Ingredients

  • 2 pounds Beef brisket
  • 1 tablespoon Smoked paprika
  • 1 tablespoon Garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon Onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon Black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 2 tablespoons Olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon Liquid smoke
  • 4 pieces Keto-friendly sandwich rolls
  • 1 cup Sugar-free BBQ sauce
  • 4 pieces Lettuce leaves
  • 8 pieces Sliced pickles
  • 4 slices Cheddar cheese slices

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the smoker to 225°F (107°C).

Step 2

In a small bowl, mix together the smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and salt.

Step 3

Rub the olive oil all over the brisket, then coat it with the spice mixture, ensuring it is well covered on all sides.

Step 4

Place the brisket in the smoker and cook for approximately 4-5 hours, or until the internal temperature reaches 190°F (88°C). Ensure you maintain the smoker temperature and add wood chips as needed according to your smoker's instructions.

Step 5

Once the brisket is done, remove it from the smoker, wrap it in foil, and let it rest for at least 30 minutes.

Step 6

While the brisket is resting, cut the keto-friendly sandwich rolls in half and lightly toast them in the oven or on a grill.

Step 7

Slice the brisket thinly against the grain. If desired, warm the slices in a pan with the sugar-free BBQ sauce.

Step 8

Assemble the sandwiches by placing a slice of cheddar cheese on the bottom half of each toasted keto sandwich roll, followed by a generous portion of sliced brisket.

Step 9

Add a leaf of lettuce, two slices of pickles, and drizzle more sugar-free BBQ sauce over the top.

Step 10

Place the top half of the sandwich roll on the fillings and serve immediately.
