Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C).

  2. 2

    In a small bowl, mix together salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and smoked paprika.

  3. 3

    Rub the spice mixture all over the beef brisket, ensuring it's evenly coated.

  4. 4

    In a large oven-safe pot, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Sear the brisket on all sides until browned, about 3-4 minutes per side.

  5. 5

    Once seared, remove the brisket from the pot and set aside. Pour in 1 cup of BBQ sauce and stir to deglaze the pot, scraping up any browned bits.

  6. 6

    Return the brisket to the pot, cover with a lid, and transfer to the preheated oven. Cook for 3-4 hours or until the brisket is tender.

  7. 7

    While the brisket is cooking, prepare the coleslaw. In a large bowl, combine coleslaw mix, mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Mix well and refrigerate until ready to serve.

  8. 8

    After the brisket has cooked, remove it from the oven and let it rest for 20 minutes before slicing.

  9. 9

    Slice the brisket against the grain and toss the slices with the remaining BBQ sauce.

  10. 10

    To assemble the sandwiches, place a generous portion of sliced brisket on each bun and top with coleslaw.

    Serve immediately and enjoy your BBQ Beef Brisket Sandwiches!
