Categories     main-dish

Time 11h

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 27

1/4 cup kosher or sea salt
1/4 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
1/4 cup sweet paprika
2 tablespoons pure chili powder
2 tablespoons freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1 (5 to 6-pound) center-cut piece of brisket
6 slices bacon
Coffee and Beer Mop Sauce, recipe follows
Jim's Really Easy and Really Good Barbecue Sauce, recipe follows
4 to 6 cups hickory or apple wood chips, soaked for 1 hour in water to cover, drained
1 cup beer
1 cup apple cider
1 cup cider vinegar
1 cup coffee
1 cup beef or chicken stock
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce
2 tablespoons hot sauce, (recommended: Tabasco sauce)
2 teaspoons kosher or sea salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 cups your favorite barbecue sauce, (recommended: KC Masterpiece or Bull's Eye)
1 to 2 cups your favorite mild or hot salsa
1/4 cup cider vinegar, or more to taste
Kosher or sea salt
Freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Make the rub by placing the salt, brown sugar, paprika, chili powder, pepper, onion powder, and oregano in a small bowl and stir to mix.
  • If your brisket has a thick layer of fat, trim it to a thickness of 1/4-inch. Place the brisket in a roasting pan and generously sprinkle both sides with the rub, using about 3 tablespoons per side and patting it into the meat with your fingertips. The leftover rub can be stored for several months in a jar. You can cook the brisket right away, but it will taste better if you let it cure in the refrigerator covered for at least 4 to 24 hours.
  • Set up the grill for indirect grilling and preheat to medium-low. If using a gas grill, place all the wood chips in the smoker box or in a smoker pouch and run the grill on high until you see smoke then reduce the heat to medium-low. If using a charcoal grill, place a large drip pan in the center, preheat the grill to medium-low, then toss 1 cup of the wood chips on the coals.
  • When ready to cook, place the brisket in the center of the hot grate, fat side up, over the drip pan and away from the heat. Drape the bacon slices over the top of the meat, and then cover the grill. Cook the brisket until very tender, 5 to 6 hours or until the internal temperature reaches about 190 degrees F. Generously mop or baste the meat on both sides with the mop sauce. Wrap the brisket in aluminum foil, and continue cooking until done. If using a charcoal grill, every hour you'll need to add 12 fresh coals and 1/2 cup wood chips to each side.
  • Transfer the grilled brisket to a cutting board and let rest for 10 minutes. Thinly slice across the grain, using an electric knife or sharp carving knife. Transfer the sliced meat to a platter. Spoon the barbecue sauce over the meat or, better yet, serve it on the side.
  • Place all ingredients in a non-reactive bowl and whisk to mix. Taste for seasoning, adding more salt, if necessary.
  • Combine the barbecue sauce, salsa, and vinegar in a non-reactive saucepan over medium heat, bring to a simmer, and let cook until thick and flavorful, 5 to 8 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. The sauce can be served hot or at room temperature and may be refrigerated, covered, for up to 48 hours. Bring to room temperature before serving.

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 35

One 3-pound beef brisket, point cut
3 tablespoons reserved spice rub from Barbeque Chicken, recipe follows
1 medium onion, diced
1 tablespoon chopped garlic
One 12-ounce can beer
1/4 cup cider vinegar
2 tablespoons canola oil
2 tablespoons brown sugar
2 teaspoons chopped garlic
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
2 teaspoons hot sauce
1 tablespoon ketchup
1/4 cup water
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 1/2 tablespoons paprika
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 1/2 tablespoons chili powder
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 tablespoon salt
2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
3 pounds bone-in chicken thighs
1/2 cup barbeque sauce
1 teaspoon freshly chopped garlic
1 tablespoon spicy brown mustard
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon hot sauce
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
4 yellow squash, sliced lengthwise in 1/2
2 tablespoons canola oil
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F.
  • Coat the brisket on all sides with the spice rub. In a roasting pan add the onion, garlic and beer. Arrange the brisket in the roasting pan, loosely cover with foil and put it in the oven for 2 1/2 to 3 hours.
  • Combine all the mop ingredients in a medium pot. Bring to a simmer over medium-low heat and let cook for 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside.
  • Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
  • Remove the brisket from the oven and put it on the grill. Add the liquid from the roasting pan to the mop sauce. Brush the brisket generously with the mop sauce and grill until the brisket develops a nice crust about 5 minutes per side. Make sure to brush the brisket about every 2 minutes with the mop sauce.
  • Transfer the brisket from the grill to a cutting board and let rest 5 minutes before slicing. Cut the meat, against the grain, into 1/4-inch thick slices. Top with a bit of the tangy mop sauce and arrange on a serving platter.
  • In a small bowl add all of the spice rub ingredients. Stir together with a fork until well blended. Reserve 3 tablespoons of the rub for another use. Sprinkle the remaining spice rub over the chicken parts until well coated.
  • Preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook for 8 to 10 minutes per side. If using an outdoor grill, heat the grill on low. Arrange the chicken on the grill, cover and grill over indirect heat until cooked through about 10 to 15 minutes per side.
  • While the chicken is grilling add all the barbeque sauce ingredients to a small pan and stir well to combine. Bring to a simmer over low heat and let cook for 5 minutes.
  • Brush the chicken with the barbeque sauce. Cook for 3 minutes, flip and brush the other side of the chicken with remaining sauce and cook and additional 3 minutes. Let rest for 5 minutes before serving. Reserve 2 thighs for another use. Arrange the chicken on a serving platter and keep warm.
  • Brush the squash with the canola oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Put on the grill and cook for 3 to 4 minutes per side over direct heat. Remove from the grill to a cutting board and cut into 1/2-inch thick slices. Transfer to a serving bowl and serve with the chicken.
