Cooking Steps
• Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. • Place slow-cooked beef brisket in a baking dish. • Pour liquid from packaging over the beef. Cover with foil and roast for 15 minutes. • Remove from oven. Uncover, then turn over beef. Roast, uncovered, until browned and heated through, 8-10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, roughly chop tomato. • Grate carrot. • Finely chop garlic and red onion. • Drain and rinse black beans. • In a small microwave-safe bowl, combine half the onion, the vinegar and a good pinch of sugar and salt. • Microwave onion for 30 second bursts, until softened.
• Crush tomato and pickled onion in a mortar and pestle and pound until your preferred consistency. • Add the brown sugar, a drizzle of olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper and stir to combine.
TIP: Add an extra drizzle more vinegar if this is to your taste! TIP: If you don't have a mortar and pestle, finely chop ingredients.
• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over high heat. Cook beans and the remaining onion, stirring, until tender, 3-5 minutes. • Add the butter, garlic and Tex-Mex spice blend (see ingredients) and cook until fragrant, 1 minute. • Remove from heat then lightly crush beans with a fork. Cover to keep warm.
• While beans are cooking, in a large bowl, combine mixed salad leaves, carrot and a drizzle of olive oil. Season to taste. • Microwave mini flourtortillas on a plate in 10-second bursts until warmed through.
• Shred beef brisket using two forks, then add the mild chipotle sauce, stirring to combine. • Fill tacos with salad, beef brisket and refried black beans. • Top with crushed tomato salsa and light sour cream to serve. Enjoy!

Review summary
Updated on Feb 2026- Flavour: Many enjoyed the brisket, but some found it bland or salty. The chipotle sauce was spicier than expected for some.
- Ease of prep: Several noted the recipe had many steps and was more complex than usual, though some still found it easy.
- Suggestions: Consider adding lime and coriander to boost the salsa's flavour. Drain pickled onions before crushing for a less vinegary taste.
- Portions: A few customers mentioned needing to purchase extra brisket as there wasn't quite enough in the box.
