BBQ Brisket Recipe | NIKU Customer Recipe

May 19, 2021

We love it when you share recipes and pictures of your NIKU Farms home creations with us! This quick and easy pulled pork recipe was submitted to us by @little.blue.dish on Instagram using a NIKU Farms 100% grass-finished brisket. It looks so incredibly tender and full of flavour!

Using an instant pot or slow cooker, their recipe is easy to make and ready after mixing the spices and setting them aside for 70 minutes to cook. Check out the post and give it a try.

Add the following into the instant pot and mix together to create the sauce: 

• 1/2 cup water (or bone broth) 
• 3 Garlic cloves minced
• 1 tbsp molasses
• 1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce
• 1 tbsp Apple cider vinegar
• 1 or 2 tbsp mustard
• 1/4 cup tomato paste or just ketchup
• 1/2 tsp chili powder
• 1/2 tsp cayenne powder
• 1 tsp cumin
• 1 tbsp maple syrup
• A pinch of salt and pepper

Place the beef brisket into the pot fat side up (a 3-pound, grass-fed brisket is best), and spoon some of the sauce over it to moisten.

Close the lid, and pressure cook for 70 minutes (then let it release for 10 minutes before turning the valve to vent).

Shred the meat using a fork, then sauté the meat and sauce in the instant pot until the barbecue sauce thickens. Then you’re left with the ultimate comfort food!

Serve with mashed potatoes, black beans, or rice as a side dish, or place the brisket on a sandwich!
