That's still cheaper than here,even in beef country the lower grade point cut (I prefer the flat cut,less waste) is at least that much. But I'll bite the bullet & get at least one 2 or 3 pound brisket for the smoker before summer is over.
Son/girlfriend brought up a 13+ lb brisket on Sat. evening, but as it was frozen, we had brats, dogs, burgers, cheddar wurst, pulled pork and a bunch of sides for a GTG on Sunday. YUM!
I just took the brisket off the pit, separated the point and chopped into squares and back on the grill for burnt ends. wrapped the flat in foil and put it in a cooler to rest before slicing
here it is, took about 16 hours has a nice smoke ring and good taste. also did bbq beans with leftover pulled pork in it
