Easy Dutch Oven Sweet and Sour Brisket
"How could something so easy be so good, this is a no-fail, no-fuss recipe!...I made this recently with potato pancakes on the side, the brisket turned out simply fabulous, it was melt-in-your-mouth tender! I am going to try this with a regular pot roast also soon."
