Brisket - Small Size
This cut seems to be the most well-known. Taken from the lower chest of the animal, it has lots of connective tissue and needs to be cooked correctly to tenderize it. Cattle do not have collar bones, so the brisket muscles must support about 60% of the cattle weight while it moves. Interesting! Brisket can be baked, boiled, smoked or roasted. The attached fat helps it stay moist while cooking. We have some larger briskets that will be great to feed a crowd but we also have these smaller ones that are perfect for a weekend family supper! Price listed is by the piece and each piece is approximately 3.6 pounds.
