Every smoker and BBQ enthusiast's dream cut, expertly prepared with the bone removed and trimmed to the ideal fat cap for outstanding flavour and texture. This legendary low-and-slow cut transforms with patient cooking, releasing deep, rich, beefy flavours and achieving fall-apart tenderness that melts in the mouth.
Sourced from the finest grass-fed, grain-fed, UK, EU, and selected origin beef, handled with the care and tradition of our family butcher team, this brisket is the ultimate choice for those who love BOLD, smoky results. Whether you're firing up the smoker for an all-day masterpiece, slow-roasting in the oven, or braising for comforting tenderness, it delivers unparalleled depth and satisfaction – a true showpiece for gatherings and special feasts.
Available in generous portions (typically around 1kg+ options, serves 3-4 people per kilo) – bone-in removed, trimmed, and ready for your low-and-slow magic. Arrives fresh and suitable for freezing
Bring the brisket to room temperature (about 1 hour out of the fridge) for even cooking.
Pat dry thoroughly and season generously – a classic dry rub with sea salt, black pepper, and your favourite spices works wonders for bark and flavour.
For best results, cook low and slow: on the smoker or BBQ at 90-110°C for at least 8 hours (or until probe-tender around 95°C internal), in the oven at around 90-100°C, or braise in a covered pot with liquid. Check our guide to safe cooking temperatures and dedicated brisket pages for details.
Rest loosely covered with foil for 30-60 minutes (or wrap and hold in a cooler), this crucial step redistributes the juices for maximum tenderness and flavour. Slice or pull against the grain for serving, thin slices for sandwiches or thick chunks for platters.
If frozen, thaw slowly in the fridge first, see our freezing and defrosting guide.
Serve simply with the natural smoky richness shining through, or pair with classic BBQ sides, pickles, coleslaw, or sauce, elevate with our smoked brisket method or add a glaze for extra indulgence
