Holy Cow, this was soooooo good! Unfortunately, I didn’t think to take a picture until we had scarfed it all down, but this is pretty close.
It was super quick and easy to make (less than 10 minutes total work tonight), but it does require some advance planning. I like this as part of “Save-a-step cooking” which is where you plan the leftovers as part of another meal. So, last night we made a brisket (slow cooked in a Dutch oven at 205 degrees for seven or eight hours, marinated and cooked in red wine – YUM!). And tonight, we used the leftover brisket for these tacos. Another thing you need to have in advance is the Mango Chutney. It’s a lacto-fermented recipe from Nourishing Traditions and it’s one of my favorite things!
So, you have to have mango salsa, brie, BBQ sauce, and leftover brisket. As long as you have these things, then it’s just an issue of assembly and it takes just a few minutes to make dinner.
Here’s the recipe:
Brie Soft Tacos with BBQ Sauce and Mango Chutney
Tacos loaded with shredded brisket, brie, BBQ sauce, and lacto-fermented mango chutney.
Ingredients
- leftover brisket (we love it slow cooked 205 degrees for 7 or 8 hrs, marinated and cooked in red white, garlic, salt and pepper)
- your fav Barbecue Sauce (we love the Sassy recipe from the Weber’s Real Grilling cookbook)
- Lacto-fermented mango chutney (from Nourishing Traditions)
- Tortillas (taco-size)
- 8 oz brie, thinly sliced
- butter, to warm up the tortillas
Instructions
- To assemble the tacos: Heat a griddle or large pan over medium-high.
- Heat up the brisket, then transfer to a bowl.
- Add some butter to the pan. Lay out the tortillas in the pan. Once warm, add the brie slices in a line down the middle.
- Then add brisket, BBQ sauce, and the mango chutney (all down the middle). The bottom should be a tiny bit browned and crispy.
- Fold over and place on a plate in a warmed oven while you make the rest.
- Sit down with your family while they sing your praises for this most delicious dinner!
I HIGHLY recommend you try this. If you do, leave me a comment and let me know how it goes.
