Brisket Ingredients

Method

Brisket Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Brisket

    Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C). Trim excess fat from the brisket and season it with salt, black pepper, and paprika.

  2. 2

    Sear the Brisket

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Sear the brisket on all sides until browned, about 4-5 minutes per side.

  3. 3

    Add Aromatics

    Place the seared brisket in a roasting pan. Add chopped onion and whole garlic cloves around the brisket.

  4. 4

    Add Liquid and Bake

    Pour beef broth and barbecue sauce over the brisket. Cover tightly with foil and bake for 3-4 hours, or until the brisket is tender.

  5. 5

    Rest and Serve

    Remove the brisket from the oven and let it rest for 20 minutes before slicing. Serve with additional barbecue sauce if desired.

Fried Chicken Directions

  1. 6

    Marinate the Chicken

    In a large bowl, soak the chicken pieces in buttermilk for at least 2 hours, or overnight for best results.

  2. 7

    Prepare the Coating

    In a separate bowl, mix together the flour, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika.

  3. 8

    Heat the Oil

    In a large pot or deep fryer, heat vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C).

  4. 9

    Coat the Chicken

    Remove chicken pieces from buttermilk, allowing excess to drip off. Dredge each piece in the flour mixture until fully coated.

  5. 10

    Fry the Chicken

    Carefully add chicken pieces to the hot oil in batches. Fry for about 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through (internal temperature of 165°F or 75°C).

  6. 11

    Drain and Serve

    Remove the fried chicken from the oil and let it drain on paper towels. Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauces.
