Ingredients
- 3 pound first cut brisket
- 1 very large onion, sliced
- 1 1/2 cup red wine
- 1 tablespoon paprika
- Old World Seasoning (or Lawry's seasoned salt)
- English Prime Rib Rub (or Adobo with black pepper)
- 1 can Rokeach Tomato Sauce with Mushrooms (avail. in Kosher foods aisle)

Instructions
Season meat with Old world and Prime Rib rub, on both sides. Brown in a large skillet on top of the stove. Use a bit of oil if the meat is well trimmed. Otherwise, put the meat in fat side down. When meat is browned, remove to a corningware (or similar) baking dish. Add the onions, and cook until translucent. Add the wine and deglaze the skillet. Add the paprika. Mix it all together. Add the tomato sauce and heat until all are combined. Add the bay leaf and thyme. Stir. Pour the onion/sauce mixture over the meat. Cover tightly with foil or lid. Bake in a 300 degree oven for 3 hours. The meat will be falling apart tender. Let rest before slicing, or make it a day ahead, and chill. Slice when cold. Then reheat in the cooking sauce. Arrange on a platter with some of the onions from the pan and the gravy on the side.
