In just over six months since opening their doors, the shop has become a staple for Winnipeggers and visitors alike.<\/p>\n<p>Now, the Polishire bagel is being elevated even higher \u2013 when bagel meets brisket<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" fetchpriority=\"high\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-220945\" class=\"size-full wp-image-220945\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/canada\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/TheForgeBagel-Ironmaker-Chef.jpg\" alt=\"The Forge Bagel - Ironmaker Brisket Winnipeg\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\"  \/><\/p>\n<p id=\"caption-attachment-220945\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo courtesy of The Forge Bagel Co.<\/p>\n<p>Brisket isn\u2019t the most obvious move for a bagel shop but then again, The Forge has never been an ordinary bagel shop.<\/p>\n<p>The Ironmaker Brisket is far from your typical brisket sandwich although the ingredients may seem straightforward on paper. A Swiss &amp; Ale Polishire bagel (made with a locally brewed dark ale), Swiss cheese, house-made dijon a\u00efoli, horseradish, and layered with 18-hour slow-roasted Certified Angus AAA brisket. It arrives at the table with hot au jus for dipping and kettle cooked parmesan crisps for the finishing crunch.<\/p>\n<p>The Ironmaker Brisket is the result of the entire team at The Forge \u2014 Polishire Artisans and culinary team alike \u2014 working in step. Months of ideating, testing, and tweaking. But the story behind it goes deeper than the recipe. Certified Angus AAA Beef. Kitchen upgrades. A deliberate investment in ingredients and culinary expertise. And perhaps most notably, the development of an intentional process that produces tender, sliced brisket without relying on braising \u2014 all the benefit of carved, melt-in-your-mouth meat, achieved on their own terms. That kind of patience and precision doesn\u2019t happen overnight. And on the plate, it shows.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-220909\" class=\"size-full wp-image-220909\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/canada\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/TheForgeBagel-Brisket-Winnipeg.jpg\" alt=\"The Forge Bagel - Brisket Winnipeg\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\"  \/><\/p>\n<p id=\"caption-attachment-220909\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo courtesy of The Forge Bagel Co.<\/p>\n<p>Lunch, Foraged Differently<\/p>\n<p>Father-daughter duo Glen Demetrioff and Rachelle Furtado built The Forge Bagel Co. as a place for the whole family to love, and the Ironmaker Brisket is an evolution for those who are serious about lunch.<\/p>\n<p>The Ironmaker Brisket is part of The Forge\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theforgebagel.com\/open-face-collection\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">growing afternoon menu<\/a>.
