Serving Size: Serves 6
Ingredients:
- 3 pounds beef brisket
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon smoked paprika
- 1 tablespoon garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon chili flakes
- 1 red bell pepper, chopped
- 1 zucchini, sliced into half-moons
- 1 yellow squash, sliced into half-moons
- 1 red onion, quartered
- 2 cups baby carrots
- 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme, chopped
Directions:
- Preheat grill to medium-high heat, about 375°F (190°C).
- In a small bowl, combine smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, salt, and chili flakes to make a dry rub.
- Rub the brisket evenly with olive oil, then coat it with the dry rub mixture. Let it rest at room temperature for 20 minutes.
- In a large bowl, toss the chopped bell pepper, zucchini, yellow squash, red onion, and baby carrots with olive oil, balsamic vinegar, rosemary, thyme, salt, and pepper.
- Place the brisket on the grill and sear for 5-7 minutes per side until nicely browned.
- Reduce heat to medium or move brisket to indirect heat and cover grill. Cook for 1.5 to 2 hours, flipping halfway, until internal temperature reaches 195°F (90°C) and meat is tender.
- While the brisket cooks, spread the vegetables on a grill-safe pan or foil and grill for 15-20 minutes, turning occasionally, until vegetables are tender and slightly charred.
- Remove brisket from grill and let rest for 15 minutes before slicing against the grain.
- Serve sliced brisket alongside the grilled vegetables.
