BBQ BRISKET SANDWICH WITH CARAWAY COLESLAW



BBQ Brisket Sandwich with Caraway Coleslaw image

This barbecue brisket is inspired by my mom's brisket, which is a classic Jewish-style red-wine-braised situation. The sauce combines flavors from my favorite barbecue sauce (heavy on the sweetness!) and my mom's braise, whose acidity balances the sweetness for a next-level sandwich. The caraway in the coleslaw is a nod to the caraway-flecked rye bread that's a staple at Jewish delis and I just love the woodsy depth that it lends.

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 33

1 cup ketchup
1 cup red wine
1/2 cup tomato paste
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
2 teaspoons dry mustard
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon cayenne
4 pounds brisket
1 teaspoon kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
Pretzel Challah Buns, homemade or store-bought, recipe follows
1/2 green cabbage, thinly sliced (about 4 cups)
1/4 red cabbage, thinly sliced (about 2 cups)
Kosher salt
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar
1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/2 teaspoon caraway seeds
Freshly ground black pepper
4 carrots, cut into matchsticks (about 1 1/2 cups)
1/2 sweet onion, thinly sliced (about 1 cup)
3 1/2 cups (448 grams) all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
1/4 cup (50 grams) sugar
2 1/4 teaspoons (1 envelope) instant yeast
1 teaspoon kosher salt
3/4 cup (178 grams) warm water, 105 to 110 degrees F
1/3 cup (66 grams) flavorless oil, plus more for the bowl
3 large eggs
1 cup (230 grams) baking soda
Coarse pretzel salt, for sprinkling

Steps:

  • For the BBQ sauce: Add the ketchup, wine, tomato paste, brown sugar, Worcestershire, mustard, garlic powder, onion powder and cayenne to the pot of a multi-cooker or slow cooker.
  • For the brisket: Season the brisket with the salt and some pepper and add to the pot with the BBQ sauce, coating the brisket in the sauce. Cook until tender, on high for 4 to 5 hours or on slow cook for 8 to 10 hours.
  • While the brisket is cooking, prepare the coleslaw.
  • For the caraway coleslaw: Toss together the green and red cabbage with 1 teaspoon salt in a large bowl and massage to soften; set aside.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, sugar, vinegar, mustard, caraway, 1/4 teaspoon salt and some pepper. Pour over the cabbage mixture, add the carrots and onions and toss to combine. Keep in the fridge until ready to serve.
  • When the brisket is tender, remove it from the pot and rest the meat for 10 minutes. Cut slices against the grain.
  • While the meat is resting, reduce the sauce. If you are using a multi-cooker, set to simmer for about 10 minutes to thicken. If you are using a slow cooker, remove the sauce to a small saucepot and reduce until thickened, about 10 minutes.
  • Slice the buns, toast them and spread some of the BBQ sauce on each slice. Top with the sliced brisket and coleslaw.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the flour, sugar, yeast and kosher salt. Whisk to combine. In a liquid measuring cup, combine the warm water, oil and 2 of the eggs. Beat to mix and pour into the dry ingredients. Stir to form a dough. Knead either in the stand mixer or by hand on a floured surface, adding flour as needed to prevent sticking, until smooth and just slightly sticky, 7 to 10 minutes. Grease the inside of a large clean bowl and transfer the dough to the bowl. Cover with a towel and let the dough rise until doubled in size, 2 to 3 hours.
  • While the dough is rising, bake the baking soda. Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F.
  • Spread the baking soda out on a rimmed baking sheet and bake for 1 hour. Let it cool and set it aside (even though the baked baking soda isn't as strong as lye, it could potentially irritate your skin, so avoid touching it once it's out of the oven).
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Split the dough into 8 equal portions and keep it covered when you're not working with it. Working with one piece of dough at a time, stretch it into a ball by tucking the top surface under and pinching to seal, then place it on a baking sheet. Continue with the remaining dough pieces, placing them 1 1/2 inches apart on the baking sheet. Cover and let rise for 20 more minutes.
  • Increase the oven temperature to 375 degrees F.
  • Place the baked baking soda in a large bowl or casserole dish and add 2 cups (472 grams) of water. Stir it to dissolve the baking soda. (I've never been able to get all of it to dissolve, so a few baking soda chunks are totally ok as long as they don't stick to the dough.)
  • Whisk together the remaining egg with a splash of water for the egg wash; set aside. Using gloved hands or tongs and working in batches, immerse the rolls in the baking soda bath for about 2 minutes on both sides. Pat them dry with a paper towel and place them back on the baking sheet. Brush with the egg wash and sprinkle with coarse pretzel salt. Cut 2 shallow slits in an X shape on top and bake until golden brown; begin checking for doneness at 16 minutes.

WOODROW'S COFFEE BBQ BRISKET SANDWICH



Woodrow's Coffee BBQ Brisket Sandwich image

Provided by Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 21h25m

Yield 5 servings

Number Of Ingredients 23

1/2 cup smoked paprika
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup chili powder
1/4 cup salt
1/4 cup black pepper
6 tablespoons granulated garlic
6 tablespoons onion powder
1 1/2- to 2 pounds beef brisket, preferably Angus
1 1/4 cups vegetable oil
1 tablespoon butter
1 clove garlic, chopped
1/2 shallot, chopped
1 quart BBQ sauce (any kind'll do)
2 cups your favorite coffee (brewed liquid, not grounds)
1 bay leaf
5 brioche burger buns
1/4 stick (2 tablespoons) butter, melted
Oil, for frying
1 Idaho potato, cut into thin shoestrings (use a mandoline if possible)
2 jalapenos, sliced thin
Salt and pepper
1 onion, sliced thin
5 slices yellow Cheddar (or your favorite cheese)

Steps:

  • For the BBQ rub: Mix together smoked paprika, brown sugar, chili powder, salt, pepper, granulated garlic and onion powder in a bowl. Set aside.
  • For the brisket: Trim excess fat from the outside of the brisket, keeping about 1/2-inch layer of fat on.
  • Chop up excess fat and place it in a pot with 1 cup of the vegetable oil. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until the fat starts to brown, 10 to 15 minutes. Turn off heat and let cool, then strain to remove all the fat chunks. Set aside.
  • Rub some of the remaining 1/4 vegetable oil all around the outside of the brisket. Rub brisket liberally with 3/4 cup BBQ rub (save remainder for another use). Rub the rest of the vegetable oil on top of the BBQ rub. (When putting rub on meat, just remember, "oil, rub, oil.")
  • Let the brisket rest, covered and refrigerated, overnight. (If you are in a hurry, you could let it sit in the fridge for a couple hours and it should turn out okay.)
  • Heat an outdoor grill to 350 degrees F. Preheat an oven to 200 degrees F.
  • Sear the outside of the meat on all sides on the grill. Since we are not using a smoker, it is important to get some open flame action to caramelize the outside of the meat so we get some smoke flavor. Cover the meat with foil or thick butcher paper and place in a hotel pan.
  • Transfer to the oven and roast for 12 hours or overnight. Let cool.
  • For the coffee BBQ sauce: Melt the butter in a saucepot, then add garlic and shallots. Cook, stirring, until they start to caramelize. Add the BBQ sauce, coffee and bay leaf and simmer on medium-low heat, stirring frequently, for about 30 minutes. Let cool, remove the bay leaf and puree in a blender (optional). Set aside.
  • Ready to make the sandwiches! Slice the brisket about 1/4-inch-thick and place in a large enough saute pan that each piece can be flat in the pan in a single layer. Add just enough BBQ sauce to come about halfway up the side of the meat. Heat the pan on medium to high heat. Meanwhile, split the burger buns. Toast the buns and add the melted butter to the insides.
  • Heat the oil in a deep-fryer to 350 degrees F.
  • Fry shoestring potatoes until they start to turn golden brown, then add the sliced jalapenos to the fryer and continue frying until the fries are golden and jalapenos are crispy but still bright green, 1 to 2 minutes. Let drain, then place in a bowl and season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
  • Meanwhile, pay attention to the brisket in the pan. Turn each piece over on the other side with tongs and continue searing.
  • Pour about 1/4 cup beef fat into another saute pan. Heat on medium-high heat and add the sliced onions. Cook the onions down until they start to get a dark caramelization-thing going on, then add salt and pepper to taste. Turn off heat, drain excess oil and set aside. At this point the brisket should be looking good. You want there to be a deep-dark crust forming on the outside.
  • Time to assemble! Place buns on a tray, lay your Cheddar down on the bottom, add the BBQ brisket on top, beef fat onions on top of the brisket, jalapeno shoestrings on top of the onions, put on your bun lids...DONE!

WHITNER'S BBQ HOT OPEN-FACED BRISKET SANDWICH



Whitner's BBQ Hot Open-Faced Brisket Sandwich image

Provided by Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 13h35m

Yield 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 22

1/2 cup kosher salt
2 tablespoons ground black pepper
2 tablespoons Whitner's BBQ Rub, recipe follows
2 tablespoons brown sugar
2 ounces (4 tablespoons) butter
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 tablespoon kosher salt
3/4 teaspoon garlic powder
3/4 teaspoon onion powder
1 quart chicken stock (homemade is best, but use a low-sodium version if using store-bought)
1 whole brisket
Cheap white bread
1/4 cup paprika
1/4 cup kosher salt
1/4 cup brown sugar
2 tablespoons chili powder
2 tablespoons ground cumin
2 tablespoons ground mustard
2 tablespoons ground black pepper
1 tablespoon cayenne pepper
1 tablespoon garlic powder

Steps:

  • For Whitner's brisket rub: Combine salt, pepper, Whitner's BBQ Rub and brown sugar in a large mixing bowl and mix well. Store in an airtight container.
  • For Whitner's gravy: Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium-low heat. Add the flour to make a roux and whisk until butter and flour mixture is smooth and fragrant and begins to brown slightly, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the chili powder, salt, garlic powder, and onion powder to the roux and continue to whisk for 1 to 2 more minutes. Turn heat up to medium-high and add the chicken stock.
  • Continue to whisk until the roux is dissolved into chicken stock and the gravy begins to thicken slightly, about 5 more minutes. Strain through a sieve for best results.
  • For the brisket sandwiches: Preheat a smoker for cooking at 200 degrees F.
  • Liberally rub brisket with 1/2 cup brisket rub. Smoke until tender and reaches an internal temperature of 195 to 200 degrees F. Cooking time will depend on the weight of the brisket; a 10-pound or larger brisket will typically take at least 12 hours.
  • Remove it from the smoker, wrap it in foil, and let it rest at room temperature for 1 to 2 hours. Slice brisket against the grain (remove excess fat from brisket if desired, leave on for a more intense flavor), place on top of white bread, and smother with hot gravy.
  • Place 5 to 6 slices brisket over slices of white bread and spoon gravy on top.
  • Combine paprika, salt, brown sugar, chili powder, cumin, mustard, black pepper, cayenne and garlic powder in a large mixing bowl and mix well. Store in an airtight container.

4 yellow onions, 2 sliced and 2 finely diced
One 4-pound beef brisket (point-cut or flat-cut)
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
12 cloves garlic, peeled
6 cups ale
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
4 large jalepenos, minced
3 to 4 chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, pureed
2 tablespoons granulated garlic
1 tablespoon smoked paprika
3 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 cup (2 sticks) cold unsalted butter, cut into small cubes, plus more melted butter, for brushing
1 1/2 cups shredded Cheddar
1 1/2 to 2 cups buttermilk
1 cup homemade or store-bought guacamole
1/2 cup mayonnaise
3 to 4 chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, pureed
1/4 cup lemon juice
Kosher salt
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 yellow onions, sliced
6 to 8 slices white or yellow Cheddar

Steps:

  • For the brisket: Preheat the oven to 275 degrees F.
  • Lay the sliced onions in the bottom of a roasting pan. Place the brisket on top of the onions and season with salt and pepper. Top with the garlic cloves and ale. Cover tightly with foil and roast until tender, 5 to 6 hours. Loosen the cover and let cool to room temperature.
  • Heat the vegetable oil in a large saute pan over medium heat. Add the jalapeno and diced onion and cook until tender, 8 to 10 minutes. Add the pureed chipotle peppers and cook until warmed through, about 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and let cool to room temperature.
  • Remove any excess fat from the cooled brisket with a spatula. Slice the brisket across the grain into 1 1/2-inch-thick pieces and gently pull the meat apart by hand. Place the meat in a large bowl and season with the granulated garlic, paprika, 1 teaspoon pepper and 2 teaspoons salt. Add the cooked onion and jalapeno mixture and toss gently to combine.
  • For the biscuits: Increase the oven temperature to 375 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a large bowl. Cut in the 2 sticks of cold butter until the mixture is crumbly, being careful not to overmix. Add the Cheddar. Add the buttermilk a little at a time, just until the mixture is combined and moist. Turn the mixture out onto a lightly floured surface. Gently roll or press the dough into a 1-inch-thick rectangle. Cut the dough into 4-by-4-inch squares or use a large biscuit cutter, place on the baking sheet and brush with the melted butter. Bake until golden brown, about 45 minutes. Brush with additional melted butter while the biscuits are still warm. Set aside.
  • For the chipotle sauce: Combine the guacamole, mayonnaise, chipotle peppers and lemon juice in a medium bowl and mix well. Season with salt, cover and refrigerate.
  • To serve: Heat the butter in a large saute pan over medium heat. Add the onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until deep golden brown, about 20 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Loosely wrap the biscuits in foil and place in the oven until warm. For each sandwich, place 6 to 8 ounces of the brisket mixture in a small saute pan. Heat until very warm, stirring so the brisket does not brown. Turn off the heat and top with 1 slice of Cheddar and some caramelized onions. Cover the pan until the cheese melts. Cut the warm biscuit in half lengthwise and fill with the brisket mixture. Top with the desired amount of chipotle sauce and serve.

Saute for 5 minutes, then add the ketchup, mustard, brown sauce, brown sugar, vinegar, Worcestershire, salt and lemon juice. Simmer for 2 hours, stirring occasionally to keep it from burning on the bottom. You may make your barbecue sauce ahead and keep in your refrigerator for 7 days. The sauce also freezes very well.
  • To make your sandwiches, slice and warm your Italian rolls in a toaster oven or nonstick pan. Cut a generous portion of brisket for each and place on a toasted roll. You can either top with the barbecue sauce or serve it on the side and dip your sandwich as you eat it. Repeat to make 9 more sandwiches.

Time 3h55m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 25

One 4-pound beef brisket
Kosher salt and coarsely ground black pepper
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
3 cloves garlic, peeled and crushed
2 celery stalks, cut into chunks
1 large carrot, cut into chunks
1 yellow onion, cut into chunks
2 cups red wine
2 cups beef stock
4 sprigs fresh rosemary
2 bay leaves
3 or 4 fresh thyme sprigs
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon stone-ground mustard
4 onion rolls, buttered and toasted until golden
8 slices smoked mozzarella
Red Cabbage Slaw, recipe follows
1/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice (about 1 1/2 lemons)
1/4 cup red wine vinegar
1 1/2 tablespoons sugar
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1/4 cup thinly sliced jarred cherry peppers
1 small shallot, thinly sliced
1/2 head red cabbage, thinly sliced (about 4 cups)
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
  • Sprinkle the brisket liberally on both sides with 1 tablespoon salt and some pepper.
  • Place a large Dutch oven or heavy-based pot over medium-high heat. Add the oil. Add the brisket and sear on all sides until deep golden brown, 10 to 12 minutes. Remove the brisket and set aside. Add the garlic, celery, carrots and onions and cook until browned, about 5 minutes. Deglaze the pot with the wine and let simmer, about 1 minute. Then, use a wooden spoon to scrape the bottom of the pot. Then add the stock, rosemary, bay leaves and thyme. Add the brisket back to the pot fat-side up, cover and roast in the oven until the brisket is fork tender, about 3 hours.
  • Transfer the brisket to a cutting board and let it rest, about 15 minutes. Strain out the vegetables and skim off some of the excess fat and reserve the jus. Slice the brisket thinly across the grain.
  • Whisk the mayonnaise and mustard until well blended in a small bowl. Smear the top of the rolls with the mayonnaise mixture liberally. Place the mozzarella on the bottom of the rolls, pile high with the brisket and ladle the jus over top. Top with the Red Cabbage Slaw.
  • Whisk the lemon juice, vinegar and sugar in a medium bowl. While whisking, slowly add the oil until smooth. Add the cherry peppers, shallots and cabbage. Taste and season with salt and pepper. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and set aside in the refrigerator until you are ready to serve.
