  3. 3 Preheat a smoker to 225 to 250 degrees F (107 to 121 degrees C) for indirect heat. Add wood chips to the charcoal according to manufacturer's directions; place a small cast iron pan of water over the fire.
  4. 4 Place brisket, fat-side up, onto wire rack about 8 inches away from the fire; smoke for 1 hour, maintaining the smoker's internal temperature at 200 to 225 degrees F (93 to 107 degrees C). Add 12 to 15 charcoal briquettes, replenish wood chips, and add more water to the pan; smoke for 1 hour more.

Instructions

  1. 1 Prepare a thermocirculator and water bath according to manufacturer's directions. Set thermocirculator to 128 degrees F (53 degrees C) and allow water bath to come up to temperature.
  2. 2 While water heats, trim excess fat from the fat cap of the brisket to about 1/4 inch. Do not remove all the fat, as this will contribute to keeping the meat juicy. Pat brisket dry with a paper towel.
  3. 3 Combine salt, onion powder, garlic powder, smoked paprika and pepper in a small bowl. Completely cover all sides of the brisket with the spice mixture.
  4. 4 Place the brisket in a large vacuum sealable bag. Seal bag according to manufacturer's directions. Transfer vacuum sealed brisket to warm water bath with thermocirculator, cover vessel with aluminum foil to reduce evaporation, and cook undisturbed for 48 hours. Remove brisket from bag, reserving cooking liquid (you should have about 3 ½ cups cooking liquid). Strain cooking liquid through a fine mesh sieve and discard any solids. Set brisket aside on a plate or cutting board.
  5. 5 Place dried ancho chiles in a large, dry saucepan over medium high heat. Cook, turning often, until chiles are blistered, and aromatic. Remove chiles from heat and allow to cool briefly. Once chiles have cooled enough to handle, remove stems and seeds, and tear chiles into 2-inch pieces. Place torn chiles in a medium bowl with 1 cup of boiling water and 2 cups of strained, reserved cooking liquid; allow to stand until chiles have softened, about 10 minutes.
  6. 6 Meanwhile, heat 2 tablespoons canola oil in the same saucepan over medium-high heat. Add onions and smashed garlic cloves; cook, stirring often, until onions and garlic have softened, about 5 minutes. Add tomato paste and cook, stirring often, for 1 minute. Add red wine and allow mixture to reduce until most of the liquid excep tfor about 1/4 cup has evaporated, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat.
  7. 7 Remove softened chiles from liquid, and strain liquid through a fine mesh sieve, reserving 1/2 cup of the strained liquid. Combine softened chiles, 1/2 cup reserved liquid, onion mixture, and ketchup in a blender; blend until smooth. Add unsalted butter and sherry vinegar to the mixture and process until smooth. If you want a spicier sauce, add cayenne pepper or hot sauce to taste.
  8. 8 Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium high (350 degrees F to 400 degrees F / 175 degrees C to 200 degrees C).
  9. 9 Pat brisket dry with paper towels and rub with remaining 2 tablespoons oil. Place on the preheated grill and grill until grill marks appear, the outside is slightly charred, and the brisket is heated through, about 5 minutes per side.
  10. 10 Transfer brisket to a cutting board, let stand for 5 minutes to rest, and slice thinly against the grain of the meat and serve hot with sauce.

  5. 5 Meanwhile, season brisket all over with the dry rub. Place brisket in the slow cooker on top of the onions and carrots, with the fatty side facing up. The cooking liquid should reach just to the bottom of the brisket; if not, add a little water.
  6. 6 Cover and cook on Low for 8 hours. Turn the slow cooker off and transfer brisket to a foil-lined sheet pan. Trim some of the fat if desired.
  7. 7 Place barbecue sauce in a bowl. Ladle 1/4 cup hot cooking liquid from the slow cooker into the bowl and mix it with the barbecue sauce. Baste the fatty side of the brisket with this mixture. Preheat the oven's broiler.
  8. 8 Place the brisket in the preheated oven so there are 6 inches between the top of the brisket and the burner. Broil until the fatty edges start to crisp up, 2 to 4 minutes; watch closely so it doesn't burn.
  9. 9 Remove from the oven and let rest for 10 minutes. Slice brisket thinly and against the grain.

  2. 2 Combine paprika, garlic powder, black pepper, sea salt, and cayenne pepper in a bowl; set aside.

Instructions

  1. 1 Place onion and garlic in a large slow cooker. Add ketchup, beer, vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, and liquid smoke. Set aside.
  2. 2 Combine salt, pepper, chili powder, paprika, oregano, and sugar in a bowl. Rub spice mixture all over brisket. Place brisket into the slow cooker. Sprinkle any remaining spice mixture on top.
  3. 3 Cover, and cook on Low until brisket is fork-tender, 10 to 12 hours.
  4. 4 Transfer brisket to a large bowl. Remove and discard fat from sauce in the slow cooker. Pour 2 cups of sauce from the slow cooker into a saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat. Dissolve cornstarch in water. Stir into sauce. Cook, stirring often until sauce thickens, 5 to 10 minutes. Meanwhile, shred brisket into small pieces using two forks.
  5. 5 Pour thickened sauce and remaining sauce from the slow cooker into a blender, filling the pitcher no more than half full. Hold down the lid of the blender with a kitchen towel. Pulse several times to get sauce moving. Purée until smooth. Transfer the sauce back to the slow cooker. Alternately, use a stick blender directly in the slow cooker.
  6. 6 Add shredded brisket to the slow cooker, stirring together until combined. Use tongs to serve beef on potato buns.
