Brisket can be served as a weeknight meal, or for a special occasion. It is significantly less expensive than most cuts of meat and if you have never cooked one before, it needs to be cooked slowly, at a very low temperature for around 3 to 4 hours in order to dissolve the tough connective tissues of the meat.
You can dress Brisket up with different veggies, or make a sandwich, the options are endless. When you roast beef brisket low and slow in the oven, you end up with meat that’s so tender and buttery, it practically falls apart.
