Yield Makes 8

2 teaspoons (packed) golden brown sugar
2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper

1/2 teaspoon dried oregano

8 potato-bread hamburger buns
Toppings:
8 slices red onion
8 slices tomato
Texas Barbecue Sauce

Steps:

  • For coffee rub:
  • Mix all ingredients in small bowl. DO AHEAD: Can be made 1 week ahead. Store airtight at room temperature.
  • For burgers:
  • Cook bacon in large skillet until crisp. Transfer to paper towels to drain. Break in half. Gently mix chuck and sirloin in large bowl. Form meat into 8 patties, each 3 1/2 to 4 inches in diameter and 1/3 to 1/2 inch thick. Using thumb, make slight indentation in center of each burger. DO AHEAD: Burgers and bacon can be prepared 8 hours ahead. Cover separately and chill.
  • Prepare barbecue (medium-high heat). Sprinkle 1 teaspoon coffee rub on top side of each burger. Place burgers, rub side down, on grill rack. Grill until slightly charred, about 4 minutes; turn.
  • Place 2 bacon slice halves atop each burger. Cook 3 minutes.
  • Top each with 1 cheese slice. Cover and cook until cheese melts, about 1 minute longer. Place burgers atop bottom halves of buns. Top with onion slices and tomato slices. Spoon dollop of Texas Barbecue Sauce over. Cover with bun tops and serve, passing additional sauce alongside.
  • What to drink:
  • Beer is a natural pairing for a burger. Keep the southern theme going by pouring a Texas brew. We like the caramel sweetness and mild hoppy flavor of Shiner Bock ($8 per six-pack).

Brisket in Coffee-Barbecue Sauce image

Provided by Molly O'Neill

Categories     dinner, roasts, main course

Time 3h45m

Yield 10 to 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

3/4 cup vegetable oil
1 large Spanish onion, minced
5 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon crushed-red-pepper flakes
1 tablespoon tomato paste
7 tablespoons light-brown sugar
5 cups brewed coffee
1/2 cup cider vinegar
1 28-ounce can peeled, chopped tomatoes
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 brisket (about 4 pounds)

Steps:

  • In a medium kettle, heat 1/4 cup of the oil over medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring, until soft and golden brown, about 7 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Stir in the red pepper. Add the tomato paste and cook, stirring frequently, about 1 minute. Stir in the brown sugar. Pour in the coffee, vinegar and tomatoes, bring to a boil, then lower to a simmer. Simmer 10 minutes. Set aside to cool.
  • Working in small batches, transfer the tomato-coffee mixture to a blender and puree. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Set aside.
  • Preheat the oven to 275 degrees. Season the brisket with salt and pepper. In a Dutch oven with a tight-fitting lid, heat the remaining 1/2 cup oil. Brown the brisket on both sides. Drain off the oil, leaving the brisket in the Dutch oven. Turn the brisket so that the fat side is facing up and then coat it with the pureed tomato-coffee mixture. Cover the Dutch oven and place it in the oven. Bake for 3 hours, basting frequently.
  • Remove the lid and bake uncovered until the brisket is glazed and very tender, about an hour and a half more. Remove the brisket and set it aside to rest for 10 minutes, covered with foil, before slicing thinly across the grain.
