Grandma Macks' Brisket
(Mine has never tasted like hers. She had a special touch.)
Split clove of garlic. Rub it on meat.
Put all these items in pot with meat--
"walnut of brown sugar" (That is the way she wrote it. It means a lump of brown sugar the size of a walnut.)
1 chopped onion
1 or 2 stalks of sliced celery
some green pepper in chunks (I leave out.)
some parsley
pinch of -- marjoram, thyme, basil, allspice
1 or 2 whole cloves -- stick into piece of onion so you can remove before serving
1 bay leaf
1 small can tomato sauce, same can's worth of water
