TEXAS BARBECUE BRISKET

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.

BBQ BRISKET RECIPE

• To make the brisket, whisk the smoked paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, pepper, coriander, Worcestershire sauce cayenne, kosher salt, and brown sugar in a bowl.
• Next, pour the wet rub onto the brisket, massage it into the meat, wrap it with plastic wrap, set it on a rimmed cookie sheet, and refrigerate it overnight.
• To make the whiskey maple BBQ sauce, add the diced onion andwhiskey to a pot, heat the BBQ sauce over medium-high heat until it comes to a boil, and cook the whiskey onion mixture for 10 minutes.
• Whisk in the ketchup maple syrup, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, and liquid smoke, decrease the flame to medium-low and cook the BBQ sauce for 25 minutes, periodically stirring until it thickens up.
• Let the whiskey maple BBQ sauce cool completely, pour it into a fine-mesh sieve set over a bowl, then cover it with plastic wrap and refrigerate it overnight.
• Arrange the oven's rack in the middle of the oven, then program the oven to 260°F.
• Place the marinated brisket into a roasting pan with a roasting rack fat side up and cook it for 2-3 hours.
• Flip the brisket over and cook it for another 2-3 hours until it has a temperature of 180°F.

Steps:

• Sprinkle roast with salt and pepper.
• Roast in a covered roaster at 325 degrees for 3 to 4 hours or until tender; cool and refrigerate a short while for easier slicing.
• Mix remaining ingredients together except for the lemon.
• Cut off excess fat on roast and slice meat thinly. Cut across the grain.
• Place layers of meat in a 9 by 12 casserole dish and top each layer with sauce. I usually get 2 layers of meat with a 5 pound brisket.
• Put thinly sliced lemon over the top layer, cover and bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour or until heated through.
• Remove lemon slices before serving.
• This freezes well; thaw overnight and then reheat. I remove lemon slices before freezing.

REAL BARBECUE BRISKET

Steps:

• 1. First things first. Take the brisket out of the fridge at least 2-3 hours ahead of cooking, so it can get to room temperature.
• 2. Get your smoker going. I use nothing but seasoned wood - oak, post oak, when I can get it, hickory, cherry, or any combination. Its just fine to use charcoal and wood chunks. Just don't soak them. Otherwise you're steaming the food. You want a bed of coals and a temperature in the smoke chamber of 225-250 degrees.
• 3. While the fire is getting ready, in a bowl, mix the rest of the ingredients. If you don't want to use the coriander, that's fine. My people like the extra flavor it imparts into the meat, slight tho it may be. If you want to inject your brisket with beef stock or beef bone broth that's fine too. Use 1/3-1/2 cup of the rub on each side of the brisket. When its good and coated, put it in the middle of the smoke chamber. and close the lid.
• 4. Try and keep the temperature between 225-250, adding wood or charcoal (or both) as necessary. I don't normally go by meat temperature, but for those doing this the first time, cook the meat until the temperature gets to 165-175 (see picture). At this point, using your fingers (best tools known to man), press various parts of the meat to get an idea of what the meat feels like during the cook. Once you reach that temp, wrap the brisket. I use pink butcher paper, but you can use aluminum foil, if you don't have the paper (see it here: https://www.amazon.com/pink-butcher-paper/s?k=pink+butcher+paper). Put it back on the smoker, and cook until the temp reaches 203-205. Some folks cook it to 195-205. But you want as much of the fat to render as you can get without ruining the brisket (read: overcook). And I like 203-205.
• 5. So when its done or up to temp, take it off the smoker, put it in a roasting pan or deep dish (to catch the liquid that inevitably escapes the paper/foil) and let it rest in the oven (DO NOT TURN OVEN ON) with the door closed for about 2 hours. When you can't wait any longer, and the hungry hordes invade your kitchen, take it out of the oven, remove the paper, and transfer very, VERY carefully to a cutting board for slicing. Slice it thick or thin, whatever floats your boat. You can use some of the liquid that escaped the butt to add some flavor to your favorite store-bought barbecue sauce. Or, you can add it to your favorite recipe. Just make sure you taste the sauce after each small addition. A little goes a long way. Serve with white bread, Texas toast, or corn bread, pickles, barbecue onions and cole slaw. Or whatever you like. My family likes it all!

TEXAS-STYLE BARBECUED BRISKET

Steps:

• 1. Rinse the brisket under cold running water and blot it dry with paper towels.
• 2. Combine the salt, chili powder, sugar, pepper, and cumin in a bowl and toss with your fingers to mix. Rub the spice mixture on the brisket on all sides. If you have time, wrap the brisket in plastic and let it cure, in the refrigerator, for 4 to 8 hours (or even overnight), but don't worry if you don't have time for this-it will be plenty flavorful, even if you cook it right away.
• 3. Set up a charcoal grill for indirect grilling and preheat it to low. No drip pan is necessary for this recipe.
• 4. When ready to cook, toss 1 1/2 cups of the wood chips on the coals (3/4 cup per side). Place the brisket, fat side up, in an aluminum foil pan (or make a pan with a double sheet of heavy duty aluminum foil). Place the pan in the center of the hot grate, away from the heat. Cover the grill.
• 5. Smoke cook the brisket until tender enough to shred with your fingers; 6 hours will likely do it, but it may take as long as 8 (the cooking time will depend on the size of the brisket and heat of the grill). Baste the brisket from time to time with the fat and juices that accumulate in the pan. You'll need to add 10 to 12 fresh coals to each side every hour and toss more wood chips on the fresh coals; add about 3/4 cup chips per side every time you replenish the coals during the first 3 hours.
• 6. Remove the brisket pan from the grill and let rest for 15 minutes. Transfer the brisket to a cutting board and thinly slice it across the grain, using a sharp knife, electric knife, or cleaver. Transfer the sliced meat to a platter, pour the pan juices on top, and serve at once.
• Barbecue Sauce, the Texas Way
• The best Texas-style barbecue sauce combines the sweetness of Kansas City-style tomato sauces with the mouth-puckering tartness of a North Carolina vinegar sauce. I've come up with my own version-mix together equal parts of the Basic Barbecue Sauce and the North Carolina Vinegar Sauce . Serve this with barbecued brisket. For a really good sauce, add some meat drippings or a little chopped brisket.
