hi guys, hope you're well. So we're going to make a beautiful dish, we're going to make Bloody Mary
Beef Brisket. It's all those flavours that you love in a Bloody Mary but just concentrated, roasted.
You can get it down in about 10-15 minutes and then you let it slow cook
throughout the day. Here is the cut of meat, this is the beef brisket. So it's super simple, get yourself
a nice casserole pan on a high heat. We're going to get some olive oil into there, get it turned up.
Let's get some salt and pepper and we want to really rub that in all over the brisket,
plenty of black pepper, that's a really important ingredient so rub that all over. The brisket, you
can get from any butchers, you can ask for it, it should be good value. So into the oil we go.
So as this beef brisket gets some nice colour on it, let's just give it lots of love, turn it around and
I want to get some nice fragrant vegetables prepped up and ready to go so here I've got
some celery, this is going to cook for a nice long amount of time so you don't want to cut the veg
up too small. I'll cut nice red or white onions into quarters once I've peeled them and this is
going to give it a really nice base of flavour. Look at that, getting some colour on that already.
We'll go in with a little bit of bay, I'll go in with some lovely
rosemary here, then we're going to go in with the onions and the celery. So we'll fry these
together for five minutes just to soften it all up and get some lovely colour happening.
Look at that. So it's super simple to put together, brown off the meat, get those chunks of veg in
there and the herbs and then really I'm bringing the two things I love together, a chunk of beef
and a cocktail and this cocktail of course is Bloody Marys. We're going to go in with 750ml
of beautiful passata and then we'll go in with two or three generous shots
of vodka and then a nice swig of port. I'll give it a nice little dash of tabasco, an even nicer
shake of Worcestershire sauce. I quite like to freshen it up with the juice of a lemon
but this time, instead of making its way to a cocktail glass near you, this time
we're going to go into a casserole pan. So we'll mix that up. Interestingly we still want to taste
it for seasoning, so we'll season that with some sea salt but if you look in the pan here
we've got nice colour on this brisket of beef look at that! Absolutely fantastic and then all of these
veggies are starting to soften up and colour, so in we'll go now with the Bloody Mary mix.
I'll clean this out with some water, about 500ml of water is perfect. We'll get the lid on
and now we're going to slow cook that in the oven at 130 degrees Celsius which is 250 Fahrenheit
and we're gonna slow cook all those flavours together. Maybe after like two, two and a half
hours I will pull it out and I'll just turn the meat over, baste it. But that's it, in six hours time
there's gonna be an amazing dinner here and what I will do is serve that with
some lovely greens, cabbages, I'm gonna make some mashed potato. Right, see you in six.
This whole room is full of the most incredible smells and also in that time,
just have a little look at this.
And if i get in here you can see how incredibly tender this is now look at that, yes.
So you can see that it's shiny, it's concentrated, it smells incredible, and then what I've got here
is some lovely greens that I've boiled, drained and I've squeezed dry, and i'm just frying these
now in a little bit of olive oil, salt, and pepper, super simple. Then here I've got mashed
potato, just like you were always taught but, a nice little tip, take some horseradish sauce
into the mash, it works so good. Get two forks and then just go into this brisket and if you have a
little look, I can just literally pull it apart and you get this amazing pulled brisket, so good.
So let's portion some up. Get a nice generous pile of horseradish mash, go in with some lovely
greens, look at those colours guys, and then let's get some of this beautiful brisket.
Look at that and then if we just grab a little bit of that amazing juice
from around the outside and spoon that over the top, look at that. Okay, let's have a little try.
Let's get in there, let's get some of that beautiful beef, horseradish mash.
Gorgeous, deep flavours, sweet tomatoes. I know it's obvious, but it is Bloody Mary beef.
What a treat, that is definitely an incredible winter warmer. Guys what are you waiting for?
It doesn't take hardly any time to put together, go out and have a nice day out and come back
to a beautiful meal like this. Good luck.
