In the art of cooking and in the butcher’s trade, the beef brisket is a moderately mixed, long-fiber section of the front quarter of beef. It lies below the transverse rib, from which it is sawn off across the ribs. The shape is narrow and high at the front, flat and wide at the back. It is divided into three roughly equal parts: In front – narrow, fleshier and less bones than the other parts – the tip of the breast or the sternum. The core of the chest or mid-breast is more streaky, covered with a thick layer of fat and has a stronger taste. The rear breast is the thinnest and widest part.
