Montreal Smoked Meat Sandwich image

The signature sandwich from one of my favourite Canadian cities - the recipe from one of my favourite Canadian chefs, Cristine Cushing! If you don't want to go through the long process of cooking & smoking the brisket, just use the Montreal Spice Mix as a rub on a roast. Serve piled high slivers of smoked meat between 2 slices of rye bread with loads of mustard & a dill pickle on the side!

Time 3h50m

Yield 1 brisket

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 teaspoons peppercorns
1 1/2 teaspoons coriander seeds
1 1/2 teaspoons cumin seeds
2 teaspoons fennel seeds
1 teaspoon mustard seeds
1 teaspoon mustard powder
1 tablespoon celery seed
2 allspice berries
1 tablespoon smoked paprika
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 1/2 tablespoons kosher salt
3 lbs beef brisket, with fat on
1 cup red wine
3 slices double smoked bacon
2 cups wood chips, such as apple,cherry or maple,soaked in water for 5 minutes

Steps:

  • Montreal Spice Mix: Over medium heat, toast the peppercorns, coriander seeds, cumin seeds, fennel seeds mustard seeds, allspice berries, celery seeds in a small sauté pan or cast iron frying pan until fragrant, about 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Grind spices coarsely in a mortar and pestle or spice grinder; combine with the remaining ingredients.
  • Montreal Smoked Meat: Rub ½ of the spice mixture all over the brisket; let brisket sit for 1 hour or overnight so flavour permeates the meat.
  • Preheat oven to 250 degrees F; fit the rack of a roasting pan into a roasting pan, add wine to the roasting pan& put the brisket on the rack.
  • Cover the brisket with the slices of bacon, cover with foil& slow cook for 3 hours or until meat is tender.
  • Remove from oven& add remaining spice mixture; smoke brisket with the wood chips in a smoker over low flame according to manufacturer’s instructions, about 20 to 30 minutes.
  • OR use your barbecue to smoke the meat- wrap the wood chips loosely with foil paper, poke holes in the foil, add wood chips to the barbecue on medium high heat; when the chips start to smoke, turn the grill to low heat& put the meat on the upper part of grill.

I followed the recipe exactly, and the sandwich turned out perfectly. The only thing I would change is to add a little more mustard. I love the tangy flavor it adds.
