Preheat the oven to 300°F (150°C).
In a large oven-safe pot or Dutch oven, heat olive oil over medium-high heat.
Season the brisket with salt and black pepper. Sear the brisket in the pot for about 4 minutes on each side until browned. Remove the brisket and set aside.
In the same pot, add the onions and garlic. Sauté for about 3 minutes until onion is translucent.
Stir in the chipotle peppers, cumin, and smoked paprika. Cook for another 2 minutes to release flavors.
Return the brisket to the pot along with any juices that may have collected. Pour in beef broth, making sure the brisket is covered about 3/4 of the way.
Cover the pot with a lid and transfer to the oven. Braise the brisket for about 4 hours, or until tender and easily shredded.
While the brisket is cooking, steam or sauté the cauliflower rice according to your preference. Mix in the chopped cilantro and lime juice, and set aside.
Once the brisket is done, remove it from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes. Slice or shred the brisket as desired.
To assemble the bowls, divide the cilantro-lime cauliflower rice among 4 bowls.
Top each bowl with slices of brisket, sliced red bell pepper, avocado, and cherry tomatoes.
Serve immediately and enjoy!
