Slow cook Roast Brisket in white whine

I am thinking of German, English, French, American, Fusion. 
The wine that I add to it, it remains me of coq ou vin  pretty much chicken in red wine (white wine) with garlic.
I used to live in Grenoble France for 2 years. 
I will start with :




4 Lbs store bought corn beef (beef brisket)
2 sweet Onion cut in 1/4
4 Sweet carrots (clean and peel)
4 Stem of spring onion, clean (cut in 1/3)
1Tsp whole coriander
4 Clove of whole garlic, 
1 Pinch of salt, pepper, sugar
4 Cup white wine
2 Tbs of butter
2 Tbs of bacon grease/ olive oil/ veggie oil 
2 Box of store bought chicken stock (enough to submerse the veggie underneath the brisket) 


Then place all the veggies and garlic, coriander, salt and pepper, sugar, in the bottom of slow cooker, add the chicken broth, and wine at the same times.
Meanwhile, heat the oil/bacon grease on high, place the brisket fat side down until brown and turn around approx 10 minutes to brown all around the meat.
Place the meat in the slow cooker on top of it, add the excess oil in to the meat. Then cook for 5-6 hour.


Strain the veggies ( set it a side),   add and whisk it slowly  1/2 cup of flour, then 1 Tbs of butter to it, it will change the to a silky shiny gravy color. 


I serve with store bought sauerkraut, and pan fried potato (which I will show you on the next recipe) worth of try....


This dish is convenient for busy person who want to make big  dinner....when you comeback, dinner is ready 
Don't worry about left over, i will show you how to make sandwiches out of left over, or many of you are already know.
