SUNNY'S EASY BBQ BRAISED BRISKET WITH SWEET POTATO AND CARROT MASH

Steps:

• Coat the brisket on all sides with the rub and actually rub it in. Pull out a length of plastic wrap for the brisket and drizzle some oil where you plan to place the brisket. Place the brisket on top and drizzle the top with oil. Wrap tightly and rest at room temperature for 2 hours. If you are making this ahead of time, you can refrigerate, then rest on the counter for 2 hours before braising.
• Add 2 tablespoons of oil to a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. When the oil begins to swirl, add the brisket and sear on all sides until browned, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Remove to a plate.
• Add the onions, carrots and potatoes to the pot and cook for a few minutes to coat them in the fat and get a bit of color. Make the contents of the pot as level as possible, toss in the garlic, then place the seared brisket on top of the vegetables.
• Stir together the BBQ sauce and stock in a medium bowl. Add to the pot around the brisket, being careful to only fill halfway up the brisket, leaving a bit of the seared meat above the liquid line (you may not use all the liquid). Raise to a boil and lower to a low simmer. Cook, covered, for 2 to 3 hours without peeking, until the brisket is tender!
• Remove the brisket from the pot to a plate and cover gently with aluminum foil. Remove the vegetables from the pot with a slotted spoon and place in a food processor. Blitz until smooth, adding liquid from the pot if needed for texture. Use the remaining liquid as a sauce for the brisket, if desired. Transfer the mash to a bowl and fold in the parsley. Serve with the sliced brisket and additional sauce.

TEXAS BBQ BRAISED BEEF BRISKET

Steps:

• For the rub: Mix the paprika, 1 tablespoon each of salt and black pepper, the brown sugar, and the cayenne. Rub spice mixture all over brisket, wrap tightly, and refrigerate overnight.
• Soak the wood chips in water for at least 30 minutes before grilling. Prepare an outdoor grill with a medium to medium-low fire for indirect grilling.
• For the sauce: Mix the tomato puree, beer, celery, onion, 1/2 cup of the vinegar, the brown sugar, mustard, bacon, garlic, chiles, bay leaves, chili powder, 1 tablespoon salt, and black pepper to taste in a large disposable aluminum pan. Put brisket in the sauce.
• Throw a handful of drained wood chips on the hot coals, put the pan over the cooler side of the grill, and cover so the vent holes are directly over the brisket. Baste meat every 30 minutes, turning occasionally and adding water to the pan as necessary to keep meat partially submerged, until the meat is tender and an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part registers 200 degrees F, about 3 3/4 hours. Replenish the charcoal as needed to maintain a medium to medium-low fire.
• Transfer the brisket to a cutting board, tent with foil, and let rest for 20 minutes. Skim the fat from the braising sauce and stir in the remaining 1/4 cup cider vinegar and salt to taste. Reheat if necessary. Thinly slice brisket across the grain and arrange on a serving platter. Spoon some sauce over the meat and pass the rest at the table.

BARBECUE BRISKET

Steps:

• Season both sides of the brisket with Dry Rub and place in pan. Mix the lemon juice and water, and pour over the brisket. Let stand overnight in the refrigerator. Remove the brisket from the pan, reserving the marinade. Cook the brisket in a preheated 250-degree oven, 1 hour per pound. Baste with marinade and cover. Continue to cook the brisket at 250 degrees for another 1 1/2 hours or until tender.
• Mix all ingredients together and generously sprinkle on brisket prior to cooking.

BRISKET

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Heat the oil a large, heavy bottomed Dutch oven over medium-high heat until beginning to smoke. Season the brisket generously with the paprika, salt, and pepper. Place fat side down in the Dutch oven and cook until brown on all sides, about 8 to10 minutes. Transfer the meat to a plate and set aside.
• Discard about half the fat, then add the onions and cook over medium heat until browned and tender, about 10 minutes. Pour in the vermouth and cook until reduced by about half. Nestle the brisket into the onions fat side up, add the broth; bring to a simmer and bake, covered, until the brisket is fork tender, about 1 1/2 to 2 hours. Uncover, scatter the carrots around the brisket and cook until the carrots are tender, about 30 minutes more.
• Transfer the brisket to a cutting board, cut the fat off the top and thinly slice the meat across the grain. Return the meat to the braising liquid and serve immediately or, cool to room temperature in the sauce, cover and refrigerate overnight. When ready to serve reheat in the sauce.

INSTANT POT BBQ BRISKET SLIDERS

Steps:

• For the brisket: Sprinkle the brisket evenly all over with the crushed peppercorns and 1 tablespoon salt; firmly press into the meat. Heat the oil in a 6-quart Instant Pot® set to saute mode (see Cook's Note) until shimmering. Add the brisket and cook, turning occasionally, until browned all over, about 8 minutes. Add the garlic and broth then follow the manufacturer's guide for locking the lid and preparing to cook. Set to pressure cook on high for 1 hour 15 minutes.
• After the pressure-cook cycle is complete, follow the manufacturer's guide for quick release and wait until the quick-release cycle is complete. Being careful of any remaining steam, unlock and remove the lid. Transfer the brisket to a cutting board to rest for 10 minutes before slicing thinly across the grain and then cutting into bite-size pieces. Pour the cooking liquid into a large liquid measuring cup and skim off the fat; reserve the liquid for the barbecue sauce.
• For the slaw: Meanwhile, combine the mayonnaise, sour cream, Dijon, vinegar, honey and celery salt in a medium bowl and whisk well. Add the broccoli slaw, toss to combine and season with salt and pepper. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
• For the barbecue sauce: Return 1/2 cup of the reserved cooking liquid to the Instant Pot. Add the ketchup, vinegar, mustard, brown sugar, Worcestershire, molasses, celery salt and 1/2 teaspoon salt and set to saute mode. Bring to a boil and cook, stirring frequently, until reduced slightly, about 5 minutes. Add the sliced brisket, gently toss to coat, bring the sauce to a boil then immediately turn off the heat.
• For serving: Split the slider buns. Put some slaw and brisket on each bottom bun. Top with more slaw and close the sliders with the top buns.

• Mix the beef stock or broth, balsamic vinegar, brown sugar and garlic in a large liquid measuring cup and set aside.
• Heat the olive oil in a Dutch oven or large heavy-bottomed pot with a lid over medium-high heat. Add the brisket fat-side up and cook until golden brown and no longer sticking to the bottom of the pot, 4 to 5 minutes. Flip and cook the other side until it is golden brown and some of the fat has rendered, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove the brisket to a plate and lower the heat to medium.
