I smoked a brisket for Thanksgiving and had some leftovers, so I decided to make a gumbo. I pretty much followed my standard C&S gumbo recipe and subbed beef broth for chicken stock, and obviously brisket for chicken. It came out really good and I may have to make this again.

For the meat, I used the less fatty meat from the flat. I cut the meat up into about 1 inch cubes and trimmed off excess fat as I didn't want it to render in the gumbo and make it super greasy. I tossed the brisket meat in for the last 30 minutes of simmering.

Anyone else try this? If so, did you do anything different?

Looks interesting. I have a few packs of smoked brisket in the freezer I’ve been saving to try and cook something like this. I was more going the stew route or maybe like a roast beef Po-boy sub with brisket. I like to experiment with stuff like this. Looks good, IWE.

Years ago I saw brisket gumbo on a menu in the northeast. I also say it had corn and peas in it. I passed and did not try it. I would eat a bowl of this stuff.

Interesting. I'd definitely try it if you offered me a bowl but any brisket I have left over is usually 6-8 slices of flat and that gets vacuum packed then eventually makes its way to tacos or nachos.

Looks great. Cochon used to (or maybe still does?) have a brisket and blackeyed pea gumbo on the menu. The peas were a nice, creamy addition to the bowl.

Would eat the shite out of that.

Blue Oak has had it as a special at least once. It was killer.

It’s damn good. If it’s not already smoked I’ll just cube it like you said and brown it.

Had an uncle start doing this last winter and it’s a huge hit.
