Method

For the Brisket

  1. 1

    Season the Brisket

    In a small bowl, combine salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and smoked paprika. Rub this spice mixture all over the beef brisket.

  2. 2

    Sear the Brisket

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the seasoned brisket and sear on all sides until browned, about 2-3 minutes per side.

  3. 3

    Cook the Brisket

    Reduce the heat to low, cover the skillet, and cook for about 2 hours, turning occasionally until the brisket is tender. Alternatively, you can slow cook the brisket in a slow cooker on low for 6-8 hours.

  4. 4

    Rest and Slice

    Once cooked, remove the brisket from the heat and let it rest for 10 minutes. Then slice against the grain into thin pieces.

For the Sandwich

  1. 5

    Prepare the Roll

    While the brisket is resting, slice the sandwich roll in half and toast it lightly if desired.

  2. 6

    Assemble the Sandwich

    On the bottom half of the roll, layer the sliced brisket, drizzle with BBQ sauce, and add pickles. If using, top with coleslaw.

  3. 7

    Serve

    Place the top half of the roll on the sandwich and serve immediately, enjoying your delicious brisket sandwich.
