    Default What's the most tender / least chewy cut of beef?

    ...and how do you cook it to maximise the tenderness?

    This brisket's chewy as fook.

    You didnt cook it correctly then.

    Brisket, when cooked correctly is the most tender and full flavour of all cuts.

    Next time do it in a slow cook for 7 hours. You wont be able to carve it as it will just fall apart under the pressure of the carving knife.

    Brisket could be the most tender cut if you were to cook it properly. Hoy it in a stew and let it cook for hours and hours and it'll be falling apart.

    Otherwise Fillet would be a good choice, but only if you have it very rare.

    If neither of these work for you, eat mince.

    7 hours?

    What gas mark?

    Or do you just leave it outside in the sun?
