Flat Cut Beef Brisket, Raw

EverydayRaw

Flat cut beef brisket is a primal cut from the lower chest of cattle, recognized by its rectangular shape and leaner profile compared to the more marbled point cut. Its dense collagen fibers and minimal fat require slow cooking methods like braising or smoking to transform tough connective tissues into tender gelatin. A staple in barbecue and Jewish culinary traditions, this cut provides substantial protein while retaining enough intramuscular fat to develop deep, savory flavors during extended cooking.
