Ingredients

Scale

Meat & Main Ingredients

  • 3–4 lbs well-marbled beef brisket
  • 2–3 chipotle peppers in adobo sauce
  • 1 large onion, sliced
  • 3 garlic cloves
  • 1 cup beef broth
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Slider buns (soft and small), quantity as needed

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Brisket and Marinade: Trim any excess fat from the brisket and season generously with salt, pepper, and smoked paprika. In a blender, combine chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, garlic, brown sugar, and beef broth to create a flavorful marinade to pour over the brisket.
  2. Layer Ingredients in the Slow Cooker: Place sliced onions at the bottom of the slow cooker. Lay the brisket on top, then pour the chipotle marinade all over the meat to allow flavors to meld as it cooks.
  3. Slow Cook to Perfection: Cover and cook on low for 8 to 10 hours until the brisket is completely tender and easily shredded with a fork. Slow cooking is essential for perfect tenderness and flavor.
  4. Shred and Mix the Brisket: Remove the brisket from the slow cooker and shred it using two forks. Return the shredded meat to the slow cooker and stir it into the cooking juices to keep it moist and flavorful.
  5. Assemble the Sliders: Lightly toast the slider buns, then pile on a generous helping of the shredded chipotle brisket. Add optional toppings such as pickled jalapeños or coleslaw, then cap with the top bun and serve.

Notes

  • Choose flat-cut brisket with good marbling for best results.
  • Let the brisket rest for 10 minutes after cooking to lock in juices.
  • Taste the cooking liquid before adding extra chipotle to balance heat.
  • Use slow cooker liners for easier cleanup.
  • Lightly toast slider buns to prevent sogginess.
