-
Prep the Brisket: Season the brisket generously with salt and pepper. Preheat your Weber BBQ to a low and slow temperature of around 225°F (107°C) using indirect heat.
-
Sear the Brisket: Place the brisket on the grill and sear it on both sides until it develops a beautiful crust. This step is crucial for locking in those smoky flavors.
-
Slow Cook with Stout: In a cast-iron Dutch oven or a foil pan, combine the seared brisket, sliced onions, minced garlic, diced carrots, and chopped celery. Pour the stout over the mixture, and sprinkle with thyme.
-
Indirect Cooking: Place the Dutch oven or foil pan on the grill over indirect heat. Close the lid and let the magic happen. The brisket should cook for several hours, absorbing the deep, rich flavors of the stout.
-
Keep the Fire Steady: Throughout the cooking process, maintain a consistent temperature by adjusting the Weber's vents.
-
Test for Doneness: The brisket is ready when it's tender enough to pull apart with a fork. This could take anywhere from 4 to 6 hours, depending on the size and thickness of the meat.
-
Shred the Brisket: Once your brisket is tender, remove it from the grill and shred it into small, delectable pieces.
-
Prepare the Pie: Line a pie dish with one of the pie crusts. Add the shredded brisket and the cooked veggies, then pour the flavorful stout broth over the filling.
-
Cover and Bake: Top your pie with the remaining pie crust, crimping the edges to seal it. Make a few slits on the top crust to allow steam to escape. Place the pie on the Weber BBQ, which should still be at a low temperature, and bake until the crust is golden brown.
-
Serve and Enjoy: Let the pie cool for a few minutes, then slice and savor the mouthwatering flavors of your Brisket & Stout Pie. Pair it with a side of creamy mashed potatoes and a fresh green salad for the perfect BBQ feast.
