Boil first 3 ingredients in pot until reduced to 4 cups, about 25 minutes.

Preheat oven to 325øF. Heat oil in large Dutch oven over high heat.
Add bones;
saute until well browned, turning occasionally, about 12 minutes. Transfer bo
nes to bowl. Add onions, celery and allspice to Dutch oven. Season with salt;
cook until onions are golden, stirring often, about 25 minutes. Continue cook
ing until onions are deep dark brown, scraping bottom of Dutch oven and stirrin
g often, about 15 minutes more. Add garlic and thyme; saute 5 minutes. Transf
er onion mixture to large roasting pan. Add 1 cup broth mixture to Dutch oven.
Bring to boil, scraping up browned bits; transfer to roasting pan.

Season brisket generously with salt and pepper. Add to Dutch oven and brown ov
er high heat, about 5 minutes per side. Place brisket, fat side up, on onion m
ixture in roasting pan; surround with bones. Add remaining broth mixture and t
omatoes to Dutch oven; bring to boil, scraping up browned bits. Pour mixture o
ver brisket.

Cover roasting pan tightly with heavy-duty foil and place in oven. Bake until
brisket is tender, about 3 hours 45 minutes. Remove foil. Cool brisket 2 hour
s. Refrigerate uncovered 3 hours. Cover brisket tightly and keep chilled 1 da
y or up to 3 days.

Scrape fat from top of pan juices; discard fat. Transfer brisket to cutting bo

of roasting pan to simmer. Discard bones. Pour contents of roasting pan into
coarse strainer set over large bowl. Press on solids to release as much liqui

Slice brisket thinly across grain at slight diagonal angle. Arrange slices in
glass baking dish. Drizzle 1/2 cup sauce over; cover with foil.

Bring large pot of salted water to boil. Add all squashes, turnips and carrots
