- 1 lb Brisket well-marbled for best results
- 1 cup Apple Juice with a splash of vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup Pure Maple Syrup

- 2 cups Shredded Cheddar Cheese sharp cheddar recommended

Instructions
- Place the brisket in a slow cooker. Pour in the apple juice and maple syrup. Cover and cook on low for 8 hours until the meat is tender and shreds easily.
- Once cooked, shred the brisket using two forks and set aside.
- Butter one side of each slice of bread. In a skillet over medium heat, place one slice butter-side down. Layer with cheddar, shredded brisket, more cheddar, then top with another bread slice butter-side up.
- Grill the sandwich on both sides until golden brown and the cheese has melted.
- Toast the waffles and use two of them to sandwich the grilled cheese, turning it into a wafflewich.
- Serve hot. Optional: drizzle with leftover brisket juices for extra flavor.
