Barbecue Benedict
Ingredients
- 1 white onion cut into 1/2-inch-thick strips
- Onion Marinade
- Barbecue Benedict Sauce
- 3 English muffins cut in half
- 1 pound leftover beef brisket
- 6 poached eggs
- Onion Marinade:
- 9 tablespoons soy sauce
- 3 tablespoons lemon juice
- 6 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 6 tablespoons water
- 6 teaspoons dark brown sugar
- 3/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 3/4 teaspoon black pepper
- Barbecue Benedict Sauce:
- 3 egg yolks
- 1 teaspoon vinegar
- 1 teaspoon water
- 1 cup butter, melted
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- Pinch of cayenne pepper

Preparation
- In small bowl, mix onion marinade ingredients. Pour marinade into resealable plastic bag and add onion strips. Let marinate for 30 minutes.
- For sauce, place egg yolks, vinegar and water into stainless steel bowl and vigorously whip until mixture is thickened and doubled in volume. Place bowl over sauce pan containing barely simmering water (just below boil), making sure bottom of bowl does not touch water. Whisk continuously, making sure eggs don’t get too hot or they will scramble. Very slowly drizzle melted butter into mixture while whisking rapidly until mixture thickens and doubles in volume. Remove from heat and stir in remaining sauce ingredients.
- Build charcoal fire for direct grilling. Place onion strips in grill basket and cook directly over hot coals (approximately 450°F), stirring often for 5 minutes or until onions brown and start to soften. Remove onions from grill and set aside.
- Place English muffin halves directly over hot coals for 2 minutes or until toasted. Remove each from grill and top with leftover beef brisket, grilled onions and a poached egg. Drizzle with Barbecue Benedict Sauce.
