Brisket, Raw
Brisket is a primal beef cut sourced from the animal's lower chest, characterized by dense connective tissue and marbled fat that require slow, moist-heat cooking methods like braising or smoking. This well-exercised muscle contains high collagen levels that break down into gelatin during prolonged cooking, creating tender results, while providing substantial protein (18-20g per 100g) and variable fat content depending on trimming. As a red meat cut, it delivers iron and zinc but benefits from moderation in balanced diets.
