Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Brisket

    If using leftover smoked brisket, shred or chop it into bite-sized pieces. If you need to prepare the brisket, season it with salt and pepper, and smoke it according to your preferred method until tender.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Tortilla Chips

    Spread the tortilla chips evenly on a large baking sheet. Make sure they are in a single layer for even cooking.

    Layer the Ingredients

    On top of the tortilla chips, evenly distribute the shredded smoked brisket, followed by the shredded cheddar and Monterey Jack cheese.

    Sprinkle the jalapeños over the cheese layer to add a spicy kick.

Baking
