Braising Guidelines
Less tender cuts such as those from the round, chuck, brisket and shank
require moist cooking. A longer cooking time at lower temperatures with
moisture helps soften the meat.
1. Brown meat with a small amount of oil in heavy pan.
2. Pour off excessive drippings, season, if desired.
3. Add small amount of liquid (1/2 to 2 cups) and cover tightly.
Simmer gently over low heat on top of the range or in a 325°F oven,
until meat is fork tender.
All times and recommended temperatures are provided by the USDA, the Beef Industry Council, the National Pork Producers
Council, and the American Sheep Industry Council.
