How to make Brisket with carrots and onions

1) Preheat the oven to 180°C. Place the brisket in a heavy roasting pan. In a small bowl, combine the salt, pepper, garlic, and oregano. Rub the mixture on the brisket. Pile the carrots, celery, onions, and bay leaves on the brisket and pour in enough tomato juice to come about three quarters of the way up the meat and vegetables.

3) Bake for 3 1/2 hours, or until the meat is tender. Remove the meat from the pan and keep it warm. Place the pan on two burners and boil the vegetables and simmer sauce over medium heat for another 30 minutes, or until thickened.
