Fresh Vegetables: Lettuce, tomatoes, cucumbers, or peppers add a fresh crunch.

Tips for Making Honey Glazed Brisket Wraps

Choose Quality Brisket: Using a good quality cut will enhance the flavor and tenderness of your wraps.
Let it Rest: Allowing the brisket to rest after cooking helps retain more juices.
Warm Tortillas: Warm tortillas in a skillet or microwave before wrapping to make them more pliable and less likely to tear.

Make-Ahead Instructions

You can glaze the brisket and cut it into slices one day before and keep it refrigerated in an airtight container.
Prepare the vegetables and store them separately for fresh crunch when ready to serve.
Assemble the wraps just before serving for the best taste and texture.

Storing Leftovers

Store leftover brisket wraps in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. However, the wraps are best enjoyed fresh and may become soggy over time.

Freezing Honey Glazed Brisket Wraps

If you wish to freeze the wraps, do so without any fresh vegetables or sauces which can become mushy.
Wrap the brisket tightly in plastic wrap and then foil to prevent freezer burn.
When stored properly, they can last up to 3 months in the freezer.

Reheating Honey Glazed Brisket Wraps

Defrost frozen wraps in the refrigerator overnight.
Reheat in the microwave or on a skillet until heated through. Consider adding a little extra honey glaze while reheating for moisture.
