Several years ago I started what has come to be known as the GREAT BRISKET BAKE-OFF. Like many things gastronomically Jewish, this event centers around a holiday, Chanukah. Why brisket? Why not?
And so, a tradition was born. Except for 2 years ago when we ran out of brisket, there's always been plenty of food. the problem was, people cooked a 2-3 lb. brisket -- for those of you veteran brisket makers, you know that after shrinkage, a brisket that size barely feeds 4 people. So if you're making a brisket, make a big one!
And if you don't want to make a brisket, we can always use other items -- latkes, kasha, stuffed cabbage, salads, drinks, desserts, vegetables-- in other words, anything you'd bring to a pot luck.
Start celebrating Chanukah early and come to the GBBO! Starts at 6:00
