Beef Brisket Sandwich
Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 3 lbs beef brisket
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 onion, sliced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup beef broth
- 1/2 cup ketchup
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 2 tbsp apple cider vinegar
- 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 4 sandwich buns
- 1 cup coleslaw
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 300°F.
- Season the beef brisket with salt and pepper.
- In a large Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Sear the brisket on all sides until browned, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove the brisket from the pot and set aside.
- Add the sliced onion and minced garlic to the pot and cook until softened, about 3-4 minutes.
- In a bowl, mix together the beef broth, ketchup, brown sugar, apple cider vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, and smoked paprika.
- Return the brisket to the pot and pour the sauce mixture over the brisket. Cover the pot and transfer to the preheated oven. Cook for 6 hours, or until the brisket is tender and easily shreds with a fork.
- Remove the brisket from the pot and let it rest for 10 minutes. Shred the meat using two forks.
- Toast the sandwich buns in a toaster or on a grill.
- Assemble the sandwiches by placing a generous portion of shredded beef brisket on the bottom half of each bun. Top with coleslaw and the other half of the bun.
- Serve the beef brisket sandwiches with extra coleslaw on the side, if desired. Enjoy!
The history of the beef brisket sandwich dates back to the early 1900s in the southern United States, particularly in Texas, where it became a staple of barbecue cuisine. Slow-cooked and smoked to perfection, the beef brisket is then sliced and served between two slices of bread, often with a side of pickles and onions. Renowned pitmasters such as Aaron Franklin of Franklin Barbecue in Austin, Texas, have elevated the art of brisket smoking, drawing food enthusiasts from around the world. Today, the best versions of this dish can be found in authentic barbecue joints across Texas, where the tender, smoky brisket is the star of the show. The key to a perfect beef brisket sandwich lies in the quality of the meat and the slow smoking process, which infuses it with rich, savory flavors. Whether it's served on a soft bun or between slices of white bread, the succulent brisket, and its accompanying sauce, make for a mouthwatering experience.
