Brisket Enchiladas Recipes

Steps:

• Grease a 7x11 glass pan. I find this an odd size but it's perfect for a family of 3. In each tortilla (these are the smaller soft taco size), add the chopped brisket to your liking. Roll them up and place them side by side. I was able to get 8 in this dish.
• Take your brisket drippings and spoon over the rolled up tortillas. This is where all your spices are from the original cook. If you don't have the drippings, consider adding some spices in your chili. Coat each one liberally.
• Pour the canned chili over the enchiladas. Add the cheese, then the onions. On a pellet grill, cook at 250* for about 45 minutes until bubbly and cheese is melted. If using your oven, cook at 350* for about 30 minutes.
• Add salsa and sour cream if desired. Serve with rice and beans (try Bush's Refried Beans. They are really good!!)

Steps:

• Prepare the chili con carne: Put flour in a large sauté pan set over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring frequently, until it begins to turn golden brown and smell nutty, then pour it onto a plate to cool.
• Wipe out sauté pan and return it to high heat with 2 tablespoons oil. When oil is hot and shimmery, add ground beef to pan, and cook, breaking it up with a fork and stirring, until it is well browned, about 12 to 15 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, then use a slotted spoon to remove meat to a bowl, leaving drippings behind.
• Add onion, garlic and jalapeño to pan and cook, stirring to scrape up any browned bits of meat, for 10 to 12 minutes, or until vegetables are soft. Stir in tomatoes and cook until their liquid has evaporated, then add chile powder, cumin and oregano and stir to combine. After a minute or so, when mixture begins to turn fragrant, return browned meat to pan, along with toasted flour, and stir well to combine.
• Lower heat to medium-high and slowly stir in chicken stock, 1/2 cup at a time, until mixture has thickened and started to simmer. Lower heat again and allow chili to cook slowly for 45 minutes to 1 hour, until meat is tender. Add more stock or water if needed. Use immediately, or let cool, cover and refrigerate for up to a few days.
• When you are ready to cook the enchiladas, heat oven to 425 degrees. In a medium sauté pan set over medium-high heat, heat 1/2 cup neutral oil until it begins to shimmer. Using tongs or a wide spatula, place a tortilla in the hot fat; it should start to bubble immediately. Heat tortilla for about 10 seconds a side, until soft and lightly browned. Remove tortilla and set on a rack set over a baking pan, or just on a baking pan if you don't have a rack. Repeat with remaining tortillas, working quickly.
• Assemble the enchiladas: Using a ladle, put about 1/2 cup chili in the bottom of a 9-by-13-inch baking pan and spread it out a little. Roll a few tablespoons of cheese into each tortilla, along with a tablespoon or so of chili, then place it seam-side down in the pan, nestling each one against the last. Ladle remaining chili over top of rolled tortillas and sprinkle with remaining cheese.
• Transfer to oven and bake until sauce bubbles and cheese is melted, about 10 to 15 minutes. Sprinkle chopped onions over the top, if using, and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Spray a medium saucepan with cooking spray and sauté garlic. Add chipotle chiles, chili powder, cumin, broth, tomato sauce, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 5-10 minutes. Set aside until ready to use. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Heat vegetable oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Saute onions and garlic on low until soft, about 2 minutes. Add brisket, salt, cilantro, cumin, oregano, chili powder, tomato sauce, and broth and cook 4 to 5 minutes. Remove from heat. Spray a 13x9-inch glass baking dish with non-stick spray. Heat each tortilla in microwave approximately 8 seconds. Put 1/4-1/3 cup brisket mixture into each tortilla and roll it. Place in baking dish seam side down. Top with sauce and cheese. Cover with aluminum foil and bake in oven for 20 minutes. Remove foil and bake an additional 5 minutes. Top with sour cream or scallions if you wish.
