TEXAS BARBECUE BRISKET

Take your barbecue beyond the burger with this brilliant beef brisket

Provided by Good Food team

Categories     Buffet, Dinner, Main course, Supper

Time 6h30m

Number Of Ingredients 17

about a 5kg/ 11 lb piece of beef brisket
500 ml/ 18 fl oz beef stock
1 tbsp sunflower oil
1 small onion , finely chopped
3 garlic cloves , crushed
500 ml/ 18 fl oz tomato ketchup
100 ml/ 3.5 fl oz Worcestershire sauce
75 ml/ 2.5 fl oz lemon juice
2 tbsp brown sugar
1 tbsp malt vinegar
2 tsp Dijon mustard
1 tsp crushed chilli flakes
1 tsp Tabasco sauce
1 tsp dried thyme
2 tbsp each chilli powder and mustard powder
1 tbsp each paprika , ground cumin, garlic powder, ground black pepper, caster sugar
1 bay leaf , crushed

Steps:

  • To make the barbecue sauce, heat the oil in a frying pan, then cook onion and garlic for a few mins until soft. Add the rest of the sauce ingredients to the pan with a good pinch of salt and simmer for 20 mins. Use a hand blender or food processor to whizz to a smooth purée.
  • Heat oven to 150C/130C fan/gas 2. Make the rub by mixing all the ingredients together with a pinch of salt. Rub the mix all over the beef and set aside.
  • In a large roasting tin, mix the beef stock and ½ the barbecue sauce. Add the brisket to the tin, cover tightly with foil, then cook for 4-5 hrs until the meat is really tender when you push a fork into it. The beef can be prepared the night before - just leave it to cool in the tin covered with foil, but don't refrigerate.
  • To finish the beef, get a barbecue fired up and wait until the coals are completely ashen - you want a low, not fierce, heat. Lift the beef out of the roasting tin and place on the barbecue to char. If your barbecue has a lid, close it now. Cook for about 20 mins, turning it carefully with tongs, until lightly charred all over and heated through. Lift onto a board and serve sliced with the remaining barbecue sauce on the side.

SLOW-COOKED, TEXAS-STYLE BEEF BRISKET



Slow-Cooked, Texas-Style Beef Brisket image

This slow-cooker recipe comes directly from the heart of a wonderful Texas cook who makes the best brisket in the world! Yay, Papa Louis! He shared it with me years ago, via my sister (his daughter-in-law). I change it from time to time by adding ingredients to make it more Mexican (serve it with tortillas), or leave it as is and serve it with fresh rolls.

TEXAS BRISKET ROAST



Texas Brisket Roast image

The simplest things in life are the best; and this recipe is very simple. The trick is the long cooking time at low temperature. You can't speed this up by cooking at a higher temperature. Must cook hot for the first hour, though, so the meat heats through. Makes for a great meal any time of the year. Serve with summer squash casserole, mashed potatoes and biscuits or corn bread (jalepeno corn bread?).

Categories     Meat

Time 6h2m

Yield 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 (6 lb) beef brisket
1 package dry onion soup mix
1 can Campbell's Golden Mushroom soup
1/2 cup red wine
1 tablespoon minced or crushed garlic

Steps:

  • Pre-heat oven to 400 Degrees.
  • Spread out two (2) two and one half ft lengths of wide aluminum foil and cross them (like a plus sign) inside of a roasting pan with long ends hanging out.
  • Shake out half of the dry onion soup mix and garlic onto the foil and lay brisket on top inside the pan.
  • Shake out the rest of the dry onion soup mix and garlic on top of the Brisket.
  • Close brisket up in foil so that it is completely encased and nothing will seep out.
  • Put in oven and cook at 400 degrees for 1 hour, then turn down to 250 degrees and let cook for 5 hours.
  • When done, open up foil, set aside roast, and pour drippings into 2 quart sauce pan.

LOW AND SLOW TEXAS OVEN BRISKET



Low and Slow Texas Oven Brisket image

For years R. B. could not stop falling for the latest food magazine pitch for perfectly smoked, tender beef brisket. Finally, after a twelve-hour ordeal of tending the fire and at least six episodes of wrapping and unwrapping and mopping, Min led him from the patio and into the kitchen and showed him around. Since that breakthrough, brisket is what's for dinner much more often. Whether you're cooking indoors or out, the brisket's best friend is heavy-duty aluminum foil to trap moist heat and smoke. R. B.'s reformed oven method for brisket is to wrap it once, tuck it in a warm oven, and go to bed. Who needs melatonin with the aroma of a brisket wafting through the house in the wee hours? Be prepared to wake up ravenous.

Yield makes 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 medium onion, chopped
6 garlic cloves, chopped
One 4- to 6-pound beef brisket with a layer of fat
3 to 4 tablespoons Cheater Chili Dry Rub (page 45)
1/4 cup bottled smoke
1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce

Steps:

  • HEAT the oven to 250°F.
  • SCATTER the onion and garlic in the middle of a sheet of heavy-duty aluminum foil large enough to generously wrap around the meat. Lay the brisket on top and rub all sides with the dry rub. Pour the bottled smoke and Worcestershire over the meat.
  • SEAL the foil around the meat. Carefully place the foil pack in a large roasting pan. Roast the brisket for 7 to 9 hours, until the internal temperature is at least 190°F and the meat is pull-apart tender.
  • REMOVE the brisket from the oven. Open the foil and allow the juices to collect in the pan. Move the brisket to a cutting board and thinly slice it against the grain. Serve with the warm meat juices.

Provided by Steven Raichlen

Categories     dinner, project, roasts, main course

Time 6h

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 3

1 5- to 6-pound piece beef brisket, with thick layer of fat
1/4 cup basic rub (see recipe)
5 cups hickory or oak chips, soaked in cold water for 1 hour, and then drained

Steps:

  • Preheat grill to 325 degrees, building fire on opposite sides of grill if using charcoal, or on one side or opposite sides if using gas. Season brisket with rub.
  • If using charcoal, every hour for first 5 hours add fresh coals and toss 1/2 cup wood chips on each mound of coals. If using gas, place wood chips in smoker box, and preheat until you see smoke (depending on model of gas grill, use all 5 cups at once or 1 cup every hour for first 5 hours).
  • Place brisket, fat side up, in foil roasting pan just large enough to hold it. Place pan in center of grill, away from heat.
  • Barbecue brisket until nicely browned, cooked through and very tender, for 5 to 7 hours. If brisket starts to brown too much, tent it loosely with foil.
  • Transfer cooked brisket to cutting board, cover with foil, and let rest for 10 minutes, reserving pan juices. With sharp knife, trim and discard any large lumps of fat. Slice brisket thinly across grain. Serve with slices of white bread, spooning pan juices over top.
