It may just be a Long Island thing, but I have been having a heck of a time find good competition briskets the last few months.
I have been to Restaurant Depot every weekend for the last month and have found a total of 2 whole packers that I could use. Every thing else is 10-12 pounds and the flats are so thin I can see through them (not really but almost).
Granted I prefer briskets that are 16-18 pounds but even 14 would be doable. I finally had to settle for a choice packer today (versus CAB) and trying a flat for the first time in competition.
I may have to get an extra freezer and stockpile in the winter when demand is less!
