INGREDIENTS

3	lb	Brisket
1 1/2	lb	Green beans
6		Potato; peel/quarter
1/4	ts	Marjoram; crumbled
		Salt & pepper; to taste

INSTRUCTIONS

1-   Wipe meat and place in large pot. Cover with about 2 cups water.
Vegetables may be added to the meat in a crock pot along with seasonings
and the whole thing cooked 1O hours.  2-  In a dutch oven, simmer 2 to 2
1/2 hours before adding vegetables, then continue until potatoes are done.
3-  In a pressure cooker, bring brisket, water and seasonings to 15 #
pressure and cook for 3O to 4O minutes. Reduce pressure under cold water,
open cooker, add vegetables, cover, bring to 15# pressure and cook 5
minutes, reduce pressure again.       However you cook it, remove meat,
slice  thinly on the diagonal, serve with green beans and potatoes drenched
with  cooking liquid. Do not thicken the natural gravy.   It has a lovely
flavor and should not be greasy. If your meat is not well trimmed,  remove
excess fat before cooking. Should you have leftovers, heat the  remaining
liquid and slice the meat for open face or French dip hot sandwiches.
