Texas BBQ

While we lived in Waco, Texas, back in 1983, our friends, Tom & Gloria, used to cook us real Texas BBQ. This was well before the Texas BBQ revolution.

There are many different ways to cook great Texas BBQ, dry rubbed or slow cooking a well marinated piece of meat. I love both ways

The method we remember from our days in Texas is to marinate the meat and slow cook.

Recipe

Use approx 5kg of beef brisket, or fresh silverside. Ask to butcher to remove most of the fat
1 bottle of Terriyaki sauce
1 bottle of hickory flavour BBQ sauce (we used Bulls eye sauce)
1 jar jalapeños
12 large mushrooms (sliced)
2 large onions (sliced)
6-8 tomatoes (sliced)

Method

Wrap the meat in 3 layers of foil
Before sealing the foil add 1/2 bottle of Terriyaki Sauce, 1/4 bottle of Smoky BBQ sauce, 1/2 bottle of jalapeños, the mushrooms, tomatoes & onion.
Seal well in foil.
Put in baking dish and slow cook (150 degrees C) for 4 hours - or better still, in a covered BBQ or pizza oven

After 4 hours, open the foil and slice the meat into approx 1 inch slices (don't cut all the way through the meat). Open these pockets and fill with 1/2 bottle of the Smoky BBQ sauce and push in the cooked mushroom, onion, jalapeño and tomato mixture.Baste with the juices of the BBQ

Cook open for another hour, basting regularly
