Pineapple Brisket Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Stir together the chili powder, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, brown sugar, and meat tenderizer. Rub the spice mixture generously all over the brisket. Place the meat on a baking sheet with the fat layer up.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour; remove from oven, and lower the oven temperature to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Mix soy sauce with water in a bowl, and pour the liquid into a roasting pan. Transfer the brisket into the roasting pan. Sprinkle the meat with the crushed pineapple.
• Cover the roasting pan tightly with foil, return to oven, and bake for 3 more hours. Cool for 30 minutes before slicing.

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients except the brisket.
• Coat the brisket in the mixture.
• Place meat in a roasting pan or dutch oven and pour the remaining mixture over the meat.
• Bake, covered, at 350 degrees for 2-3 hours or until done (very tender).
• Check on meat during cooking just in case you need to add a bit of water or pineapple juice to moisten and I like to turn the meat during the during the cooking.
• When done, let meat rest 10 minutes before slicing against the grain.

Steps:

• Preheat a smoker to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C). Place cherry wood chips into the smoker to add sweetness.
• Wash pineapple well but make sure to keep the leaves intact. Cut pineapple in half lengthwise, cutting through the middle of the leaf stalk. Cut out a V-shape down the middle of each half to remove the dense core. Hollow out each pineapple half by making cross and side cuts, but leave some meat on the skin. If pineapple gets completely hollowed out, the skin gets very flexible so leaving a little meat will keep it sturdier.
• Chop pineapple meat into 1/2-inch pieces. Pour out any remaining pineapple juice from the husks and reserve for a different use.
• Combine pineapple chunks, pulled chicken, barbeque sauce, and bacon bits in a large bowl; mix to combine. Fill pineapple halves with the mixture and top with glazed walnuts and cranberries.
• Place pineapple halves into the smoker and smoke until outsides look darker and leaves start to shrivel, about 1 1/2 hours.
• Remove pineapple halves from the smoker very carefully as they will be very soft and flexible.
