  • Place the seared brisket on top of the onions and garlic.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, tomato paste, and dried thyme.
  • Pour the liquid mixture over the brisket.
  • Cover and cook on low for 8-10 hours, or until the brisket is fork-tender.
  • Remove the brisket from the slow cooker and let it rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing against the grain.
  • Serve the sliced brisket with the cooking liquid and vegetables.

Notes

For an even richer flavor, you can add a bay leaf to the slow cooker. This recipe is also great for leftovers and makes excellent sandwiches.
