Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Brisket

    If you haven't already, smoke the brisket using your preferred method until it reaches a tender state. Allow it to rest before slicing it into bite-sized pieces.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Salsa

    In a bowl, combine diced tomatoes, chopped onions, cilantro, lime juice, salt, and pepper to taste to make the house-made salsa. Set aside.

Assembly

  1. 3

    Layer the Nachos

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). On a large baking sheet, spread out the tortilla chips evenly.

  2. 4

    Add the Brisket

    Evenly distribute the smoked brisket pieces over the tortilla chips.

  3. 5

    Add the Cheese

    Sprinkle the shredded cheddar and Monterey Jack cheese generously over the brisket.

  4. 6

    Add Jalapeños

    Scatter the jalapeños over the cheese for added spice.

Baking

  1. 7

    Bake the Nachos

    Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 10-15 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

  2. 8

    Serve

    Remove from the oven and serve immediately with a side of house-made salsa for dipping.
