Ingredients

¼ cup 56g avocado oil
50 grams white onion finely chopped
2 teaspoons 10g minced garlic
3 pounds fat-trimmed beef brisket
2 teaspoons ground thyme
¾ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon black pepper
1 ½ cup 367g beef broth
2 tablespoons 30 mL apple cider vinegar
16 ounces fresh mushrooms sliced
¾ cup 180g sour cream
¼ cup 60g mayonnaise
1 ½ teaspoon xanthan gum

Instructions

Cutting against the grain, chop the beef into ½” pieces.
To a large saucepan over medium heat, add avocado oil, chopped onion, and minced garlic. Sauté until onion and garlic are fragrant, about 3 minutes. Add chopped beef, thyme, salt, and pepper and sauté until beef is cooked throughout, about 8 minutes, stirring frequently to brown each side of beef.
Decrease stovetop heat to medium-low and pour in beef broth and vinegar into a saucepan. Simmer mixture uncovered for 30 minutes.
Stir in mushrooms, cover the pan with lid, and simmer for additional 1 hour, 30 minutes.
Remove pan from heat and stir in sour cream and mayonnaise until thoroughly incorporated. In ¼ tsp increments, stir in xanthan gum until liquid thickens. Return lid to the pan and allow the pan to sit covered for 10 minutes before serving in bowls.
