We explain how to perform non-perturbative computations in HQET on thelattice. In particular the problem of the subtraction of power-law divergencesis solved by a non-perturbative matching of HQET and QCD. As examples, wepresent a full calculation of the mass of the b-quark in the combined staticand quenched approximation and outline an alternative way to obtain the B-mesondecay constant at lowest order. Since no excessively large lattices arerequired, our strategy can also be applied including dynamical fermions.Comment: 27 pages including figures and tables, latex2e; version published in JHEP, typos corrected and 1 reference adde
