BBQ Beef Sandwich: Texas soul food.

The bbq beef sandwich is one of the easiest of smoked brisket recipes and for my money easily the most satisfying. Many brisket sandwiches contain: brisket barbecue sauce and bread. But, the real key is the addition of pickles and onions. And, to add insult to injury, a light coating of mayonnaise on the cheapestwhitest, unhealthiest bread you can find makes it ethereal...

Recipe:

For 1 sandwich

1 White hoagie roll, hamburger bun, or even white bread

melted margarine or butter

mayonnaise

4 oz. smoked beef brisket

Sliced white onions

Hamburger sliced pickles (must be neon green. no gourmet pickles here.)

BBQ Sauce

Assembly: Brush the roll with the butter and lightly toast on a griddle or in a skillet.

Remove and spread on mayonnaise (optional but good. I have heard from many fellow Texans that this is not authentic. No, it's not. But it is GOOD.)

Place a few slices of onion on the bread and 4-5 pickles. Top with the warm meat and your favorite sauce. Pickled jalapenos go swimmingly as an accompaniment!
