Silky Gulf Coast Smoked Brisket

Method

1. Start by prepping your olive oil, garlic, smoked paprika so the cooking goes quickly.
2. Set a wide pan over medium heat and sweat the leeks in a little butter until translucent.
3. Turn the heat up, add the smoked brisket, and cook until deeply browned and aromatic.
4. Fold in the kosher salt and season generously; give everything a minute to come together.
5. Taste and adjust, then finish with cracked black pepper right before serving.
6. Serve warm, ideally with something to soak up the sauce.
