– 1 tbsp sugar (balances the acidity in the pickling liquid)
– 12 slider buns (toasted lightly for extra crunch)
– Salt and pepper (adjust to taste for seasoning the brisket)
Instructions
1. Preheat your oven to 300°F for slow cooking the brisket to perfection.
2. Season the brisket generously with salt and pepper on all sides.
3. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and sear the brisket for 3-4 minutes per side until a crust forms.
4. Transfer the brisket to a baking dish, cover with BBQ sauce, and wrap tightly with foil.
5. Bake for 3 hours until the brisket is fork-tender. Tip: Check at the 2.5-hour mark to avoid overcooking.
6. While the brisket cooks, combine apple cider vinegar, sugar, and a pinch of salt in a bowl. Add sliced onions and let sit for at least 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. Tip: For quicker pickling, warm the vinegar mixture slightly before adding onions.
7. Once the brisket is done, let it rest for 10 minutes before shredding with two forks. Tip: Save the juices to mix back into the meat for extra moisture.
8. Toast the slider buns lightly for a crisp texture.
9. Assemble sliders by piling shredded brisket on each bun and topping with pickled onions.
Zesty and bold, these sliders bring a perfect balance of smoky, sweet, and tangy flavors. Serve them with extra pickled onions on the side for an added crunch.
