Street food reflects the culture and flavours of the people it is borne from — think Spanish empanadas, Vietnamese pho, Mexican tacos, and not to be outdone; the Aussie pie floater. Nobody said street food has to stay on the street though. The casual nature of street food is suited perfectly to bar snacks, shared plates or lunch and canapé menus — basically anywhere people want to eat addictively good food.

Slow Cooked BBQ Brisket on a Crusty Roll with Slaw Recipe by : C R A I G V E I G E L > ANZ Stadium - Olympic Park, NSW _ MA KE S 10 P O RTI O N S : $2.50 p e r p o r tio n ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------2kg point end brisket, deckle off / 10 long crusty rolls Marinade 1 cup tomato sauce / 4 tbs brown sugar / 4 tbs Worcestershire sauce 1-2 dash Tabasco / 1/2 tsp mustard powder / 1/2 tsp salt 2 tbs liquid smoke Hickory seasoning Coleslaw 1/4 green cabbage, small, shredded / 1/2 Spanish onion, small, finely sliced 1/4 bunch chives, chopped / 1/4 cup mayonnaise, whole egg 1/2 carrot, shredded / 1/2 stick celery, finely sliced / salt & pepper > Combine everything except chives. Set aside.

The cooking liquid can be used to enhance the remaining marinade to create the sauce for the brisket. Strain the cooking liquid, remove the fat and add to the marinade till the desired consistency is achieved. You can skip this and just use the retained marinade if you wish.

PREPARE MARINADE Combine marinade ingredients in a small saucepan and bring to a gentle simmer. Cook for a few minutes. Set aside to cool. Use 2/3rd of the marinade on the brisket and leave for as long as possible, overnight is ideal. Place beef and all the marinade into a baking tray and cover with foil. Cook at 140°C for approx. 2 1/2 – 3 hours, till tender, removing the foil for the last 20mins.

Coat the sliced or pulled brisket with this sauce. Reheat when required and serve in the crusty roll topped with the coleslaw.

Remove the brisket from the tray to cool and reserve the cooking liquid. While warm you can ‘pull’ the brisket to shred it or allow to cool and finely slice, depending on your desired texture.

Season to taste and garnish with chopped chives.◊
