Servings: 12 Sliders
Calories: 254kcal
Equipment
- Smoker pellet grill
Ingredients
- 2 pound beef brisket
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 teaspoons paprika
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 cup BBQ sauce
- 12 Slider buns
- 2 tablespoons butter softened
- Sliced peppers quick pickles, or cole slaw (optional toppings)
Instructions
- Cut the slider buns in half and butter them. Place the face down on a heated griddle and toast them to a golden brown. Remove them from the griddle. Slather the bottom buns with barbeque sauce.
- If you're using leftover brisket, warm it up so the meat is tender and sliceable. Slice 12 long slices.
- Place a slice of warmed brisket onto each slider bun. Place your toppings, such as quick pickles and peppers, on top. I like to add a few quick pickles and some pickled sliced peppers because they add a great acidity. Pour on a bit more barbeque sauce and complete the sliders with the top bun.
Notes
- The key to tender, flavorful brisket is cooking it low and slow. Aim for a temperature around 225°F (107°C) and cook for several hours until the meat reaches an internal temperature of about 200°F (93°C).
- Warm the brisket at the same time as the buns so everything is ready to assemble while it's warm.
- You can decide if you want to add BBQ sauce or not. We use our homemade Smoky Bourbon BBQ sauce.
