Main DishesSmoked Brisket Tacos
Smoked brisket tacos layer tender, bark-edged brisket slices into warm corn tortillas with pickled red onions, fresh cilantro, and a squeeze of lime. The brisket smokes low and slow at 225°F over oak or post oak wood for a deep smoke ring and meltingly soft texture. A quick salsa verde and fast-pickled onions pull the whole taco together in minutes once the brisket is rested.
