The brisket is a cut of meat from the breast or lower chest of an animal (every animal has a brisket, although the term is most often used to refer to beef). The tri-tip comes from the bottom sirloin portion, and is a small triangular muscle. There are very few similarities between the two - brisket needs to be marinated and slow-cooked to enjoy it's full flavor without chewing on shoe-leather, and tri-tip is much leaner, usually used for roasts or steaks, and is always boneless.
