I got these brisket strips, about an inch or two thick. Look like steaks.
Have no idea what to do with them?
Any suggestions.

Never heard of brisket strips.........I'd suppose all you can do is smoke it or it'll be tough as boot leather.

If you're talking leftover cooked brisket slices then try this. I recently had the same thing and made carne asada. Basically, a beef taco of sorts, except since you're dealing with cooked beef, you need to cook down the chopped up strips in the marinade in a skillet. Basically until the beef starts to stick to the skillet. Then, serve it on corn or flour tortillas with a sour cream, white onion and minced cilantro dressing. Simple and quite delicious!

This.

Dump them in the crockpot with your favorite taco seasoning mix and a bottle of XX Amber. Serve on fresh tortillas with queso fresco.

I looked in my photos because I always take a pic of what I've cooked for my personal recipe book, however, since I kind of threw this together at the last minute, no pic!

The chopped bits of brisket were about quarter size, browned and tender from the glaze the marinade developed. I tossed in some chopped fine onions to cook down and a tiny bit of minced garlic at the end till just tender.

The marinade I used follows and I was using about a pound and a half of cooked brisket.

Sauté pre cooked meat in 2 tbsp good tequila, 2 tbsp olive oil, 1 large lime - juiced, 1/2 bunch cilantro, 2 tbsp soy sauce, 2 tbsp apple cider vinegar, tbsp Reese's cane syrup, After a few minutes add 1/2 small onion chopped fine, 1/2 tsp oregano or marjoram, a splash of OJ, 1/4 minced Serrano or Anaheim pepper (optional and can use a pinch of crush pepper if not available or small jalapeño, seeded), tbsp mince garlic, big pinch of black and white pepper, chile powder, cumin and smoked paprika (to taste).

No pics and they are raw. i attempted to smoke them last night. They were tough as expected but still had really good flavor and smelled great.
They literally looked like ny strip steaks, about 8" long, 3" wide and 2" thick.
I've never seen brisket like that, but it was $9 for 6 of those strips so i figured i'd give it a try.

If i see them again i'll try some tacos and report back. I think the crock pot is the only way to do these little strips.

Next time, make chili. Brisket, braised, is delicious. It loves a wet cook. So make your fave chili and put the strips into it; simmer, partially covered, until the brisket is tender. You can cut it into smaller chunks beforehand, or you can roughly chop it after it is cooked. Add beans once the meat is tender, if so inclined.

Would also be excellent in a beef/veg stew. Reserve some uncooked veg to add to the pot after meat is tender, or you will end up with veg mush and meat.

I like the chili idea. Might make a green chile this weekend with brisket instead of pork. Nom nom.
