Brisket
Best known for corned beef and beef barbecue, brisket should be prepared with moist heat or "low and slow" levels of heat, perhaps with smoke added for flavor. Brisket is comprised of strong pectoral muscles, with plenty of connective tissue that requires a slow cooking process. Fork tender and succulent, corned beef brisket, pastrami and barbecue brisket all make delicious home-style favorites.
