Indulge in a BBQ Brisket & Cheeseburger Salad, combining rich meats, gooey cheese, and a symphony of flavors for the ultimate comfort food experience.
Ingredients
- • Beef brisket: 1 lb
- • Ground beef: 1/2 lb
- • Cheddar cheese, shredded: 1 cup
- • Mozzarella cheese, shredded: 1 cup
- • Mixed salad greens: 6 cups
- • Cherry tomatoes, halved: 1 cup
- • Red onion, thinly sliced: 1/2 cup
- • Pickles, sliced: 1/2 cup
- • BBQ sauce: 1/2 cup
- • Ranch dressing: 1/2 cup
- • Olive oil: 1 tbsp
- • Salt and pepper: to taste
- • Garlic powder: 1 tsp
- • Paprika: 1 tsp
Instructions
- 1 Preheat your oven to 275°F (135°C).
- 2 Season the beef brisket generously with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and sear the brisket on all sides until browned, about 8-10 minutes.
- 3 Place the seared brisket in a roasting pan, cover with foil, and roast in the preheated oven for 3 hours, or until tender and easily shredded.
- 4 Meanwhile, form the ground beef into small patties and season with salt and pepper. Cook the patties in a skillet over medium heat until fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes per side. Remove and set aside.
- 5 Once the brisket is cooked, shred it with two forks and toss with the BBQ sauce.
- 6 On a large serving platter, arrange the mixed salad greens. Top with cherry tomatoes, red onion, and pickle slices.
- 7 Scatter the shredded brisket and crumbled cheeseburger patties over the salad. Sprinkle the cheddar and mozzarella cheese evenly across the top.
- 8 Drizzle with ranch dressing and additional BBQ sauce if desired. Serve immediately.
Serving Suggestions
- • This Decadent BBQ Brisket & Cheeseburger Salad pairs beautifully with a side of crispy garlic bread or a simple corn on the cob. Add a refreshing beverage like a cold iced tea or a craft beer to complement the rich flavors. For a perfect finishing touch, consider a light dessert such as lemon sorbet to cleanse the palate.
Storage Tips
Store any leftover salad components separately in airtight containers in the refrigerator. The brisket and cheeseburger can be reheated in a skillet over low heat until warmed through. To maintain the freshness of the greens, only assemble the salad when ready to serve.
