BEEF BRISKET TACOS
Birthday parties back home were big gatherings of cousins, aunts, uncles, grandparents and anyone else we considered family. As soon as guests arrived, hot pans of shredded brisket, or carne deshebrada, appeared, along with frijoles, tostadas, salsas and huge bowls of salad. Brisket was the dish we always counted on because it could be made in the oven or a slow cooker. -Yvette Marquez, Littleton, Colorado Muy Bueno Recipes + Stories

- - If serving a family of 4, use remaining brisket for other meals; burritos, nachos or etc. - If you desire, chopped onion and minced garlic can be added when you brown the brisket. - You can omit the vegetable oil and heat or 'render' fat in a large, heavy skillet until it browns and liquid fat covers the bottom of the skillet, then brown the beef in the rendered fat. - An authentic method of thickening the sauce that the beef is cooked in is to crush Mission(R) Round Tortilla Chips in a blender with some of the stock the beef has been cooked in. Add that mixture back to the sauce and heat to thicken. - Serve these tacos with sour cream, chopped cilantro, and a squeeze of fresh lime juice.
Tips:
- Prep your brisket the night before for maximum flavor.
- Use a good quality, flavorful rub. Our recipe includes a blend of chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and salt.
- Cook your brisket low and slow. This will help it to become tender and juicy.
- Let your brisket rest before slicing it. This will help the juices to redistribute throughout the meat.
- Serve your brisket tacos with your favorite toppings. We recommend shredded cabbage, diced tomatoes, sliced avocado, and a dollop of sour cream.
