I bought two last week at $4.99/lb Costco Prime, I’m feeling fortunate with the prices I see in this thread.

On Wednesday at the local Wal-Mart, there was only one brisket and it was a 20 pound choice packer at $2.96/lb. I would have bought it except it has a very thin flat and appeared to have a very thick of fat cap and the color of the meat was more pink than red. Decided to pass as have three in the freezer.


Strange times.

Yes, I always have to trim quite a bit of fat from the briskets I get at Walmart.

I guess it pays to complain. Just ordered two whole choice briskets for $2.99 a lb at Kroger. If I'm going to burn all that lump in the Open Range I want to fill it up and have plenty for chili.

Buuuut..... they didn't actually have them even though they were on the weekly ad. No rainchecks allowed these days.

Oh well. This too shall pass. I suppose if having to switch to chuckies is the worst that happens to me I'm doing OK.
