    Transfer brisket to cutting board; let stand 10 minutes. Discard sauce, or heat as directed in tip. Heat tortilla bowls as directed on package. Thinly slice brisket into small slices to fit into tortilla bowls; divide among warmed bowls, and top with coleslaw. Garnish with sliced jalapeños.

Expert Tips

  • Tip 1
    Short of time? Use prepared coleslaw to top these boats.
  • Tip 2
    Texas brisket is typically served dry, but if a sauce is desired, take remaining liquid from slow cooker after beef is removed, and skim off the fat. In 2-quart saucepan, cook liquid over high heat until reduced to sauce consistency.
