Best Brisket Leftovers?

HendersonTRKing

Hands down, aside from burnt ends, it’s gotta be brisket mac n cheese. Add some chopped sweet hot jalapeños and a bit of bbq sauce and/or Franks, some green chili flakes, and a bit of extra shredded cheddar and you’ll never go back to chili or nachos or tacos.

If you’ve got a better use for leftover brisket, please tell me about it. As it is, I’m obsessed and can’t stop making and consuming brisket mac n cheese.  I guess the reason I haven’t seen it at bbq joints is they always sell out and there are no lefties. But my 17 lb monster left me with a new fave. What’s yours?

1A) Chili - I don’t make chili any other way now. 

1B) Tacos

My attempt at the Real Deal Holyfield (the real RDH linked below) which always misses by an order of magnitude, although I may have to venture out and juice up the mac and cheese.

Our house is partial to nachos, but to be fair, leftover brisket is like leftover pulled pork, there is not much that isn't improved by it.

Rice bowls. Package leftovers in portioned Foodsaver bags with your sauce of choice and toss in the freezer. Reheat via sous vide and serve over rice along with chopped scallions and pickled veggies of your choice.

I'm not a fan of reheating beef but always wondered if you could dry it and make an sos.                      Kidding, but I have dried beef for tomorrow's breakfast...

Thx for the helpful suggestions . . . looks like I'm going to have to make another packer real soon so I can try these great leftover ideas!

Okay, I'm gonna have to try the Mac & Cheese!

Steak brisket tramezzini.
Brisket Tacos.

1) Brisket nachos.
2) Brisket pizza with red onion and some BBQ sauce mixed in with your usual pizza sauce.

I'm not suggesting they are better than brisket mac and cheese - but in my mind they are equal.

Brisket grilled cheese ftw.

Mr. Franklin has uncanny timing.  He gave his cooked briskets to three up-and-coming chefs in Austin, to see what they came up with: empanadas with a fig sauce, brisket ramen, and a frypan salad.  All pretty fahncy.  He then dropped this video about them, this morning.

That mac and cheese looks fantastic! I will echo what several others have on here in that we usually go with tacos or nachos with the immediate brisket leftovers (we often have plenty with just two of us in the house), but our hands-down favorite is brisket chili, which is cubed and frozen for use during our too-long winter chili season.
