Crispy Fried Brisket Jerky Recipe (In Description)

Recipe: Servings: 4 people Prep: 15 minutes Marinate: 8+ hours Cook: 6 hours Ingredients: Brisket: 1 Whole Brisket Point (ideally 4-5 lbs), semi frozen Beef Tallow, as needed Sesame Seeds, garnish Chopped Chives, garnish Marinade 2 cups of Soy Sauce ½ cup Cowboy Butter Rub 2 tbsp Sriracha Sauce 2 tbsp Brown Sugar 1 tbsp Red Chili Flakes 1 tsp Curing Salt #1 Instructions If thawed, place your brisket in the freezer for 45-60 minutes to firm. Trim as much fat as you can, then slice your brisket into ¼” strips against the grain to make jerky slices. In a bowl, mix together the marinade. Add the brisket to the sauce, mix together and place into the fridge. Let marinate for at least 6 hours but ideally 12-24 hours. Make sure to stir every 4-8 hours so that it gets evenly marinated. When the marinating is done, pull the brisket out and discard the excess marinade. Place the slices on a baking sheet evenly and set in the fridge. Preheat your smoke for 165-185F. Add some wood chips or wood chunks for added smoke flavor. Pull your brisket out of the fridge and let sit at room temperature for 15 minutes. Place into the smoker and cook for about 5-6 hours until they have become browned, caramelized and at least 150F internal. Once done, pull the brisket out and let cool for 5 minutes. Heat up some beef tallow to 350F and add the brisket in small batches to fry for 1-2 minutes until fully crispy. Pull off and let cool. Garnish with scallions and sesame seeds. Serve and enjoy!
