  • Author: Luna
  • Total Time: 3 hours 45 minutes

Ingredients

– 3 pounds beef brisket
– 2 tablespoons olive oil
– 1 large onion, chopped
– 4 cloves garlic, minced
– 2 tablespoons chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, finely chopped
– 1 tablespoon ground cumin
– 1 tablespoon smoked paprika
– 1 teaspoon salt
– 1 teaspoon black pepper
– 1 cup beef broth
– 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
– 12 slider buns
– Fresh cilantro, for garnish
– Lime wedges, for serving
– Optional toppings: avocado, pickled jalapeños, coleslaw


Instructions

Creating your Chipotle Brisket Sliders can be easy if you follow these simple steps:

1. Sear the Brisket: Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season the brisket with salt and pepper. Sear the brisket until browned on all sides, about 5–7 minutes total.
2. Prepare the Sauce: In the same skillet, add chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 3–4 minutes. Add minced garlic and cook for another minute. Stir in chipotle peppers, cumin, and smoked paprika, cooking for an additional minute until fragrant.
3. Combine Ingredients: Place the seared brisket in a slow cooker. Pour the onion mixture over the top. Add beef broth and Worcestershire sauce.
4. Slow Cook: Cover the slow cooker and cook on low for 8 hours or high for 4 hours, until the brisket is tender and easily shreds with a fork.
5. Shred the Brisket: Once cooked, remove the brisket from the slow cooker and let it rest for 15 minutes. Shred the meat using two forks.
6. Combine Meat with Sauce: Return the shredded brisket to the slow cooker and mix with the sauce to ensure it’s well coated.
7. Toast the Buns: While the meat is resting, toast the slider buns in a toaster oven or under the broiler until lightly golden.
8. Assemble Sliders: Place a generous scoop of the shredded brisket on the bottom half of each bun. Top with desired toppings, such as fresh cilantro or jalapeños, and then place the top half of the bun on each slider.
9. Serve Immediately: Arrange the sliders on a platter for guests to serve themselves.

By following these simple steps, you will have a plateful of delicious Chipotle Brisket Sliders ready to be enjoyed.
