Beef Brisket
Fatty, well-marbled meatBBQ and smoking (low & slow)Braising and boiling for broth
Beef brisket is a flavorful, well-marbled cut from the breast section of the cow. Its high collagen content makes it ideal for slow cooking, long, gentle heat transforms tough connective tissue into silky, tender meat. In American cuisine, brisket is an icon of BBQ and smokehouse cooking: smoked at low temperature for many hours until a deep, dark bark forms on the surface. In European traditions, brisket is often simmered with root vegetables as the base for rich broths and served with horseradish or mustard.
Beef brisket rewards patient, low and slow cooking with juicy, fork-tender meat full of deep, smoky flavor.
