Barbecued Brisket of Beef Recipe:
Barbecued Brisket of Beef
1 c White wine
3 c Apple cider
1/4 c Honey
2 tb Dijon mustard
1/4 c Soy sauce
2 tb Brown sugar, packed
1 tb Minced garlic
1 tb Minced fresh ginger root
1 tb Whole coriander
2 Sprigs fresh thyme
1 Brisket of beef (2-1/2 lb)
COMBINE WINE, CIDER, HONEY, mustard, soy sauce, brown
sugar, garlic, ginger root, coriander and thyme in
Dutch oven or heavy roasting pan. Add brisket. Cover
tightly and place in oven. Turn oven to 350F and cook
1 hour.
Remove brisket from cooking liquid, cover and set
aside. Transfer liquid to medium pan and cook over
medium heat until reduced to a glaze and thick enough
to coat back of spoon.
Using covered grill, light about 12 charcoal
briquettes and add small piece of mesquite or other
wood. Be sure to place charcoal and wood to one side
of grill. Arrange brisket on grill so that it is not
directly over burning wood. Paint it with some glaze.
Place cover on grill and smoke brisket 1 hour, turning
meat and coating with glaze every 15 minutes. Add
charcoal or wood, small piece at a time, if fire seems
to get too cold. Remove from grill, thinly slice meat
against grain and serve.
Offer any remaining glaze on side.
