Braising (from the French word braiser) is a combination-cooking method that uses both wet and dry heats: typically, the food is first browned at a high temperature, then simmered in a covered pot in cooking liquid.

Braising relies on heat, time, and moisture to break down the tough connective tissue (collagen) that binds together the muscle fibers in meat, resulting in a very tender product.

No!

Here at Braised, we want to extol the virtues of slow cooking to everyone, so we employ these same techniques with non-meat ingredients as well.

Our signature Stewed Shrooms are a delicious example of this, as well as our occasional vegetable-based specials!

Absolutely! As of January 1st, 2024 we are 100% gluten-free on our cart!

We are currently stationary at the Cedar Tree Food Pod at 1591 West 6th Ave. in beautiful Eugene, Oregon!

At this time and for the foreseeable future, we are in a stationary location and are unable to move the cart conveniently.

As we settle in and continue to grow, we will be looking for more mobile expansion opportunities. So stay tuned!

We currently suggest that guests utilize our online ordering system to place orders ahead of time, as we aren’t always able to answer the phone in a timely manner.

Demi is a rich and delectable gravy we make from our signature Braised Beef’s braising liquid, red wine (don’t worry, there is no alcohol in the final product), and a gluten free roux!
