- 4 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tbsp ginger, grated
- 1 tbsp allspice
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1 tsp nutmeg
- 1 tsp thyme
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar

- 1/4 cup water
Cooking Tips:
- Choose a good quality brisket with a nice marbling of fat for a tender and juicy result.
- Marinate the brisket overnight for maximum flavor.
- Use a slow cooker or a Dutch oven for a tender and flavorful brisket.
Instructions:
1. In a large bowl, mix together the onion, garlic, ginger, allspice, cinnamon, nutmeg, thyme, salt, and black pepper.
2. Rub the spice mixture all over the brisket, making sure to coat it evenly.
3. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the brisket and sear it on all sides until browned, about 3-4 minutes per side.
4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the brown sugar, soy sauce, apple cider vinegar, orange juice, ketchup, and water.
5. Place the seared brisket in a slow cooker or a Dutch oven. Pour the sauce over the brisket.
6. Cover and cook on low heat for 8-10 hours in a slow cooker or 3-4 hours in a Dutch oven, until the brisket is tender and falls apart easily.
7. Remove the brisket from the slow cooker or Dutch oven and let it rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing.
8. Serve the Jamaican-Inspired Brisket with your favorite sides, such as rice, beans, or roasted vegetables.
