Brisket Chili Recipe
Brisket is one of my favorite cuts of meat. This Oven Barbecued Brisket is one of my favorite foods ever. Brisket lends so much flavor to chili and the pieces of meat get so tender.
How To Make Slow Cooker Brisket Chili
The brisket is cut into 1-inch pieces and tossed with lots of spices: chili powder, cumin, oregano, and garlic powder plus some flour which will not only help the brisket brown well, it will thicken the chili a little.
The brisket pieces get browned in some vegetable oil and then placed in a 6-quart crock pot along with a diced onion, a diced red bell pepper, garlic, black beans, diced tomatoes, beef broth, and crushed red pepper flakes. After 8 hours on LOW, the meat is so tender and good.
How To Serve
Top with sour cream, diced avocado, fresh cilantro, and pickled jalapeno slices. To spice it up even more, serve with Cholulu Hot Sauce. A side of Buttermilk Cornbread Muffins or Texas-Style Jiffy Cornbread is a must!
Variations and Substitutions
- Use pinto beans or kidney beans in place of black beans or leave the beans out.
- Add a cup of corn.
- Use cayenne pepper instead of red pepper flakes.
How To Store
This chili can be kept in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 5 days or frozen in a freezer bag for up to 3 months.
