Dutch Oven Barbeque Brisket Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (160 degrees).
• Sprinkle both sides of brisket with salt, pepper and garlic powder. Place in a large covered roasting pan.
• Cook covered with no water at 325 degrees F (160 degrees C) allowing 1 hour per pound.
• Before last hour of cooking, remove brisket and slice. Return slices to pan and add barbecue sauce mixed with water. Cover meat with sauce, cover, and cook 1 hour longer.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 300 degrees.
• Combine all of the seasoning ingredients in a bowl and rub the mix into the beef. Place the brisket in a roasting pan. Slowly cook the beef for 1 hour, turn the beef and cook one hour more before covering with a tight fitting lid. Continue to cook with the lid tightly in place for 2 1/2 to 3 hours more. This will render most of the fat. Carefully pour off and discard the fat. Allow the beef to rest for 20 to 30 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Check to see if the brisket fits into a Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot with a lid. If not, slice the brisket into 2 pieces against the grain to allow it to fit.
• Put a cooling rack over a baking sheet. Put the brisket on the rack with the side lined with a thin layer of fat touching the rack. Sprinkle the salt and black pepper all over the brisket, making sure to season both sides. Let the brisket come to room temperature for about 30 minutes. (Tip: This step can be done up to 1 day in advance. Refrigerate the seasoned brisket, uncovered. By letting the brisket rest in the refrigerator, the sear will be more even and golden brown.)
• Put a Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot over high heat. Add the oil and heat until shiny, about 30 seconds. Add the brisket fat-side up and sear until golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Turn the brisket over and sear the other side for another 3 to 4 minutes. Remove the brisket from the pot and set aside.
• Reduce the heat to medium high and add the onions. Cook until just translucent, about 3 minutes. Pour the cola into the pot and scrape up any brown bits. Place the brisket back in the pot fat-side up, along with any juices that have collected around it. Bury the brisket under the onions. Add the beef stock, star anise, rosemary sprigs and bay leaf; the stock should not submerge the brisket, but come up about two-thirds of the way. Bring to a simmer and reduce the heat to medium low. Cover the pot and cook for 1 1/2 hours.
• Remove the lid and flip the brisket over, making sure to nestle it back into the softened onions. Cover the pot and continue cooking until the beef is tender but not falling apart, an additional 1 1/2 hours. Remove the beef from the pot and set on a cutting board. Remove the rosemary stems, bay leaf and star anise and discard. Place the pot over high heat and cook the sauce until slightly reduced, about 10 minutes.
• Thinly slice the brisket against the grain and spread onto a serving platter. Top the sliced brisket with the onions and spoon the sauce over the platter. Sprinkle with the parsley and thyme. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
• Drizzle brisket liberally with olive oil then season the meat on both sides with salt and pepper.
• Place a large Dutch oven or heavy-based pot over medium-high heat and add a 3-count of olive oil. Place the brisket in the pot and sear on both sides to form a nice brown crust. Remove from pot and set aside before adding carrots, onion and celery. Brown vegetables, then add the garlic, tomatoes, red wine, bay leaf, thyme, rosemary, and parsley. Add the brisket back to the pot, cover and roast in the oven for 3 hours until the brisket is fork tender.
• Remove the brisket to a cutting board and let it rest for 15 minutes. Strain out the vegetables and pour off some of the excess fat, then pour over the brisket.
• Slice brisket across the grain and serve over parsnip puree with roasted red onions and garnish with parsley.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Heat a large pot or Dutch oven that can later be covered over medium-high heat for 2 or 3 minutes. When it is hot, add oil, swirl it around, then add beef. Sear meat for about 5 minutes on each side, seasoning with salt and pepper; when nicely browned, remove from pot. Turn off heat under pot for a minute.
• Add onion to pot and cook, stirring, over medium-low heat until softened, 5 to 10 minutes (if meat is very lean you might need to add a little oil). Add all remaining ingredients, stir, and cook for about a minute. Return meat to pot, nestling it in sauce.
• Cover pan, put it in oven, and cook until meat is tender, at least 2 hours and probably closer to 3. When it is done, you can refrigerate it in its liquid for 1 to 2 days before proceeding.
• Light a charcoal or gas grill or heat broiler; rack should be about 4 inches away from heat source. Drain meat and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Grill or broil on both sides until brown and crisp, just a few minutes. Meanwhile, skim cooking liquid of fat, warm gently, and use as sauce.

Steps:

• Combine wine, cider, honey, mustard, Habanero pepper sauce, soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic, ginger root, coriander and thyme in a large Dutch oven or heavy roasting pan.
• Add brisket,cover tightly,and place in the oven set to 350F; cook for about 1 hour.
• Remove brisket from the cooking liquid, cover and set aside.
• Pour the liquid into a medium pan and cook over medium heat until reduced to a glaze, just thick enough to coat back of spoon.
• Using covered grill, light about 12 charcoal briquettes and add small piece of water soaked mesquite, pecan, hickory, or other woods.
• Be sure to place charcoal and wood to one side of grill.
• Arrange brisket on grill, fat side up, so that it is not directly over burning wood.
• Paint it with some glaze.
• Place cover on grill and smoke brisket for about 1 1/2 hours, turning meat and coating with glaze every 15 minutes.
• Add charcoal or wood, small pieces at a time, if fire seems to get too cold.
• Remove from grill, thinly slice meat against grain and serve.
• Offer any remaining glaze on side.

Steps:

• Trim as much fat as possible off the brisket and trim to fit in a 12 inch Dutch Oven. Rub with a small amount of oil and salt and pepper to taste. Saute garlic in oil till golden brown. Place brisket in Dutch Oven, sear 3-4 minutes per side. At this point I like to sprinkle the brisket liberally with Schillings Chicken Mesquite Seasoning®. Cover with sliced onions and add beer. If yours is a dry camp substitute 4 - 5 cups water and or beef bouillon.Put about the same number of briquets top and bottom, 12-14, and for the next hour work on shucking the corn or putting the finishing touches on a potato salad. Check the liquid about this time and add more if needed. Keep about 1-inch liquid in your Dutch Oven.Minimum cooking time is about 1 1/2 hours. I prefer to cook mine about twice that long, which is usually enough to make this fairly tough cut of meat succulent and tender. Add fresh charcoal when needed. Forty-five minutes before dinner pull the lid and brush top side with BBQ sauce and continue to cook for 30 minutes.Fifteen minutes before serving, remove brisket from DO and allow to rest on a cutting board. Slice and serve with your favorite BBQ sauce on the side. (Only Yankees eat their meat smothered with BBQ sauce.)A Back Country Guide to Outdoor Cooking Spiced with Tall Tales - Meat in Camp
