What is the best meat for barbeque?
The best meat for barbeque is beef brisket. Brisket is a cut of meat from the chest or lower front of the cow. It's a tough, fatty cut, but it's also one of the most flavorful.
For the barbeque, you want to cook the meat slowly over low heat, so that it becomes tender and juicy. Brisket is perfect for this because it has a lot of marbling (fat) which melts as the meat cooks and helps to keep it moist. Make sure to rub your brisket with some spices before cooking, and then BBQ it slowly until it's nice and charred on the outside.
