Muy Bueno Cookbook: Beef Brisket Tacos

January 23, 2013 by evebushman

Another recipe taken from my newest cookbook.  Ed liked the sound of this and I liked, guess?  The simplicity of it.  Again, the only ingredient I had to buy was the brisket, as I had made Chicken Tortilla Soup (recipe: http://evewine101.com/2012/02/08/chef-101-humpday-eve-makes-six-cans-%E2%80%93-and-more-%E2%80%93-tortilla-soup) the day before!   I found the meat a little on the dry side, which was cured by the toppings, but my eyes are still watering from the “Liquid Smoke” the recipe called for.

Beef Brisket Tacos

Ingredients:

2-4 pounds beef brisket, fat trimmed (I asked Eddie to trim the fat, the hardest part of the recipe!)

2 ounces/pound of liquid smoke (recommend Claude’s Brisket Marinade Sauce.  I couldn’t find that one..  The only one Vons had was Wright’s.  Made my house smell alike an outside BBQ all day.)

2 bay leaves

1 (12-ounce) beer (I only had Guinness Extra Stout on hand…seemed to be fine.)

Corn tortillas (Bought small flour ones too as those corn tortillas break a lot.)

Salt to taste

Pepper to taste

 

Topping Options

Grated cheese

Crema Mexicana (Guess I should have Googled this, didn’t have it.  Turns out to be “A fresh buttery-rich Grade A table cream”.  I used sour cream.)

Cilantro

Onions (oops, no one in my house likes raw onions…much)

Avocado slices

Salsa

 

Directions:

Place all the ingredients into the slow cooker and marinate overnight.

Cook on low for 8 to 10 hours.

Remove the brisket and shred the meat.

Warm corn tortillas, add shredded brisket, and garnish with your favorite toppings.
