beef brisket is to cook it low and slow to make it tender and i've got a delicious barbecue style recipe for dinner [Music] we're creating bbq style beef brisket with crunchy coleslaw and sweet potato wedges which will be right up her street holly now you love barbecues right so you're gonna help me barbecue this delicious piece of brisket brisket look at it beautiful it's a very tough cut of meat so it needs to be cooked slowly so it gets really nice and tender are we barbecuing it outside we're gonna actually put the barbecue flavor on there but we're gonna cook it in the oven okay so mustard powder okay here we have some celery seed next a little bit of salt in there okay what's this here cumin two again nice good now this one cayenne pepper absolutely right right two teaspoons of that in there as well good now what i want you to do fresh pepper on there i'll give that a little mix roll up your little sleeves and then i want you to rub all that spice into the brisket almost like you're massaging it in there good girl come on holes get your hands nice and flat on there good girl now that's nice and coated okay in the spice so gas on roasting tray on what we've got to do now with all those spices is sear them in a couple of tablespoons of olive oil into the tray well done okay good that's getting nice and hot now you get your brisket and all that spice lay that in there nicely okay so now we'll start coloring it as you start to sear in you smell those spices yep all that spice left on the plate we're gonna use yeah i want you to get the onions nice and carefully slice them down not too thin but just like you're chopping them take your time smell those spices now good girl thank you damn holly was homework that bad no the onions oh no don't rub your eyes don't rub your eyes [Music] we've got the colour on the brisket okay yeah take that out literally for 30 seconds okay onions into the tray please nice you see it's starting to smell slightly barbecuey already give that a little stir nice now one nice tablespoon of brown sugar what does the brown sugar do dad so the brown sugar we're gonna start caramelizing the onions right from there my bay leaves in please good girl oh yes please right you want to take over good careful that tray is very very hot a tablespoon of tomato puree roast that off at the bottom of the tray and really rub it in amongst the onions good girl now look at the colors onions right now time for a little drink for the brisket okay one bottle of earring please so you go in you put yours in there i'll put mine here god uh good health to you and your brisket good health bring that to the ball okay now this is where it gets really exciting i want you to lift the brisket up and put it on top of the onions in she goes good girl and then i want you to pour the stock all the way around please i'm using beef stock but it will work with chicken stock or even vegetable stock once the stock has come to the boil cover tightly with foil you just pinch in the ends flatten that down and then you just twist all the way so that's nice and tight that's the hard work done thank you simply pop it in the oven for three and a half hours and as it cooks you can get on with the side dishes first job sweet potato wedges with some serious flavor start by making a spice mix in a dry pan toast coriander seeds until beautifully aromatic then put them in a pestle and mortar add salt and grind [Music] next smoked paprika dried oregano cayenne pepper and mix spice mix done now simply cut your sweet potatoes into wedges toss in olive oil and thoroughly cover with the spice mix onto a baking tray and into a preheated oven for 30 minutes turning halfway irresistible sweet potato wedgies are ready now to finish off my beef see that smell just sort of travels everywhere oh now look at that so we can leave that to rest what does resting mean resting means where you've cooked a joint and you just leave it to relax so it'll make the meat so much more tender okay right coleslaw traditionally you would mix slaw with what mayonnaise that's right mayonnaise this time we're gonna do it a little different so i'd like you to put the yogurt into the bowl for me please all of it i'll start slicing the white cabbage and the red cabbage now from there a nice tablespoon of mustard in there please give that a nice mix up nice little touch of salt and pepper okay now a little cider vinegar so a little splash of cider vinegar in there okay as i shred this okay i'd like you please then to get the red cabbage and just open up into that and mix in at the same time and then you fold that in there as i start shredding see how it's coming together yeah right that's all the red cabbage now the white so you've got that nice vinegary tartness to the slaw and the yogurt keeps it nice and fresh last little bit in one more little thing so put some nice chopped fresh chives in there and that will give it this nice light onion flavor so chives in [Music] how's that now taste it with the chives in there delicious so i would like you to fill up the bowl i'm going to very carefully lift out my brisket how come is it shrunk it's been in the oven for nearly three and a half hours so it's been cooked slowly that sits on there oh my goodness me let me just show you what this looks like i'll start slicing it and see how soft look at that and
