Brisket is a hardworking cut that transforms through low, slow cooking into deeply flavoured, tender beef with remarkable character.
At Gourmet Butcher, we select pasture-raised beef according to the same principle that guides everything we sell: if we wouldn't serve it to our own family, we won't sell it to yours.

Simple Cooking Guide
Brisket rewards patience. Cook low and slow until the connective tissue has had time to soften.

The Gourmet Butcher Promise
We carefully select suppliers whose farming practices meet our standards and we challenge quality when something doesn't meet our expectations. Maintaining a supplier relationship can never be more important than maintaining your trust.
