Cut the brisket into very fine pieces, using a microwave to heat it up for easier cutting.

Squish the cut brisket to make it almost like a paste.

On a cutting board, mix the brisket with onion powder, garlic powder, salt, black pepper, sriracha, and butter until it forms a paste.

Prepare cheese sticks by cutting them in half or into inch-sized pieces.

Wrap the brisket mixture around the cheese sticks, sealing the ends by squeezing.

Form the brisket mixture into balls, keeping the meat thin around the cheese to avoid overwhelming flavors.

Place the formed balls and sticks in the fridge for about 15 minutes to firm up.

Prepare the coating mixture by mixing 1 cup of flour with 4 eggs until well combined.

Coat the brisket sticks and balls by dredging them in flour, dipping in the egg mixture, and rolling in a mixture of 3 cups of panko crumbs and bread crumbs.

Preheat the deep fryer to 350°F and fry the brisket balls for 5 minutes until crispy and golden brown.
