Preparation Time: 15 mins Cook Time: 1 hr 15 mins

Ready Time: 1 hr 45 mins


• place the tomatillos, chipotle peppers, tomato sauce, water, salt, and brown sugar in the work bowl of a food processor, and blend until smooth. set the mixture aside.
• heat the olive oil in a pressure cooker with the lid off over medium heat, and cook and stir the onion and garlic until the onions are translucent, about 3 minutes. drop the brisket into the pressure cooker, and sear it on both sides. pour the tomatillo mixture over the brisket, bring to a boil, and place the lid on the cooker. when the pressure comes up, set the heat so the cooker develops medium pressure, and cook for 1 hour and 15 minutes.
• allow the cooker to release pressure on its own (without using the quick-release), and remove the brisket. serve hot, with tomatillo sauce on the side.
