Brisket with Pomegranate-Walnut Sauce and Pistachio Gremolata
Tart pomegranate, acting as both marinade and sauce, brings brightness and balance to this rich brisket. A pistachio-mint gremolata adds a touch of herbal freshness.

Mamaleh's Brisket
The point cut is the fattier end of the brisket. It’s more tender and especially delicious because of the marbling. Ask for it first.

Slow Cooker Corned Beef Brisket with Cabbage, Potatoes & Dill
Corned beef is timeless and deserves a spot at the table, not just on St. Paddy’s Day. It is a crowd-pleaser that loves the low-and-slow ethos of the slow cooker, turning it tender without fail.

Brisket
This sweet and savory version is perfection itself, melting in your mouth. It's very important to buy a "first-cut" or "flat-cut" brisket, which has far less fat than other cuts.

Wine-Braised Brisket With Butternut Squash
This brisket is braised for hours, just as many Jewish briskets are, but we incorporate white wine instead of the more typical red, and butternut squash instead of potatoes. This makes for a lighter, brighter brisket, so it’s a better fit for spring holiday meals.

Braised Brisket with Bourbon-Peach Glaze
Go sweet and savory: a fatty brisket benefits from the hot sweetness of bourbon in the soy sauce-stout soaking liquid. Glaze the meat in peaches for added Southern character.

Belgian Ale-Braised Brisket
For a beer-braised brisket, go for a Belgian Tripel ale. The clove notes and caramely character add a spicier dimension to slow-cooked beef. We're keen on Unibroue's La Fin du Monde, a Tripel style out of Quebec.
