Beef Brisket or Lamb Shoulder 

A slow roasted 100% grass fed  Brisket or a lamb shoulder, both cuts of meat is the way to go for Easter, Passover or April Sunday meal!

Directions

Heat oven to 325 degrees. Combine ginger, turmeric, cinnamon, and raz el hanout with the salt and pepper. Rub the mixture all over the lamb shoulder or brisket.

Arrange the red onion rounds in a single layer in a roasting pan or large baking dish that can fit the brisket and drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil.

Heat the 3 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-low in a very large Dutch oven to hold the brisket. Cook the meat until lightly seared for 5 minutes on both sides. 

Sprinkle the onions, garlic, carrots, celery, tomatoes and stock and bay leaves and thyme.  Raise the heat to medium and allow it top simmer. Cover the pan and place Bake until a fork slides into the meat  with only a little resistance, about 3½ hours. NOTE: It could be 2.5 hours if you have a smaller piece of meat.

To serve right away, transfer the brisket to a cutting board and cut across the grain into thin slices. Transfer to a serving platter. Blend the vegetables and the juices in a blender and serve with the meat. 

Slice the preserved lemon in thin slices and top the meat with the lemon!

NOTE MAKE AHEAD: To make ahead, cool the meat, then cover tightly and refrigerate for up to 2 days. Reheat and serve.
