How to Slice Brisket

Q: Do you slice Brisket across or with the grain?

A: How brisket is sliced depends on the brisket and how tender it is..

If you have a brisket that is overcooked and falling apart then you may want to slice a tad thicker and with the grain to help hold it together better.

If the brisket is a little on the tough side, maybe not tough but definitely not overly tender then you can slice it a little thinner and across the grain for a very tender effect.

In most cases you will probably want to slice it across the grain but I wanted to outline both methods for you.
