Does brisket have a lot of collagen?

Chef's answer
Collagen is most abundant in muscles that get the most exercise. For this reason, brisket (from the breast, which supports 60 percent of the cow's weight) is naturally higher in collagen than chuck (from the shoulder)..

In this optimal temperature zone, collagen breaks down at a rapid pace, but the meat stays well below the boiling point of water (212 degrees), helping minimize moisture loss.
