What type of meat is used to make smoked brisket?

[Horton]

Hello!! I'm wondering, what kind of meat do we use for smoked brisket? I heard that it's usually beef, but wanted to double-check with y'all. I never made one myself, so this is pretty new for me. I also heard about its unique slow-cook and smoke flavor. Any tips or tricks would be super helpful too!

Smoked brisket typically uses beef brisket, a flavorful and tender cut of meat that's ideal for smoking. It's all about that juicy, melt-in-your-mouth goodness!

Based on my own experience, brisket is commonly used for smoked brisket even though it takes a lot of time I can assure you that it is worth your time.

Yep, it's beef—specifically the part that dreams of becoming BBQ royalty after a long, smoky nap.
