Smoked Brisket Sandwiches

Smoked Brisket Sandwiches feature chopped, leftover smoked brisket mixed with barbecue sauce, layered with pickles and creamy crunchy coleslaw on toasted burger buns. The slaw combines broccoli slaw mix and shredded red cabbage with a tangy mayonnaise and vinegar dressing, adding crispness and balance to the rich meat. These sandwiches combine smoky, sweet, tangy, and crunchy elements for a satisfying handheld meal.

Description

This recipe assembles sandwiches using warmed chopped smoked brisket coated in barbecue sauce, placed on lightly toasted buns with pickles and a creamy crunchy coleslaw. The coleslaw is made by mixing tri-colored broccoli slaw, shredded red cabbage, mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, salt, and sugar. The coleslaw provides a fresh and tangy counterpoint to the smoky, rich flavor of the brisket and barbecue sauce.

The sandwiches are built by layering pickles first, then a generous portion of the sauced brisket, and topping with as much coleslaw as preferred before finishing with the bun. This combination results in a harmonious mix of textures and flavors in every bite.

The brisket and slaw can be prepared a day in advance and stored separately in airtight containers for up to 3 days. Reheat the brisket gently before assembly to maintain juiciness and serve the slaw chilled for the best contrast.
