DH wants to smoke a brisket for Father's Day. Already have the brisket lol. Contemplating sides to go with it. Planning on Pioneer Woman baked beans - Pioneer Woman baked beans (see, I know the rules) Some kind of corn bread - jalepeno cheddar style But what else? Just a large salad? Or some other veggie? Corn on the cob is not in season here yet so that's out. Thanks!! |

Colslaw if you are making it into sandwiches. Macaroni or potato salad if not.

I'm not that far from you, and we can get corn on the cob. It's probably imported, but still good.
How about chunks of tomato and cucumber and sliced red onion tossed with Greek/feta dressing? That's a favourite in our house.

Baked Sweet Potatoes topped with real butter, a little brown sugar and lots of cinnamon.
We also like Cole Slaw, but the greak salad posted above sounds yummy too.

I like a tangy (not sweet/creamy) coleslaw.

I’d go with something green and lighter since you are having baked beans and cornbread. The Greek salad someone mentioned above would be really good. We get some decent corn at our local grocery this time of year in Michigan, I think it’s from Florida.

Cole slaw and Texas sheet cake. That's what my Mom and Dad's usual is. Yum! |

Everyone in our family expects either baked beans or pinto beans as a side for brisket as well as cole slaw.

Sweet potatoes. Lately, we've been cutting them into steak fries, tossing in oil and garlic salt and air frying them. There's other seasonings out there for sweeter or spicier fries.

Mac Salad, Chili beans and garlic bread. A green salad if you you feel like you need something crisp.

My choice of a side would be Ina Garten's mac and cheese. It's not a healthy choice, but it's a delicious splurge.

In addition to a bunch of the sides that were listed, I do like some good applesauce with brisket. It’s almost a neutral, a cleanse your palate thing. Or better if it’s home made.
Plus roasted potatoes.

Cole slaw with BBQ.
Although I have always been a die hard creamy, mayonnaise based slaw fan (and DH is so not), I recently found a recipe for a spicy/zippy slaw that has finely chopped jalapeño peppers and a dressing made from ACV and honey with a bit of lime juice.
DH actually asks for this slaw now.
I'm thinking homemade ice cream would finish the meal perfectly.

Brisket around here is served with pinto beans, coleslaw and potato salad. And pickles and onions.

The BBQ place near us serves a delicious cucumber salad that's nice a light and crunchy to go with brisket. I also like coleslaw.

Brisket around here is served with pinto beans, coleslaw and potato salad. And pickles and onions. Same here. The only other side you see semi-frequently at BBQ restaurants is creamed corn, which DH loves. But it’s not specific to brisket. I love mashed potatoes so if I was making it at home in the winter/fall we might have some of those. But for a nice summer meal I’d choose coleslaw and potato salad. Y’all can keep those beans! |

I do brisket a lot for Shabbat.
I add oven baked fried rice, a green salad and a big plate of grilled vegetables. Dh does the vegetables in advance and I serve them at room temperature.
