With the Thanksgiving and Christmas season approaching, this is a wonderful time to be planning and preparing delicious meals for family and friends...and even strangers. Our last few posts have been on the topic of true Biblical hospitality and our prayer, as women, can be that God would make us to be women who are quick to open our homes and share Biblical hospitality to others, so that the love of Christ can be seen and experienced in practical ways. It doesn't always mean sharing meals with others, but that can be one way to love others.
Recently, the women of our church were blessed to enjoy some delicious foods made by Diane Nichols at the Fall Women's Conference. She has been so kind to share those recipes with us. Maybe these recipes can inspire you to show loving hospitality to others in the weeks ahead.
French Onion Beef Brisket Sandwiches:
1 tablespoon LAND O LAKES® Butter
1 2- to 3-pound) beef brisket
3 large (about 3 cups) onions, halved, sliced
1/4 cup apple juice
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1 (10.5-ounce) can condensed beef consommé
1 tablespoon firmly packed brown sugar
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
1 teaspoon salt
10 Kaiser rolls
10 (3/4-ounce) slices LAND O LAKES® Deli Swiss Cheese
Heat oven to 325°F. Melt butter in 12-inch skillet until sizzling; place brisket in skillet. Cook over medium-high heat, turning once, until browned (8 to 10 minutes).
Meanwhile, combine all remaining ingredients except rolls and cheese in 13x9-inch baking pan. Place browned brisket over onion mixture; cover tightly with aluminum foil. Bake for 2 1/2 to 3 hours or until meat is fork tender and internal temperature reaches 170°F.
Place brisket onto cutting board; trim fat. Slice brisket across grain into thin slices; place beef slices onto bottom of Kaiser rolls. Top each with onion mixture, cheese and bun tops. Spoon pan juices into cups for dipping. This recipe serves 10 people.
Recipe Tip
Cook and slice brisket the day before you intend to serve it. To reheat, cover tightly with aluminum foil and heat in 350°F. oven until hot (30 to 35 minutes). Or place in microwave-safe dish. Cover with plastic food wrap; microwave on HIGH (100% power), stirring occasionally, for 3 to 5 minutes or until heated through.
