Steps:
- Season the brisket all over with salt and pepper. Heat the vegetable oil in a frying pan (or use the sear function on your slow cooker) and sear the meat all over until browned. Transfer to a plate. Add another drizzle of oil, if needed, and fry the onions with a pinch of salt until lightly golden, about 12 mins. Sprinkle over the flour, stir until well-mixed, then pour in the ale and scrape the bottom of the pan to pick up any browned bits. Tip everything into the slow cooker (if using a frying pan).
- Add the yeast or beef extract, sugar and vinegar, then the beef and herbs. Top up with stock until the brisket is just over half submerged. Cover and cook for 7-8 hrs on low until tender. Remove the meat from the slow cooker and cover to keep warm. Use the reduce or simmer function on your slow cooker and simmer for 10-15 mins until the gravy has thickened to your liking. If your slow cooker doesn't have a simmer function, pour the gravy into a pan and simmer on the hob until thickened. Add a pinch more salt, sugar or a dash more vinegar if needed. If you like your gravy to be extra-thick, mix the cornflour with a splash of cold water, then add to the pan and bubble for a few minutes.
- Just before you remove the meat from the slow cooker, start on the mash. Cook the potatoes in a pan of boiling salted water for 20 mins until very tender when pressed. Drain and steam-dry for a few minutes before mashing with the horseradish, butter and crème fraîche. Scatter with parsley to serve. Cut the brisket into wedges and serve with the gravy and mash.

Tips:
- Choose the right piece of brisket: Look for a brisket flat or point that is evenly marbled with fat. This will help ensure that the meat is tender and flavorful.
- Season the brisket generously: Use a combination of salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and smoked paprika to create a flavorful crust on the brisket.
- Sear the brisket before roasting: This will help to develop a rich flavor and color.
- Braise the brisket in a flavorful liquid: Use a combination of beef broth, red wine, and Worcestershire sauce to create a flavorful braising liquid.
- Cook the brisket low and slow: The best way to achieve tender, fall-apart brisket is to cook it low and slow. Aim for a temperature of 200-225 degrees Fahrenheit and cook the brisket for at least 8 hours.
- Let the brisket rest before slicing: Once the brisket is cooked, let it rest for at least 30 minutes before slicing. This will help the juices redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in more tender and flavorful brisket.
Conclusion:
Slow-baked beef brisket is a classic dish that is perfect for a special occasion or a casual family meal. By following these tips, you can create a tender, flavorful brisket that will impress your guests. Serve the brisket with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or coleslaw.
