Instructions
TO MAKE THE PULLED BRISKET:
- Instructions here.
TO MAKE THE BUTTERMILK BISCUITS:
- Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
- Add the flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt to the bowl of a food processor and pulse a few times to combine.
- Add the butter and pulse until it resembles coarse meal.
- Add the buttermilk and pulse just until combined. Do not over mix!
- Transfer the sticky dough to the counter (dusted with flour) and pat gently until it's 1/2" thick. (Do not use a rolling pin, as you don't want to over work the dough!)
- Fold the dough about 5 times and then gently press it until it's 1 inch thick.
- Using a 2 inch round biscuit cutter, cut the biscuits (pushing straight down through the dough, without twisting!) and place them in a baking sheet covered with parchment paper, about 1-inch apart.
- Gently knead the scraps together to make a few more, but be aware those won't be as flaky as the first ones!
- Bake for 10 to 12 minutes or until the biscuits are light golden brown! Be careful to not over bake!
TO MAKE THE PIMENTO CHEESE:
- Using a mixer, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Add the rest of the ingredients and beat until the desired consistency!
TO MAKE THE WHITE BBQ SAUCE:
- Combine all ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth. Add more mayo if you want a thicker consistency.
TO ASSEMBLE THE SANDWICHES:
- Cut the biscuits in 2. Fill them with a layer of pulled beef, pimento cheese and white BBQ sauce. Close them and serve!
