Easy and delicious beef brisket and bourbon barcecue sauce. Perfect for tailgates, backyard parties and cook offs!
Whew, it’s Friday! Has it been a week or what? Well, I have an amazing recipe to share with you today! The most delicious, easy beef brisket recipe plus my super easy homemade Brown Sugar Bourbon Barbecue Sauce. After trying this delicious barbecue sauce, trust me! You will never buy barbecue sauce from the store again! It’s smokey, sweet and savory all at the same time, and so easy to make!
I have to give a quick shout out to my husband. He and I tag teamed these recipes – he put together the brisket and I owned the barbecue sauce. We wanted these recipes to be really easy, and relatively hands-off.
Beef brisket reminds me of tailgating at football games, and that’s exactly what I was imagining as we pulled these recipes together! So with that in mind we thought up recipes that could be made in advance, be easily transported, and would taste incredible on a fall day.
Now let’s talk flavor! Because we all know that good, strong flavor is the cornerstone of both a good brisket and a good barbecue sauce! Since both the brisket and the barbecue sauce feature the same major flavors, (Brown Sugar Bourbon, worcestershire sauce, and garlic) they compliment each other so well. I love that the brisket itself leans toward the savory side, and the sauce slightly favors the sweet side thanks to the molasses and brown sugar. They are such a delicious combination when paired!
One of the flavors I especially want to call out is from the Brown Sugar Bourbon. It is soooo good! I love a splash of it in my coffee on the weekends! You might also remember it from my Pina Colada Cake and Mint Julep Cupcakes. Grab a bottle and cook through all of these recipes with me – more to come! (hint hint, it might involve pumpkin spice!!!)
