Slow-cooked brisket in the oven is a method of preparing brisket, a cut of beef from the breast or lower chest, by cooking it slowly in a covered oven. This method results in a tender and flavorful brisket that is fall-off-the-bone delicious.
Brisket and other cuts of beef have been cooked slowly for centuries. The method gained popularity because it allowed tough cuts of meat to become tender and flavorful. The history of brisket preparation dates back to the 19th century when Jewish immigrants from Eastern Europe brought the tradition of slow-cooking brisket to the United States. Today, slow-cooked brisket is a popular dish all over the world.
