1. Season the beef brisket generously with salt and pepper on both sides.

2. In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned beef brisket and sear for about 3-4 minutes on each side until browned.

4. In the same skillet, add the chopped onion and minced garlic. Cook for a few minutes until they are soft and translucent.

5. Add the dried thyme, rosemary, oregano, and smoked paprika to the skillet with the onions and garlic. Stir and cook for another minute to release the flavors.

6. Pour the beef broth and balsamic vinegar into the skillet and stir to combine.

7. Pour the mixture over the beef brisket in the slow cooker.

8. Cover the slow cooker and cook on low for 8 hours or on high for 4 hours.

10. Serve the sliced brisket with the juices from the slow cooker drizzled over the top.

Enjoy your delicious and tender slow cooker beef brisket with your choice of sides such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a fresh salad.
