Brisket in Spanish? What is the Spanish translation for brisket meat of the cow?

Question

I have a recipe that I am trying to convert to Spanish for my mother in law. I can't find the correct term for Brisket so she can buy the correct cut of meat at the store.

This is a good question that I would love to see expanded on. I also would like to see more like rump roast; chicken wings; farmer cut of pork ribs; green beans, kidney beans, black beans, pinto beans ect. - foxluv, Mar 31, 2010

Answer 1

Brisket is commonly translated as "pecho"

Have a look at this site: Choice Cut Or Mystery Meat? A Guide To Mexican Butcher Shops: Part I - Beef and intends to help people choose the right meat for Mexican dishes, for example.

You do not say whether or not the brisket you want is for a Mexican dish - only that you want to translate the recipe to Spanish and I guess the recipe is not from a Spanish-speaking country. Nonetheless this site may help.

Here is another site I came across: Beef cuts from Hedge Apple Farm translated into Spanish

Answer 2

It's also called "la falda".

That's the word I know, too. - Gekkosan, Mar 31, 2010

Answer 6

I suppose somebody could share simple recipes every now and then, just like any of the other challenges and games, no?

Answer 7

Deliciosa, just say "la parte más deliciosa".

Seriously though, in my experience, different countries call the same cut of meat by different names.
