BBQ Brisket Sandwich
We at Grace Baking can tend to be traditionalists, but on occasion we veer off the beaten track and create recipes that surprise even us. Take for example our Grace Baking Pretzel Hamburger Buns – tasty little hamburger buns with a healthy dose of pretzel flavoring and a terrific moist chewiness. As soon as we baked our very first one we set out to create a taste-bud terrific recipe that would do them justice. Enter the BBQ Brisket Sandwich. There’s never been a better place to stuff a slab of slow-cooked brisket, coleslaw and enough tasty bits of flavor to full a room with satisfied, smile-filled faces. When it comes to sandwiches this one is a real attention-getter. Whip up a few, stick em’ out on a ledge to cool and watch the neighbors suddenly discover their long-lost appreciation of your company. It’s a deli-cious experience.
