Spicy Beef Brisket Recipes

Steps:

• Place brisket on a rack in a shallow greased roasting pan. In a small bowl, combine the remaining ingredients; pour over brisket. Cover and bake at 325° for 3 hours or until meat is tender. To serve, thinly slice across the grain.

Steps:

• Bring brisket to room temperature early in the morning, about 1 hour.
• Whisk paprika, salt, sugar, black pepper, chili powder, cumin, garlic, cayenne pepper, and cinnamon for dry rub together in a small bowl. Apply rub liberally to the complete brisket and leave at room temperature while you prepare the smoker.
• Preheat a smoker for indirect heat to 225 to 250 degrees F (107 to 121 degrees F) according to manufacturer's instructions. Add wood chips to the charcoal and place a small cast iron pan of water over the fire.
• Lay brisket, fat-side up, about 8 inches away from the fire and smoke for 1 hour, maintaining the smoker's internal temperature at 200 to 225 degrees F (93 to 107 degrees F). Add 12 to 15 charcoal briquettes, replenish wood chips, and add more water to the pan; smoke for 1 more hour. Wrap brisket in aluminum foil, replenish charcoal, wood chips, and water, and smoke for 1 more hour.
• Meanwhile, mix hot chili sauce, beer, brown sugar, and onion for finishing sauce until well combined. Remove brisket from the smoker and place on a second sheet of aluminum foil. Unwrap brisket, being careful of the hot steam, and pour finishing sauce over the meat. Re-wrap brisket tightly with both pieces of foil and return to the smoker.
• Smoke brisket, until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers at least 160 degrees F (71 degrees C), about 1 more hour.
• Remove brisket from the smoker and let it rest in the foil for 45 minutes. To serve, slice it against the grain.

Steps:

• Remove excess fat from brisket; place in a non aluminum baking pan.
• Combine the next 8 ingredients in a bowl; pour over brisket.
• Cover and marinate 4-5 hours or overnight, turning once.
• Remove brisket from refrigerator 1 hour before roasting.
• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Roast in marinade, covered, for 2 hours, basting several times.
• Place onion rings on top of brisket and baste again.
• Roast, covered, until meat is tender, about 1 hour longer.
• Make mustard sauce: In a small bowl, stir the sugar with the vinegar until sugar is dissolved.
• Stir in remaining ingredients and mix well.
• Cover and chill; serve at room temperature.
• Remove brisket from pan and let stand 10 minutes before carving.
• Slice brisket thinly across the grain and serve immediately with Spicy Mustard Sauce.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Place the briskets in a large roasting pan. Add enough beef broth to cover briskets by a minimum of 1 inch. Cover the roasting pan and cook 3 to 4 hours until fork inserts easily into meat.
• During the last hour of cooking reduce the oven temperature to 325 degrees F. You will notice that the beef broth has been reduced and the top of the brisket is visible. Pour the "Spicy Barbecue Sauce" on the top and continue baking until done. Check the brisket approximately every 20 minutes. Serve briskets with pan juices over mashed potatoes.
• Combine ingredients and add to beef brisket during the last hour of cooking.

Steps:

• Light wood in a smoker. Build a base of coals by burning down several logs until the temperature reaches 225 degrees F.
• Coat the brisket on all sides with 8 ounces salt and then 8 ounces pepper, starting on the bottom and moving to the top.
• Place the brisket in the smoker and smoke for 6 hours. Replenish the wood as needed to maintain a steady stream of smoke, and adjust the airflow to maintain a constant temperature of 225 to 250 degrees F.
• Wrap the brisket tightly in foil and return it to the smoker until the probe of a meat thermometer easily slides through the meat (see Cook's Note). Let cool for 6 to 12 hours.
• While the coals are still hot, or over a gas flame, roast the peppers until the skins are completely black, turning frequently to ensure the flesh doesn't burn. Peel the peppers under cold water, then remove the stems and seeds.
• Butter the rolls on both sides and toast in a skillet over medium heat; set aside. Place the peppers in the skillet and place the cheese on top; cook until melted.
• Slice the brisket 1/2-inch thick and divide it among the bottom buns. Spread with barbecue sauce. Place the peppers and cheese over the sauce. Top with onions and pickles and then the top bun. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Whisk first 4 ingredients until blended.
• Place vegetables in slow cooker; top with 1/2 cup barbecue sauce mixture and meat. Cover with lid. Cook on LOW 8 to 9 hours. Meanwhile, refrigerate remaining barbecue sauce mixture until ready to use.
• Remove meat from slow cooker; place on cutting board. Cover; let stand 10 min. Meanwhile, use slotted spoon to transfer vegetables to platter. Whisk remaining barbecue sauce mixture into juices in slow cooker. Cook, covered, on HIGH 10 min. or until thickened.
• Cut meat across the grain into thin slices. Add to platter with vegetables. Drizzle with sauce.
