2Sheet Pan Bibimbap
LUCY SCHAEFFER PHOTOGRAPHYIn Korean, bibimbap literally means mixed rice. You'll often see it filled with all different types of meats, vegetables, and toppings. Though people will typically cook or prepare each individual item that will be placed on their own bowl of fluffy white rice, by using a sheet tray and subbing for leftover brisket, you can eliminate more than half that work.

5Steak Grain Bowls
A double-purpose chimichurri acts as a marinade for the steak (or leftover brisket!) and as a finishing sauce for these grain bowls. The not-too-spicy jalapeño sauce provides a tangy, creamy counterpoint to it—you might just want to put this combo on everything from here on out.
