Brisket, American barbecue restaurant in Zurich West, Switzerland.
Brisket is an American barbecue restaurant in Zurich West that slowly smokes beef, pork, and ribs using Texas methods. The entire process happens in its own smokers, where each meat cut spends several hours cooking.
Two Swiss brothers founded this restaurant and brought their passion for authentic American barbecue culture to Zurich. From this personal vision grew a successful meeting place for lovers of traditional smoking techniques.
The restaurant combines Swiss meat quality with traditional American barbecue methods, creating its own culinary approach that honors both traditions.
The restaurant opens Tuesday to Friday for lunch from 11:30 to 13:30, then again for dinner from 17:00 onward, and Saturday evenings from 16:00. The menu focuses on meat dishes, so vegetarians should check ahead about alternatives.
Each meat cut is smoked using specific wood types, with brisket requiring up to 12 hours of smoking time. This long preparation is part of the craft approach that sets the place apart from faster grilling operations.
