Beth Lee over at OMG! Yummy shared her mom's recipe for Jewish Brisket with a Sweet and Tangy Braising Sauce last year and it has turned into a favorite in my house. The sauce uses beer, cranberry sauce and ketchup and it is so dang good. I especially love that she provides instructions on how to make this in the Instant Pot or slow cooker.

You know I wouldn't leave you hanging without an easy Instant Pot brisket recipe option for Passover, especially for a time-intensive dish like this. Jill at This Old Gal has a fantastic collection of Jewish recipes on her site, including this his one-hour, three-ingredient Instant Pot brisket which saves time when preparing for Shabbat dinner. One of the ingredients: onion soup mix! And she points out that Lipton makes a Kosher for Passover onion soup mix too. Just note that Jill is sure to differentiate this recipe from her own Passover Brisket, which she makes traditionally, using prunes, apricots and carrots. But if you're okay veering from the traditional and could really use the ease of an Instant Pot recipe, check out the one above which is perfect for busy parents. As in, all of us, right?
