The
beef brisket is one beef primal cuts. Brisket is a cut of meat from the breast
or lower chest of beef or veal.
Due
to the collagen fibers that make up the significant connective tissue in the
cut, slow cooking is the most popular cooking process. It actually tenderizes
this normally tough cut of meat when the collagen gelatinizes. For this recipe buying
the thin cut slices would be most ideal.
