Recipe Directions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a medium saucepan, heat the sliced brisket and barbecue sauce over medium heat until heated through, stirring occasionally.
- Meanwhile, spread butter on one side of each slice of bread.
- Place four slices of bread, buttered side down, on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or aluminum foil.
- Top each slice of bread with a slice of provolone cheese.
- Spoon the heated brisket and barbecue sauce mixture evenly over the cheese-topped bread slices.
- Place the remaining four slices of bread on top of the brisket mixture, buttered side up.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the bread is toasted and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Remove the BBQ Brisket Melts from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes before serving.
Kitchen Equipment Needed
To make BBQ Brisket Melts, you’ll need the following kitchen equipment:
- Medium saucepan
- Baking sheet
- Parchment paper or aluminum foil
Leftover Storage
If you have any leftover BBQ Brisket Melts (though it’s unlikely!), store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. To reheat, simply place them on a baking sheet and warm them in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 5 to 7 minutes, or until heated through.
Serving Suggestions
BBQ Brisket Melts are delicious on their own, but you can elevate the experience by serving them with a variety of accompaniments. Pair them with coleslaw and pickles for a classic barbecue meal, or serve them alongside a crisp green salad for a lighter option. Don’t forget the extra barbecue sauce for dipping!
