Beef Brisket

What Is Beef Brisket?

Beef brisket comes from the lower chest (breast) section of the cow, known as the brisket primal. This area sits just above the front legs and is prized for its rich, beefy flavor and beautiful texture when cooked slowly.

Brisket contains a balance of meat, fat, and connective tissue that transforms beautifully with slow cooking methods like smoking, braising, or roasting—producing slices that are tender, juicy, and full of depth.
