The Brisket
The Brisket is legendary. Taken from the breast of the animal, it is rich, tough, and absolutely perfect for low and slow cooking. With deep marbling and plenty of connective tissue, the Brisket transforms under heat into something tender, smoky, and unforgettable. Whether smoked Texas-style, braised to perfection, or roasted in the oven, this cut defines celebration.
What You’ll Get
Each quarter share includes about 2.5 to 3.5 lbs of Brisket. A half cow brings 5 to 7 lbs, enough for a full brisket cook or several small batches. A full share offers 10 to 14 lbs, perfect for smoking whole, slicing for sandwiches, or shredding for tacos. This cut is made for long cooks — in the smoker, the oven, or the slow cooker.
Why It Matters
The Brisket is a labor of love. It asks for patience and care, but gives back unmatched flavor and texture. With its rich fat cap and powerful grain, it tells a story in every bite. Whether you are feeding a crowd or honoring a tradition, the Brisket makes the moment memorable.
Every Cut from the Brisket, Included.
When you order Brisket from American West Wagyu, you receive every cut from the whole brisket—beautifully marbled, expertly portioned, and ready for the smoker, oven, or cast iron. All the cuts below come standard.
