This simple, slow-cooked brisket comes from illustrator Matt Lubchansky’s grandmother, and requires just three ingredients—one of which is an entire bottle of ketchup. Featured in Recipe Comix: A Brisket with Secret Sauce.
Ingredients
- 1 (3-4 lb.) beef brisket
- 2 yellow onions, thinly sliced
- 3 cups ketchup
