This weekend I made a beef brisket for my brother and I.
I bought a 6qt-Cuisinart dutch oven a week ago, and bought all the ingredients the morning of, and I picked up the 3 lb point cut the night before.
I subbed a sweet red wine in for the dry wine, and I just used regular thyme instead of the "4 sprigs of thyme" that the recipe asked for. And.. voila! Yummy!
So far so good.. and I haven't touched video games for 2 weeks. 🙂
