- 3 pounds brisket

- 2 tablespoons cumin
- 1 tablespoon chili powder
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 9 ounces barbecue sauce
- 2 tablespoons hot sauce
- 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
- 1 cup water

- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon paprika
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 cup flour
- oil for frying
Slaw
- 2 cups shredded cabbage
- 1/4 cup mayo to taste
- 1 tablespoon hot sauce
Burgers
- 4 burger buns
- 1 1/2 pounds ground beef
- salt and pepper
- 8 slices cheddar cheese
- barbecue sauce
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 275
- Mix the salt, pepper, cumin, chili powder, and cinnamon in a bowl. In a large baking dish, coat the brisket with the spice mixture. in the same bowl, mix the barbecue sauce, hot sauce, vinegar, and water and pour it over the brisket.
- Bake the brisket for about 6 hours until it reaches an internal temp of 195 and is very tender but not quite falling apart. Flip it over and baste it with the juices a few times during cooking, and add a little water if it seems too dry. Allow to cool for 20 minutes before slicing.
- Toss the onion slices in a bowl with the salt and allow them to sit for 5 to 10 minutes as the salt brings some juices out of the onion.
- Add the spices and flour to the onion and toss until the flour is coating the onions.
- Heat a thin layer of oil in a large frying pan and add in some of the onions, being careful not to overcrowd the pan. Cook about 5 minutes stirring a few times until brown. Remove from pan on to a paper towel lined plate.
- Mix all the slaw ingredients and season with salt and pepper.
- Toast the burger buns.
- Form the beef into 3 oz thin patties with a slightly larger radius than the buns to allow for shrinkage. Grill the burgers a few minutes on each side to brown and cook to a medium doneness. Add the cheese to each patty after flipping.
- Build the burger starting with the bottom bun, some barbecue sauce sauce, 3 slices of brisket, more sauce, two burger patties, more sauce, the slaw, onions straws, and a little more sauce on top. Add the top bun and serve.
