Last time I was at GFS the briskets looked considerably better than the ones at my Wal-mart and they were full packers about $.50 cheaper than Wal-mart. I have a butcher about 3 blocks from my house (Al's Quality Market) and his briskets are $.59-1.00 more a pound than GFS but I know where the meat is sourced and it is some of the best meat I can get local for any price (Still Cheaper than Gaint Eagle). Plus I can call up and order whatever crosses my fancy with 3 days notice. I am picking up a pork shoulder tonight to smoke up Saturday.
