Wine-Braised Beef Brisket features a slow-cooked cut that turns succulent and fork-tender, bathed in a red wine, tomato, and onion braising liquid that reduces to deep, beefy pan juices. Aromatic thyme and a quick sear build savory complexity, making this a comforting centerpiece for a weekend dinner or holiday table.

1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2

Combine thyme, salt, and black pepper in a small bowl, then rub the mixture over both sides of the brisket.
3

Heat olive oil in a roasting pan over medium-high heat; add the brisket to the hot oil and brown it on both sides, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Remove the brisket from the pan and set it aside.
4

Add the red onion slices to the hot roasting pan and cook, stirring, until the onion is slightly softened, about 2 minutes. Stir in the beef broth, tomato sauce, and wine.
5

Return the brisket to the roasting pan and cover the pan with foil.
6

Roast the brisket in the preheated oven for 1 hour; remove the foil and baste the brisket with the pan juices. Cover the roasting pan again with foil and continue roasting until very tender and the pan sauce has thickened, 1 1/2 to 2 more hours.
