Barbecue Brisket Sandwiches

source: Better Homes & Gardens
INGREDIENTS
  • 3/4 cup water
  • 1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 Tbsp. vinegar
  • 1 tsp. instant beef bouillon granules
  • 1 tsp. chili powder
  • 1/2 tsp. dry mustard
  • 1/4 tsp. ground pepper
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 2-1/2-lb. fresh beef brisket (not corned)
  • 1/2 cup ketchup
  • 2 Tbsp. brown sugar
  • 1 tsp. cornstarch
  • 8 rolls (6- to 8-inch), split and toasted, buns or bread
DIRECTIONS
 
In a small bowl combine the water, Worcestershire sauce, vinegar, bouillon granules, chili powder, mustard, pepper, and minced garlic. Reserve 1/2 cup of the mixture for the barbecue sauce. Trim any excess fat from the brisket. If necessary, cut the brisket to fit into a 3-1/2- or 4-quart crockery cooker.
 
Place brisket in slow cooker. Pour the remaining Worcestershire sauce mixture over meat. Cover and cook brisket on low-heat setting for 10 to 12 hours or on high-heat setting for 4 to 5 hours. (I always use the low setting)
 
For sauce, in a small saucepan combine the reserved sauce mixture, ketchup, brown sugar, and cornstarch. Cook mixture over medium-high heat till thickened and bubbly. Cook and stir 2 minutes more. To serve, remove meat from cooker; discard cooking liquid. Thinly slice meat diagonally across grain. Serve meat on toasted rolls. Pass the sauce. 
 
Makes 8 servings
 

Barbecue Sauce

I like to double the barbecue sauce recipe for serving extra on the side with the sandwiches. For convenience, I have listed below the quantities for doubling the recipe.

Brisket Barbecue Sauce

  • 1 1/2 Water
  • 1/2  Worcestershire Sauce
  • 2 Tbs vinegar
  • 2 tsp instant beef bouillon granules
  • 2 tsp  chili powder
  • 1 tsp dry mustard
  • 1/2 tsp ground red pepper
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup ketchup  
  • 4 Tbs brown sugar
  • 2 tsp cornstarch
You can serve the meat on purchased rolls, buns or bread. For an extra special meal, I make sandwiches on homemade snowflake rolls. They really aren’t that hard to make and the light and soft rolls are amazing with the barbecued brisket and sauce.
 
snowflake rolls (dough made using bread machine).
 
You might also want a side dish. We like Macaroni salad 🙂

    Yummy yum yum. No room for a bread machine, guess I could find a recipe for baking conventional way. I love the idea of baking them in a bundt pan. Macaroni salad looks fabulous, too.
