Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 12 lasagna noodles (uncooked)
  • 1 pound smoked beef brisket (chopped)
  • 2 cups ricotta cheese
  • 1 egg
  • 1 cup barbecue sauce
  • 2 cups extra-sharp cheddar cheese (shredded)
  • 2 cups mozzarella cheese (shredded)
  • Smoked mozzarella ((optional))

Instruction

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Cook the lasagna noodles per package instructions, drain and rinse the noodles with cold water. DO NOT SALT THE PASTA WATER.
  • Chop the brisket with a meat cleaver into bite-sized bits.
  • Lightly beat the egg with a fork, then combine with the ricotta cheese.
  • Spread about ¼ cup of the bbq sauce on the bottom of a 9x12 casserole dish. Place three of the lasagna noodles on top of the sauce. Layer the noodles with ⅓ of the cheeses and ¼ cup of the chopped meat. Drizzle with some of the sauce. Repeat two more times, and finish with noodles topped with the cheese meat and bbq sauce.
  • Cover with foil and bake for 45 minutes, then uncover and bake an additional 15 minutes until cheeses are melted and golden brown.
  • Remove the lasagna from the oven and allow it to cool and rest for at least 15 minutes before serving.
  • Serve with extra barbecue sauce on the side.
