  • 4 tablespoons olive oil, divided
  • 10 garlic cloves
  • 2 cups hot coffee

  • 1/2 cup dry red wine

Directions

  1. 1
    Preheat oven to 300°. Season brisket with salt; let sit at room temperature for 1 hour.

    Meanwhile, place ancho chile in a small bowl. Cover with hot water; let stand to soften, about 30 minutes. Drain, reserving soaking liquid. Stem, seed, and mince chile.
  3. 3
    Place flour in a 13x9x2-inch baking dish. Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. When oil begins to smoke, dredge 1 piece of brisket in flour; shake off excess. Add to skillet and cook until deep golden brown, about 4 minutes per side. Place fat side up in a large deep roasting pan. Repeat with remaining 2 tablespoons oil and brisket.

  5. 5
    Braise brisket until tender, about 3 hours. Uncover and let cool slightly. Chill until cold, then cover and chill overnight. DO AHEAD Brisket can be made 3 days ahead. Keep chilled.
  6. 6
    Discard fat from surface of braising liquid. Transfer brisket to a cutting board and thinly slice against the grain. Return brisket to roasting pan. Set pan over 2 burners at medium heat.
