Chopped chipotles and adobo sauce add a delicious smokiness to this barbecue recipe. For more heat, add a few more peppers; for less, skip the peppers and just use the sauce. Cook time is 6 hours and 15 minutes.

Ingredients

• 1 8-oz can tomato sauce
• 1/4 cup molasses
• 2 Tbsp cider vinegar
• 2 Tbsp brown sugar
• 1 Tbsp chopped chipotles in adobo plus 2 tsp adobo sauce
• 2 tsp chili powder
• Kosher salt and pepper
• 2 red onions, sliced
• 2 cloves garlic, chopped
• 2 1/2 lb beef brisket, trimmed of excess fat
• 6 rolls
• Coleslaw, pickles and potato chips, for serving

Preparation

Step 1

1. In a 5- to 6-qt slow cooker, combine the tomato sauce, molasses, vinegar, brown sugar, chipotles, adobo sauce, chili powder, 1/2 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp pepper; mix in onions and garlic.

2. Cut the beef crosswise into 3 pieces and add it to the slow cooker, nestling it among the onions. Cook, covered, until the meat is tender and easily pulls apart, on low for 7 to 8 hours or on high for 5 to 6 hours.

3. Using 2 forks, shred the beef, then stir it into the cooking liquid and onions. Serve on the rolls with coleslaw, pickles and chips, if desired
