“I use this recipe when I go to winter potlucks and want something everyone will love. Though I have seen kids who scrape away the mushrooms and onion, they still rave about how the meat tastes and gobble it right up.” —Aysha Schurman, Ammon, Idaho

This was awesome! Just a suggestion: I took the leftover brisket & shredded it. Over medium heat in a dutch oven, I cooked a 1/4 cup of diced green pepper & 1/4 cup of diced onion in a tablespoon of butter until tender. Reduce heat & add the shredded meat & stir until heated. Add four slices of provel cheese, & mix until melted in the meat mixture. Serve on hoagie rolls. YUM!

@anneej01: NO! Corned beef is a cured meat and has an entirely different taste from a "non-corned" brisket. You could probably adapt this recipe for another cut of beef if you can find the one indicated.

Overall a very good recipe.... I didn't have the french onion soup; or a packet of onion soup mix.... so it was a little bland. But next time I make it I will make sure to have those items on hand!! We enjoyed it; along with our black-eyed peas!! Happy New Year!

I know the recipe says fresh brisket, but can I use a corned brisket instead? What's the difference?

This turned out quite nicely. I had to use a smaller flank steak instead of brisket, so it was pretty lean. Still, it was nice and tender. I did reduce the cooking time to 6 hours given the smaller cut of beef. I also used beef broth, but think the wine would give it even more flavor. This will become a regular dish around here.
