Briskets are usually 3-4 pounds. Please order 3 or 4 pounds when placing an order for a brisket. 
Brisket is the primary cut for barbecue, corned beef, and Jewish pot roast. It comes from the breast of the animal. Braised, smoked, or slowly roasted, it's rendered soft and satisfying with incredible flavor. Fresh brisket is an inexpensive boneless cut that requires long, slow cooking to break down the collagen in the connective muscle tissues to achieve unctuous tenderness.
