Saw this come up on my Facebook feed from The Switch BBQ joint in Dripping Springs, TX. Seems like this could be a decent way to use up some leftover brisket. Anybody ever tried something similar?

Honestly I'll eat almost anything in a roux. Sounds pretty good to me.

Sweet Jesus..brisket gumbo!!! Take that brisket and add it to a homemade corn chowder or use it to make okra gumbo (no roux please)..
The smoke flavor in any of those two will make you swear to always smoke/bbq a little extra for one of those dishes.

I don't know. Brisket is pretty fatty / oily. It seems like it may be a bit much in combo, which is already pretty rich.

I would try it though.

Is that potato salad swimming in it? No rice?

that looks great!

my grandparents would use left over bbq'd pork steaks and chicken to make "bbq gumbo". They would wipe off the bbq sauce due to it being oily/grease but the meat would keep the smoked flavor. One of my favorite gumbo's.

Yes,

Smoked a brisket and put a drip pan underneath to catch the drippings. strained it to keep the liquid then used the rendered fat along with a little more oil in the roux.

I found I didn't need to season the gumbo too much.

9/10 would do again.

My Maw Maw used to make a gumbo like this and sometimes add a little cabbage to it. Thanks for the reminder, I had totally forgotten how good this used to be.
