Directions
| Step 1 | Place the meat into a covered roasting tray or cast iron casserole dish. Mix the barbecue sauce with the apple juice (or cider) and pour it over the meat. Cover and cook on low 3 hours at 150C/300F/Gas mark 2. Alternatively, cook in a slow cooker for 4 to 6 hours. When the meat is cooked, shred it with two forks and serve it in wraps. |
| Step 2 | Make the cucumber sauce; combine all the ingredients together, except the salt which you can add JUST before serving. Place into a serving bowl to serve with the wraps. |
| Step 3 | To serve: heat the wraps in a warm oven wrapped in tinfoil, (allow 1 wrap per child and 2 wraps per adult) then put the tomatoes, spring onions, lettuce and cheese on a serving platter or in small bowls - allow the diners to assemble the wraps themselves by putting the lettuce, tomatoes and spring onions on top of a warm wrap and then adding the pulled BBQ brisket - top with cheese and yoghurt sauce and roll up to eat. |
