Chile & Beer Braised Brisket image

From EatingWell Magazine. I used dried chiles I had on hand, which turned out to be ancho & pasilla - both a low-heat-level chile. I found the spice level perfect, but if you like spicier, use chile(s) with more heat. Try this with tortillas or as a filling for enchiladas or tamales. Or serve as-is with rice and a salad.

Time 3h30m

Yield 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

6 dried chilies, stemmed and seeded (New Mexico, Anaheim or Ancho)
1 (14 ounce) can fire-roasted diced tomatoes
1 large onion, coarsely chopped
4 garlic cloves, coarsely chopped
4 teaspoons chili powder
2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 teaspoon salt
12 ounces lager beer
1 tablespoon canola oil
2 -2 1/2 lbs beef brisket, trimmed of excess fat
1 (15 ounce) can pinto beans, rinsed & drained

Steps:

  • Tear chiles into pieces and place in a large bowl. Cover with hot water and let sit until softened, at least 20 minutes. Drain.
  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Place tomatoes and their juices, onion, garlic, chili powder, cumin, salt and the drained chile pieces in a blender or food processor. Process until smooth. Transfer back to bowl from chiles and stir in beer.
  • Heat oil in a large Dutch oven over medium heat. Add brisket and brown on both sides, about 3-4 minutes per side.
  • Pour the chile sauce over the meat and bring to a simmer.
  • Cover, transfer to the oven and bake for 2 hours.
  • Stir in beans and continue baking until the meat is fall-apart tender, 45 minutes to 1 hour more.
  • Transfer the meat to a cutting board and pull apart into long shreds using two forks. Stir the shredded meat back into the sauce.

I'm not a big fan of beer, but this recipe changed my mind. The beer adds a subtle flavor to the brisket that really enhances the taste.
