Holy cow, Robyn! (pun intended) My neighbor has a smoker. Might have to go over there and borrow it to make this. Perfect autumn dinner.
This recipe is so right up my alley. Cuban-style black bean soup and Southern-style smoked beef brisket are local favorites where I live, and the idea of putting them together is brilliant. Fall is soup season for me, and I’m definitely bookmarking this to make soonest. Well done, Robyn!
I love the idea of smoked brisket with black beans. Now I only have to convince the hubs that I need one. 🙂
Someday . . . someday Robyn, The Professor and I will move near you and Amy, we’ll live in a Yankee Barn home on some acreage that we farm and you will make this for us – oh what a happy day that will be! Am marking this now because I AM making it sometime this winter!
Oh we’ll have a blast, won’t we?
Robyn….I am SO making this! That, or coming to live at your house…..either way.
Come on over. Just bring cookies!
Oh how I adore black bean soup but have never thought to put a brisket in it. Delicious!
What a hearty fall meal! Yum!
Our family loves to make smoked brisket… I’ve made it in the oven and my husband smokes it on the grill. I have never thought to turn it into soup! Love this recipe… especially as the wind is whipping outside and getting cooler. I’m anxious to try this. Have a great day!
Perfectly delicious in the soup. My family love it!
Robyn this looks so good. Perfect for a cold Michigan winter day! Thanks for sharing.
I’m assuming you have to add stock to make this a soup. I don’t see any liquid in recipe. It would seem more like a stew the way the recipe is written
Jay J, the one can of pureed beans plus the juice in the undrained cans of beans provide the liquid needed for this soup. I hope you enjoy!
oh yes.
so much yes 😉
delish!
