Smoked brisket eggs Benedict idea

reinhart36 · March 2016

This is my latest brainstorm. I've had fried oyster eggs Benedict before: muffin/eggs/fried oysters/Hollandaise (in that order in the presentation from plate up).

Having recently tasted smoked brisket BBQ nachos while on a trip, it occurs to me that brisket can be an ingredient and doesn't need to be a stand-alone entree. Therefore, this comes to mind:

Eggs Benedict constructed as: muffin/eggs/smoked brisket/Hollandaise (maybe with some smoked jalapeno pepper in the Hollandaise).

Smoking the brisket now for dinner as I type. Leftovers will be deployed for the aforementioned experiment in two weeks (I'll use the freezer, obviously)...

Anyone already done this??

PS - Dill seed is a great addition to wet rubs, IMO. You can see some in the picture, which came from last year's garden in the fall..

I love breakfast sandwich with brisket. Not sure I'd put hollandaise sauce on it which is all the more reason you should try it and let us know!

Sounds great - I had a steak Benedict the other day that was on a jalapeño corn cake, steak was chopped up and it was fantastic. I think the brisket idea is a good one. Post pics.

@reinhart36 see below. I've heard the cuban one is good also, just haven't tried it yet.

I had a variation of the "Texas Benedict" in the post above. It was at a restaurant called Texss Spice at the Omni hotel in Downtown Dallas next to the convention center. It was called Brisket Hash. Two poached eggs atop a bowel of or brisket chunks that were bite sized, sautéed potatoes, jalapeños and onions. It was the best breakfast I have ever had in my life. It was about $12 and I told the server they weren't charging enough for it!!!!
