Miguel Vergara Aberdeen Angus Brisket
This extraordinary brisket is taking the BBQ and Smoker scene by storm here in the UK. The marbling is superior to some Wagyu we have seen in the past. This intramuscular fat protects the meat from drying out during slow and low cooking leaving the end result wonderfully moist. Once it renders out, the marbling creates a wonderful array of flavour too. 27+ portions per piece.

What Is Brisket and What Part Of The Cow Is Brisket?
As mentioned above, brisket is a cut of beef taken from the lower back or chest, containing the breast muscles, including the deep pectorals and the superficial muscles. It is often quite a large cut with a layer of fat on one side which gives the meat it's succulent, juicy flavour.
How many hours does it take to cook a brisket?
If cooking your brisket in the oven, it will typically take around 3 to 4 hours. A slow cooker takes around 10 to 12 hours of cooking on low heat or 5 to 6 on a high heat setting. You may choose to cook your brisket on the stovetop, which will take around 3 hours, or until tender.
How do you make brisket tender?
The best way to ensure your brisket is tender and juicy is to prepare it in a slow cooker. This is an incredibly easy way to prepare brisket and is perfect for beginners.
Brisket can be a tough cut, but preparing it in the slow cooker helps the connective tissue to break down, and form beautifully tender meat.
