This to-die-for Easy Slow Cooker Chipotle Beef Brisket is tender, smokey, slightly spicy, and super flavorful. It\u2019s everything you love about chipotle flavors with all there is to love about a fantastic cut of beef.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Looking for a new brisket recipe? Then you have to try my Easy Slow Cooker Chipotle Beef Brisket! If you love slow-cooked meat<\/a>, you\u2019ll love this deliciously tender<\/strong> and flavorful <\/strong>brisket. <\/p>\n\n\n\n I love a good slow cooker recipe because it helps me create amazingly delicious meals with zero fuss<\/strong>, minimal prep<\/strong>, and no need to hang over the hob for hours. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Easy Slow Cooker Chipotle Beef Brisket is surprisingly simple to make<\/strong>, but since it\u2019s a tough cut of meat, it needs to cook for a long time, so it is perfect for the slow cooker. It’s tender, smokey, slightly spicy, and super flavorful<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This recipe calls for three pounds of brisket, making it perfect for small parties, feeding a large family, or having leftovers. Simply slice your brisket and serve it on a plate with your favorite side dish. Or It can also make a delicious sandwich with some Texas Toast and coleslaw.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n Brisket is cut from the lower chest or breast of beef. It\u2019s a tough cut of meat, as it contains the pectoral muscles. Because of this, brisket needs to cook for a long time in order to become the tender meat we enjoy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Untrimmed beef brisket is still one of the least expensive cuts of beef you can buy. When you order the brisket, ask your butcher for a whole piece, neatly shaped, and free of much of the excess fat that is usually found on the sides.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Here\u2019s a rundown of the ingredients you\u2019ll need to gather for Chipotle Beef Brisket. Scroll down for the full recipe with ingredient amounts!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n First, place all the ingredients listed before the brisket in a small food processor <\/a>and pulse until it becomes a paste. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Rub the paste all over every side of the brisket. <\/p>\n\n\n\n If you have time, leave the brisket in the fridge after applying the rub for anywhere from 30 minutes up to 24 hours. So, go ahead and prep everything the night before and get that meat ready to drop in the slow cooker first thing in the morning!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Next, mix the OJ, chicken broth, liquid smoke, and bay leaves at the slow cooker’s bottom. Place the brisket in the slow cooker, cover, and cook for 8-10 hours, depending on the size of your brisket (see the full recipe for details).<\/p>\n\n\n\n When the time is up, remove the brisket onto a foil-lined and sprayed baking sheet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Remove the bay leaves and larger fat chunks from the sauce leftovers in the slow cooker. Pour the sauce into a saucepan. Reduce it over medium heat until it becomes the consistency of syrup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Set the oven to broil. Baste the brisket with the reduced sauce. Broil it for a few minutes, baste again, and broil for a few more minutes until your brisket caramelizes. The broiling is technically optional, but I highly recommend it as that brisket crust is lovely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You can serve brisket however you\u2019d like, but here are a couple of ideas:<\/p>\n\n\n\n PRO TIP:<\/strong> If the meat is so tender that it falls apart when you try to cut it, try cutting it with a very sharp knife in one direction only, in a smooth, even stroke. Don’t run your knife back and forth. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n Brisket is cut from the lower chest or breast of beef. It\u2019s a tough cut of meat, as it contains the pectoral muscles. Because of this, brisket needs to cook for a long time in order to become the tender meat we enjoy.\u00a0 In short, yes, you can! Other cuts of meat such as beef chuck, pot roast, or even short ribs can be substituted for beef brisket in my Chipotle Beef Brisket recipe.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p> <\/div> For maximum flavor, marinade the brisket for anywhere from 30 minutes up to 24 hours. <\/p> <\/div> Chipotle peppers in adobo sauce are sold in most groceries store in the international aisle. You can also buy them online at Amazon<\/a>.<\/p> <\/div> Yes, follow the same instructions and pressure cook at high pressure for 75 minute and natural release for 15 minutes. Remove the lid carefully. <\/p> <\/div> <\/div>\n\n\n\n Store: <\/strong>Beef Brisket will keep well in the refrigerator in an airtight container for about four to five days. Reheat it wrapped in aluminum foil at a low oven temperature (300\u00b0F works) for 20-25 minutes or so.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Freeze: <\/strong>The brisket can be frozen for up to three months. You can wrap the whole thing in plastic wrap, then foil or a zip-top freezer bag before freezing, or you can freeze the slices individually by laying them out flat on a baking sheet and popping them in the freezer. Once they are frozen, put the frozen slices in a freezer bag or container and label them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n To reheat <\/strong>your brisket, pull it out of the freezer and place it in the refrigerator for 24 hours, then cover it tightly with foil and reheat in a 300\u00b0F oven until hot (at least 30 minutes).<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u2764\ufe0f Love what you see? <\/strong>Subscribe<\/strong><\/a> to Mommy\u2019s Home Cooking so you\u2019ll never miss a recipe!
