Southwest Shredded Beef Brisket Recipes

Steps:

• Season beef with salt and pepper. In a Dutch oven, heat oil; brown beef on both sides. Meanwhile, combine the next 11 ingredients. Pour over meat. Cover and bake at 325° for 2 hours. Add red peppers and carrots; bake 1 hour longer or until meat is tender. Remove meat from the pan; allow to stand 15 minutes before cutting. To thicken juices, bring to a boil. Cook, uncovered, 13-15 minutes or until thickened, stirring occasionally.

Steps:

• Season the beef generously with salt and pepper, to taste. Heat a large, heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Add the oil and heat just until beginning to smoke. Add the meat and cook, turning once, until browned on both sides, about 10 minutes total. Transfer the meat to the slow cooker; leave the skillet on the heat.
• Add garlic, onion, chili powder, coriander, and cumin to drippings in the skillet and stir until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add vinegar and boil until it's almost gone, scraping the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon. Stir in water and pour the mixture over the brisket. Crush the tomatoes through your fingers into the slow cooker; add the tomato juices, chipotles, bay leaves, and molasses. Cover the cooker, set it on LOW, and cook the brisket until it pulls apart easily with a fork, about 8 hours.
• To serve, leave the meat in the slow cooker and use 2 forks to pull it apart and stir it evenly into the sauce; season with salt and pepper, to taste. Remove and discard bay leaves. Pile the meat on sandwich buns and serve with jalapenos. (This is also great rolled up in tortillas.)

Steps:

• Lay the brisket, fat side up in a large dutch oven.
• Scatter the onion over it.
• Pour in broth and add cold water to cover the meat by 3 inches.
• Set over medium heat and bring to a boil.
• Cover, lower the heat and simmer, adding additional boiling water as necessary.

• 4 hours.
• (turn brisket halfway through cooking) Remove from heat, uncover, and let stand until broth is cool enough to handle.
• Pour off and strain broth, reserving 1 1/2 cups.
• Trim fat from brisket and throw away.
• Shred the brisket with a large, 2 pronged fork, until it almost seems fluffy.
• In a bowl, combine the beef and broth, let stand covered at room temperature.
• Meanwhile, whisk together chipotles, olive oil, lime juice, vinegar, salt, and garlic.
• Drain the meat, pressing hard with the back of a large spoon to squeeze out any broth that may be hiding!
• In a large bowl toss together beef, diced cheese, and chipotle mixture.
• Add red onion, cilantro, chile strips, and toss.
• Line a large serving platter with the outer leaves of romaine lettuce.
• Pile the meat onto the lettuce.
• Garnish around the meat with the tomato wedges and avocado.
• Scatter the radish slices all over.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
• Season the brisket on all sides with salt and pepper, and place in a glass baking dish. Cover with a layer of sliced onions. In a medium bowl, mix together the beer, chili sauce, and brown sugar. Pour over the roast. Cover the dish tightly with aluminum foil.
• Bake for 3 hours in the preheated oven. Remove the aluminum foil, and bake for an additional 30 minutes. Let the brisket rest and cool slightly before slicing and returning to the dish. Reheat in the oven with the sauce spooned over the sliced meat.
