Chipotle Lime Brisket Sandwich with Sauteed Brussels Sprouts and Modelo Cheese Sauce

I know it’s a mouthful.
Brisket Sandwich with Modelo Cheese Sauce | Dixie Chik CooksBut, OH.MY.WORD.

This thing is crazy. Crazy as in good crazy.

I used already cooked and Farm Rich Pulled Beef Brisket , but just altered the flavor a bit. It’s already in a sweet and smoky BBQ sauce, which is perfect for sandwiches or salads, but I have to go and make things complicated.

What can I say? That’s my style. I added chipotle peppers and lots of lime juice before reheating it to give it a kick.

So, let’s talk about that cheese sauce.

If I haven’t, I’ll go ahead and tell you now. They were meant to be married. This cheese sauce is off the charts amazing. Why Modelo? Well, that’s because my brother left one in my fridge and I felt the need to experiment. That’s basically what happened.

And it worked.

Like a beautiful, delicious little charm.
