Brisket Chili

I love brisket but there is just too much meat to smoke for just me. Brisket chili is a great way to use 2 lbs of that 10 lbs brisket that you have to buy. Very different from a more traditional ground beef chili. Like my other chili recipes I do not add beans but that is always an option.

Cooking Instructions

5.5 hrs
  1. 1

    Combine all dry seasonings and set aside. Trim brisket to remove excess fat and cut into small bite size pieces. Dice vegetables.

  2. 2

    In a dutch oven cook the bacon until crispy. Remove cooked bacon to a plate but keep the bacon grease in the dutch oven. Break up bacon.

  3. 3

    Season brisket heavily with salt and pepper. Add brisket and sear the sides on medium high. Do in batches. Remove brisket to a plate.

  4. 4

    Add onion, bell pepper, and jalapeños to the dutch oven and cook on medium heat to soften. Add garlic and dry seasonings and cook for 30 seconds.

  5. 5

    Add in the bacon, brisket, beef stock, diced tomatoes, and Worcestershire sauce to the dutch oven. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 5 hrs with the lid on. Toward the end of the simmer break up the brisket by pushing down on the brisket with a potato masher or large spoon. Taste and adjust for salt and pepper. Add additional broth if needed.

  6. 6

    Serve in bowls and garnish with jalapeno coins and a sprinkle of shredded cheese. I usually like to serve with grilled garlic bread. Enjoy!

“Fenway” passed away on 2/3/2021. For the last year she tried to teach her husband of 42 years how to cook like her. Although I will never be as good of a cook as her she did pass on her passion for cooking. Therefore, I will attempt to carry on her legacy and maintain/update her site. My wife was a Registered Nurse, a licensed deep water aerobics instructor, a mother to our 2 children and a fantastic cook. We grew up in New England but have been fortunate to live all over the US. I am now retired, missing her terribly, but thankful for all the years we had together and all her cooking lessons.
