BBQ Sauces

Hi Wanda,

Always happy to meet some more friends who like to cook like I do. Of course, being from Davidson County, NC, home of the Barbecue Festival, with this Forum topic here, you're touching on a subject near & dear to my heart, and my stomach too!

Here's a little something that I just fixed the other night, that was Plum Good!, even if I do say so myself. I hope that you all might like it as well.

Barbecued Brisket of Beef

1 cup White wine

3 cups apple cider

1/4 cup honey

2 tablespoons Dijon mustard

1/4 cup soy sauce

2 tablespoons brown sugar -- packed

1 tablespoon minced garlic

1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger root

1 tablespoon 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.

Have A Great Week My New Friend,

Man that looks like it tastes more delicious than the steaks cooked at Stew Leonards!!

Hi Lawrence,

Having never eaten a Steak cooked in their Restaurants in either NY Or CT, I can't say for certain if this Brisket tastes as good as one prepared at Stew Leonards, however I can vouch for how good this one tastes. I will say that all of the steaks that I have ordered from Stew Leonard's Catalog were top-notch, at least when cooked on my Grill here at home in NC.

Glad you liked the Recipe my Friend.

Have A Great Evening,

Phil
