Ah, the unassuming envelope of onion soup mix. It's more than just for onion soup (or dip). It adds tremendous flavor (and convenience) in all these recipes.

ingredients
6 pounds beef brisket
1 head garlic, divided into cloves
6 tablespoons Creole seasoning
2 teaspoons red pepper
1 onion, chopped
2 cans (10.5 ounce size) cream of mushroom soup
1/2 cup water
cornstarch, for thickening
2 tablespoons Kitchen Bouquet (more if needed)
directions
Trim brisket of fat and cut each garlic clove in half lengthwise. Stud meat with garlic pieces. Generously sprinkle Creole seasoning and red pepper over meat.
Add onion, soups and water. (You can use the reduced-fat mushroom soups if desired). Cook on LOW for 8 to 10 hours.
Remove brisket and allow liquid in slow cooker to cool. As fat rises to the top, skim and add cornstarch for thickening and Kitchen Bouquet for color to make gravy.
Slice brisket and serve.

First time making brisket with a gravy made from soup. I liked it better than I thought I would. The meat was tender. The sauce was a little salty though. I'd try to find a low sodium creole seasoning or something next time. I'll probably try it again. The family really liked it.
