Ingredients
Brisket Preparation (if making fresh):
- 2 lbs beef brisket
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 tablespoon avocado oil
- 3 cups water or enough to partially cover brisket
- 1 mushroom bouillon cube
- 1 onion thinly sliced
- 4 cloves garlic minced
- 3 sprigs fresh thyme
- 1 tablespoon smoked paprika
- 1 tablespoon gluten-free soy sauce
Sandwich Assembly:
- 2 cups leftover brisket
- 4 hamburger buns (gluten-free) or hearty rolls
- 1 cup cabbage shredded
- ¼ cup Sliced pickles bread and butter
- 2-3 tablespoon mayo
- 2-3 tablespoon barbecue sauce or ketchup
- Extra toppings of choice lettuce, onions, cheese
Instructions
Prepare the Brisket (skip if using leftovers):
- Pat the brisket dry and season with salt. Heat avocado oil in a skillet over medium-high heat, then sear the brisket on all sides until a golden crust forms.
- In a slow cooker, add water, mushroom bouillon, onion, garlic, thyme, smoked paprika, and soy sauce. Place the seared brisket in the slow cooker, cover, and cook on low for 6-8 hours until the brisket is tender.
- Remove brisket from the slow cooker, shred into bite-sized pieces, and set aside. Save the broth for gravy or to keep the brisket moist when reheating.
Assemble the Sandwich:
- Reheat Brisket: If using leftover brisket, reheat in a skillet or microwave until warmed through.
- Prep Bread: Toast the buns or rolls until golden. Spread mayo or horseradish aioli on both sides of the bun if using.
- Layer Ingredients: Place the shredded brisket on the bottom bun, then layer with cabbage, pickles, and any additional toppings.
- Add Sauce: Spoon barbecue sauce or ketchup over the brisket for added flavor, then top with the other half of the bun.
- Serve and Enjoy: Slice in half if desired and serve warm.
Notes
- Gluten-free Notes: To keep this recipe gluten-free, ensure you use gluten-free bread or buns and opt for gluten-free soy sauce or tamari.
- Storage: Store shredded brisket separately in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 3 months. Bread and fresh toppings should be stored separately for maximum freshness.
- Tip for Juicy Brisket: Reheat brisket with a little of the reserved broth to keep it moist and flavorful when assembling sandwiches.
