Ive got a rolled brisket of beef 1.1kgs/2.4lbs that I want to oven cook, anyone know at what temperature and for how long do you cook it for rare/medium rare.

I don't want it pot-roasted, I just want it cooked on its own so I can slice it, also I don't have a slow cooker.

Any advice appreciated. :)
 
Thanks for the advice, unfortunately I need to brisket for today so I cant leave it over night, I was hoping you could cook it on low heat for about 4 hours, but am very unsure as to how this would turn out.

What I meant with the slow cooker is most recipes on the net advise to cook it for 6-8 hours in a slow-cooker, where as I only have an oven to use to roast it in.

Cheers for the advice on not having it rare, Ill cook it to be medium, cant stand meat thats not tender after cooking.
 
I am indeed without Aga so your way to cook would be my chosen way. To prepare it would it just require being rubbed with oil, salt and pepper? Also I take it wouldn't need sealing at all?
 
Thanks Haircut, yeah i think ill be cooking using Greebo's cooking method as slow cooking is the only way to go, cooking it too fast seems like it would turn it tough and leathery.

Anyone know if it needs to be sealed before roasting for the 2-3 hours?
