What Is a Brisquetta?
This is one of my favourite cooks. It's the kind of recipe that looks impressive but is actually pretty straightforward once you know what you're doing. I've kept the method simple so you can focus on getting the basics right. Once you've nailed this, you can start experimenting with different rubs and techniques.
