Transfer mixture to large roasting pan, spreading onions in center and bones around edge.
Add 1 brisket to same skillet and cook until brown, about 5 minutes per side.
Transfer brisket to roasting pan and place atop onions.

Add button mushrooms, stock, Marsala, dried mushrooms, garlic and allspice to same skillet. Bring mixture to boil, scraping up browned bits.
Cover tightly with heavy-duty foil.
Roast until briskets are very tender, about 2 hours.
Uncover; let cool at least 30 minutes.

*NOTES: This hearty winter entrée can be prepared several days ahead.
Veal brisket is the boned veal breast. If you don’t have a roasting pan large enough to hold both briskets, divide the ingredients in half and bake in two pans.
If the veal is difficult to find, substitute one 5-pound (2kg) flat-cut beef brisket and roast until tender, about 3½ hours.
Leftovers freeze well and make great sandwiches.
