I need to give a shout out to our good friend Zach (
Misplaced Nebraskan
) on this one. Last weekend I posted my father's day breakfast and somehow he managed to read "brisket" into "breakfast" and was totally unprepared for the actual content of the post. If that title messed him up I hate to think what "brisket" and "biscuit" is gonna do to him
This one has a lot of steps hence quite a few pics. The history as far as I know of the biscuit bombs started with John ( chilerelleno ) and was then done by another John ( SmokinVOLfan ) both using pulled pork. Right after TN posted his I did an Italian themed version of them that came out amazing but I didn't post it. Would have been two very similar posts (his and mine) out there at the same time so the pics have just stayed in a folder on the desktop.
Start by getting the leftover brisket out of the freezer and defrosting it
Cut up some onions and green bell peppers
Slice up some brisket
Chop it all up
Put the veggies on the grill after adding a bit of EVOO and some of my beef rub
When the veggies are lightly softened it's time to start putting the biscuits together. Roll out the biscuits and add fresh shredded mozz
Veggies
Brisket
Roll it all up and tuck the bottom together to seal it. One bomb done
Only had room in the skillet for seven of these monsters
Onto the grill brushed with egg wash. Cover with the pizza dome and let the magic begin
All done. These look pretty good
Plated with some chips and a pickle
Cut away view
Close up cut away view of my second one. You can see the cheese a bit better here
All in all I'd say this was a successful endeavor. These were fun, interesting, different, and unbelievably tasty. Something about the flavor from the smoky brisket steaming inside of the biscuit was just off the charts. I didn't quite get the ooey gooey cheesiness that I was hoping for but that was only from a visual standpoint. It was there from a flavor and textural perspective for sure. Couple that melted cheese and the fresh veggies with the brisket and it was a home run in my book. Tracy has asked that these get done on a more regular basis. She loves brisket tacos with the leftovers but she actually preferred this over a basic taco, and I had to agree.
Thanks for dropping in and we'll see y'all on the next one.
