Tujague's Brisket Po' Boy Sandwich image

Tujague's Restaurant (pronounced two-jacks) is the second oldest in New Orleans. Tujague's is over 150 years old, but its food is still fresh and interesting.This brisket recipe is one of the best you'll ever try, and I know people who go to NOLA just for this sandwich. I'm delighted that they shared this recipe!
