Notes

Personally, I think it’s faster to do all of the sauteeing on the stove.

** To make this recipe in the slow cooker, sautee onions, peppers, and brisket on the stove. Follow the same method above by sauteeing the onions first, then the peppers, and then the brisket in batches. Slow cook on high for 4 hours.
