Our Kroger only has choice black angus flats for 5.99 lbs. average 6 lbs.

Called butcher shop. 3.43 lbs, 13-15 lbs choice packers.

What y'all think? Looking at Memorial Day brisket.

    I'm a brisket virgin, but I have decided I don't want to try it until I can get a whole packer.  

    Was that $3.43/lb for the packer?  I would go with that.  

    Funny- I spent my lunch break calling around and could't find one.  I can order one from my Publix but it is like $5.50/#...ouch!



    Which came first the chicken or the egg?  I egged the chicken and then I ate his leg.

    Do the packer. Their both choice. I may waffle if the butcher had select grade. Just test them out for the flopiest one.
  • I would cook a select packer over a prime flat. Get the packer
