Perfect for game day gatherings or any occasion, the key to a great slider is using high-quality brisket. From selecting the right cut of meat to creating unique toppings and sauces, in this guide, we will explore the art of smoking and seasoning brisket to create mouth-watering sliders. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Brisket sliders are a type of mini burger made with a small portion of smoked brisket as the main ingredient. They are often served as an appetizer or party food, known for their smoky, tender, and juicy flavor.<strong> To make brisket sliders, start by preparing coleslaw, a salad made of shredded cabbage, red onion, carrot, and red bell pepper, and its dressing. The buns are then cut and layered with brisket, barbecue sauce, and coleslaw, and finished off by basting the top of the buns with butter and sesame seeds. The brisket can be cooked using various methods such as smoking, slow cooking, or conventional oven. There are many ways to build sliders, and tips for reheating the brisket using sous-vide, vacuum sealer, stove or oven are also provided.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-mv-recipe\">\t<section id=\"mv-creation-52\" class=\"mv-create-card mv-create-card-52 mv-recipe-card mv-create-card-style-square mv-no-js mv-create-center-cards mv-create-has-uppercase mv-create-has-image \" style=\"position: relative;\">\n\t\t\n\t\t<div class=\"mv-create-wrapper\">\n\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<header class=\"mv-create-header\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"mv-create-title-wrap\">\n\n\t\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"mv-create-title mv-create-title-primary\">Brisket and Slaw Sliders<\/h2>\n\t<\/div>\n<div class=\"mv-pinterest-btn mv-pinterest-btn-right\" data-mv-pinterest-desc=\"Brisket%20and%20Slaw%20Sliders\" data-mv-pinterest-img-src=\"https%3A%2F%2Fwww.meatsmokinghq.com%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2022%2F03%2FCopy-of-Blog-Pictures-13-copy-7-1.jpg\" data-mv-pinterest-url=\"https%3A%2F%2Fwww.meatsmokinghq.com%2Fbrisket-sliders%2F\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"mv-create-image-container\">\n\n\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.meatsmokinghq.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Copy-of-Blog-Pictures-13-copy-7-1.jpg\" class=\"mv-create-image no_pin ggnoads\" data-pin-nopin=\"true\" data-pin-description=\"\" alt=\"Brisket and Slaw Sliders\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/meatsmokinghq.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Copy-of-Blog-Pictures-13-copy-7-1.jpg?w=400&amp;ssl=1 400w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/meatsmokinghq.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Copy-of-Blog-Pictures-13-copy-7-1.jpg?resize=300%2C185&amp;ssl=1 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\">\t<div id=\"mv-create-52\" class=\"mv-create-reviews\" data-mv-create-id=\"52\" data-mv-create-rating=\"\" data-mv-create-total-ratings=\"\" data-mv-rest-url=\"https:\/\/www.meatsmokinghq.com\/wp-json\/\"><\/div>\n\t<!-- This is a button so it inherits theme styles -->\n\t<form class=\"mv-create-print-form\">\n\t\t<button class=\"mv-create-button mv-create-print-button\" data-mv-print=\"https:\/\/www.meatsmokinghq.com\/wp-json\/mv-create\/v1\/creations\/52\/print\">\n\t\t\tPrint\t\t<\/button>\n\t<\/form>\n\n<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"mv-create-description\">\n\t\t\t<p>Smoked brisket and coleslaw are a magnificent combination.

Other suitable options include brioche or dinner rolls. When preparing brisket sliders, it is recommended to assemble them by keeping the buns attached and cutting them in half for a one big top piece and one big bottom piece. To do this, take a knife and cut the bunch of rolls in half, placing the bottom layer of the buns in a baking dish and building the sliders in the pan.

The two main cuts of brisket used for smoking are the point (or deckle) and the flat. The point cut is the fattier of the two and is often used for making burnt ends, while the flat is leaner and is typically used for slicing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When smoking brisket, the ideal temperature range is between 225-240\u00b0F and the cooking time can vary depending on the size and type of cut of the brisket, but typically takes between 12-16 hours. To achieve the best results, it&#8217;s important to maintain a consistent temperature throughout the cooking process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are several methods and equipment that can be used to smoke brisket, from pellet grills, offset smokers to kettle grills. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you don&#8217;t have access to a smoker, you can also cook brisket in a conventional oven or slow cooker. When cooking in an oven, the brisket should be wrapped in foil and cooked at a low temperature, around 225-240\u00b0F for 12-16 hours. Slow cookers are also a great option, as they allow you to set the temperature and walk away, leaving the brisket to cook low and slow for several hours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.meatsmokinghq.com\/how-to-smoke-brisket-on-a-weber-kettle-in-15-steps\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">How to Smoke a Brisket on a Weber Kettle \u2013 15 Easy Steps<\/a><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How To Build Sliders &#8211; 10 Ways<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are dozens of ways to build your brisket sliders.

When storing your brisket leftovers, keep them in a piece rather than slices. As soon as you slice or shred your brisket, it\u2019s going to lose a lot of moisture. Only ever slice what you need, so if you have leftovers, you can store it as a larger piece.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The best way to reheat brisket is using a sous-vide bath. If you own a vacuum sealer, use it to store your leftover brisket. Vacuum packaged brisket can remain in the fridge for a few weeks, or you can put it in the freezer where it can last several months.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><thead><tr><th>Reheating Method<\/th><th>Equipment Needed<\/th><th>Internal <br>Temp<\/th><th>Cooking <br>Temp<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>Stove<\/td><td>Stovetop, pan<\/td><td>135\u00b0F<\/td><td>Medium-Low heat<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Oven wrapped in foil<\/td><td>Oven, aluminum foil<\/td><td>135\u00b0F<\/td><td>225\u00b0F<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Sous vide<\/td><td>Sous vide cooker<\/td><td>135\u00b0F<\/td><td>140\u00b0F<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Microwave<\/td><td>Microwave, microwave safe dish<\/td><td>135\u00b0F<\/td><td>Medium-Low power<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Smoker<\/td><td>Smoker<\/td><td>135\u00b0F<\/td><td>225\u00b0F<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Reheating Brisket Sous-Vide<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sous-vide cooking is a technique that allows you to cook food at a precise temperature for a prolonged period of time, resulting in perfectly cooked, juicy, and tender meat. It&#8217;s a great option for cooking brisket for sliders, as it allows you to achieve a consistent and controlled cooking process without the need for a traditional smoker or oven.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can sous-vide brisket without a vacuum sealer by using zip-lock bags, which is a process known as &#8220;water displacement.&#8221; To do this, you&#8217;ll need to seal the brisket in a zip-lock bag, making sure to remove as much air as possible before sealing. Then, you&#8217;ll submerge the bag in a pot of water that&#8217;s been heated to the desired temperature and cook it for the desired amount of time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s important to note that when sous-vide cooking, the brisket should be cooked at a temperature of between 136-140\u00b0F, and the cooking time can vary depending on the size of the brisket, but typically takes around 24-36 hours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another alternative to sous-vide cooking is to use a sous-vide machine, which is a specialized kitchen appliance that allows you to cook food in a water bath at a precise temperature. Sous-vide machines are generally more expensive than traditional cookers, but they are also more versatile, and make it easier to achieve perfect results every time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In any case, you should be sure to season the brisket well with your favorite dry rub and refrigerate it overnight before cooking to allow the flavors to penetrate the meat. Once the brisket is cooked, let it rest for a few minutes before slicing it against the grain for the best texture and tenderness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<div class=\"container-lazyload preview-lazyload container-youtube js-lazyload--not-loaded\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=tnUw0pszxwA\" class=\"lazy-load-youtube preview-lazyload preview-youtube\" data-video-title=\"Reheating a brisket SOUS VIDE METHOD\" title=\"Play video &quot;Reheating a brisket SOUS VIDE METHOD&quot;\">https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=tnUw0pszxwA<\/a><noscript>Video can&#8217;t be loaded because JavaScript is disabled: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=tnUw0pszxwA\" title=\"Reheating a brisket SOUS VIDE METHOD\">Reheating a brisket SOUS VIDE METHOD (https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=tnUw0pszxwA)<\/a><\/noscript><\/div>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.meatsmokinghq.com\/brisket-leftovers-the-best-way-to-reheat-brisket\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">How To Reheat Brisket Leftovers (Sous-Vide, Oven, Grill &amp; Microwave)<\/a><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Reheat Brisket On The Stove<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Reheating brisket on the stove is a quick and easy method that can be used to quickly bring the meat up to a safe serving temperature without compromising the texture or flavor of the meat. Here&#8217;s a step by step guide on how to do it:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol>\n<li>Start by taking your leftover brisket out of the refrigerator and letting it sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes to an hour. This will allow the meat to come up to room temperature and prevent it from getting too hot or drying out when reheated.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Take a pan and place it over medium-low heat. Add two sticks of butter to the pan and let it melt.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Once the butter has melted, add the brisket to the pan and start to slowly reheat it. Make sure to flip the meat occasionally to ensure that it heats evenly.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>As the brisket starts to heat up, you can add a little beef broth or any other liquid to the pan to help keep the meat moist. You can also add your favorite BBQ sauce or other seasonings, if desired.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Once the brisket reaches a safe serving temperature of 140\u00b0F, remove it from the heat and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>It is important to note that when reheating brisket, it is important to be patient, and not to rush the process. Reheating the meat too quickly can cause it to dry out, while reheating it too slowly can cause it to become tough and rubbery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is also important to use a meat thermometer to ensure that the meat has reached the appropriate temperature before serving.

You can also use oak, or your favorite smoking wood.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Place the brisket burger patties on the grill, cooking with indirect heat. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Since we are smoking these burger patties, don\u2019t cook over a direct flame. We want them to sit in the smoker for as long as possible to absorb smoke. Pellet grills work well for this style of cooking, because they cook with indirect heat. If you have a regular kettle grill, place the coals on one side and cook on the other side, away from the fire. Kamado cookers and other styles have heat deflectors which keep the heat indirect.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Sliders are small and will cook quicker than regular-sized burgers\u2014so keep a close eye on them because they\u2019ll burn easily.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>I highly recommend using an instant-read thermometer, and monitor the internal temperature by probing a burger after about 15 to 20 minutes. &nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>In the kitchen, caramelize some onions in butter on the stove.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>If you really want to take the sliders to the next-level, fry some bacon and mix through.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>After another 20-30 minutes, flip the burgers.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Continue cooking until the temperature approaches 140\u00b0 F for medium, and 160\u00b0 F for well done.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Use a good instant- read thermometer to measure the internal temperature of the meat.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>In the last 10 minutes, baste the mini burgers with a barbecue sauce using a basting brush. Then allow 5-10 minutes for the sauce to set.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Then, place a slice of cheese on each burger patty, and leave it for 5 minutes until the cheese melts.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Cut the mini burger buns in half, while keeping them connected.

Dry brine the brisket by sprinkling kosher salt on both sides of the meat and refrigerate for a few hours or overnight.<\/p><p>4. Inject the brisket with broth or marinade. * Optional<\/p><p>5. Slather the brisket with olive oil or yellow mustard. *Optional<\/p><p>6. Apply an even layer barbeque rub. If the rub contains salt, skip the dry brine step.<\/p><p>7. Use hickory, oak, pecan or your favorite smoking wood. <\/p><p>8. Set the temperature of your smoker between 225&deg;F to 250&deg;F<\/p><p>9. Place the brisket in smoker away from the heat source. <\/p><p>10. Fill the water pan with hot water.<\/p><p>11. Insert a leave-in meat thermometer into the brisket.<\/p><p>12. Leave the brisket alone for the first 3 hours or so. Allow the brisket to absorb smoke and develop a bark. <\/p><p>13. Once the rub has fused to the meat, begin to spritz the brisket every hour with either apple juice, broth, apple cider vinegar or beer. Otherwise, mop with a mop sauce.<\/p><p>14. Once the bark is firm, wrap the brisket in foil or butcher paper. By this stage, the meat should have reached an internal temperature between 150&deg;F and 160&deg;F.<\/p><p>15. Insert the thermometer into the meat and place the brisket back in the smoker.<\/p><p>16. Continue cooking until the brisket is tender as butter when poked with a toothpick or probe. The internal meat temperature should read somewhere between 195&deg;F and 203&deg;F when perfectly tender.<\/p><p>17. Allow the meat to rest for about 1 hour before slicing. If you're not ready to serve, place the brisket into a dry cooler. Keep the brisket wrapped in foil or butcher paper, then wrap again with a towel or dish cloth. The brisket will remain hot for over 4 hours. Keep a thermometer probe inserted. <\/p><p>18.

This marinade is used in competitions and is made by World Barbecue Champion pitmaster, Dave Bouska. You can find the marinade on Amazon <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/stores\/ButcherBBQ\/page\/E8F71EB0-2371-449E-8162-2C2F8FDE7ECD?ref_=ast_bln\">h<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B00SCTKA6A?tag=mshq0320-20\">ere.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><meta charset=\"utf-8\"><strong>Butcher Paper<\/strong>: Wrapping brisket in butcher paper has become a huge trend in barbeque thanks to Aaron Franklin. Wrapping your brisket in paper will give you a nice brisket bark. However, you can\u2019t just use any old paper, it has to be unwaxed, food grade paper. You can find it on Amazon <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B0776JH663?tag=mshq0320-20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">here.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><meta charset=\"utf-8\"><strong>Brisket Rub<\/strong>: These days I make my own rub when possible, but I always have a few pre-made rubs for when I&#8217;m running low. Barbecue guru Malcom Reed produces <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B083MBPMRS?tag=mshq0320-20\">Killer Hogs, <\/a>one of the best brisket rubs I&#8217;ve found over the years. Another great rub is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B00OC18R6W?tag=mshq0320-20\">Slap Yo Daddy,<\/a> made by brisket master and multiple World Barbecue Champion, Harry Soo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Meat Thermometer:<\/strong> There are dozens of fancy thermometers on the market, but I still use my trusty TP20. For around $50, I have a high-quality meat thermometer with two probes, and can track the temperature of my smoker with one probe, and my meat with the other probe. The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B01GE77QT0?tag=mshq0320-20\">ThermoPro TP20<\/a> is an Amazon Best Seller because it\u2019s the easiest thermometer to operate, is durable, highly accurate, and comes with pre-programmed meat settings. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Instant Read Thermometer: <\/strong>Arguably, the second most important tool you need is a fast and accurate instant-read thermometer. These tools play an important role in the latter stages of the cook when the meat needs regular checking in multiple areas. I use the ThermoPro TP19 because it can do everything a ThermaPen can do, but for a fraction of the cost. You can check out the TP19 on Amazon <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B07R18W3W1?tag=mshq0320-20\">here.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Advanced Thermometer and Automatic Temperature Controller: <\/strong>Once you&#8217;re ready to take things seriously, the FireBoard 2 Drive is a six-channel Bluetooth\/Wi-Fi thermometer that can monitor up to 6 pieces of meat, control and graph your cook sessions on your smartphone, and attaches to an an automatic blower that will convert your charcoal smoker to a set-and-forget. This is one of the most advanced meat thermometers on the market. You can check it out on the FireBoard website<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.fireboard.com\/shop\/fireboard-2-drive\/?fba_ref=23\" target=\"_blank\"> here.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Brisket Sliders are a delicious and unique twist on the classic burger, perfect for any occasion.
