Risk in bets on certain cuts of meat (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

briskets

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'cuts of meat' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'risk in bets' is the wordplay.
'in' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'risk' inserted into 'bets' is 'BRISKETS'.

'on certain' acts as a link.
I am not very happy about this link. Some or all of it may belong to another bit of the clue.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Another definition for briskets that I've seen is " Cuts of beef found to risk bets".)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
