\ud83d\udd25 Instructions:<\/h2>\n

1. Smoke the Brisket:<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Rub brisket generously with salt, pepper, and paprika.<\/p>\n

Smoke low and slow at 225\u00b0F (107\u00b0C) for 10\u201312 hours or until internal temp reaches 200\u00b0F (93\u00b0C).<\/p>\n

Rest wrapped in foil or butcher paper for 1 hour before slicing.<\/p>\n

2. Make the Hatch Green Chile Salsa:<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Blend roasted chiles, garlic, onion, lime juice, and salt until slightly chunky.<\/p>\n

Taste and adjust seasoning. Let sit for at least 30 minutes for flavors to meld.<\/p>\n

3. Assemble the Taco:<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Warm the flour tortilla.<\/p>\n

Spread a spoonful of green chile salsa on the base.<\/p>\n

Add a couple of slices of brisket.<\/p>\n

Top with crumbled cotija cheese.<\/p>\n

Drizzle with more salsa if desired.<\/p>\n

\ud83d\udca1 Pro Tips:<\/h3>\n

Use Hatch chiles at peak season (Aug\u2013Sept) or buy frozen fire-roasted ones for best flavor.<\/p>\n

Let the brisket rest fully<\/em> before slicing or it will dry out.<\/p>\n

Pair with pinto beans or grilled corn for a full meal.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
