    Well...here they are. I have never seen such big briskets in my life. One is at least 33lb. His digital scale shut off at 33. The other is 28. I was going to ship them in a snake river box that I kept for a case such as this. This box had 2 SRF briskets and 20lb of ground beef in it. The big brisket would not fit. The "little" one fit perfectly. 

    check out the the marbling in the FLAT. Looks like a freaking ribeye. I think I'm just going to have to ship it in my large cooler and get it back from Scottie somewhere down the road. I can't think of anything else to ship it in

    enough chit chat. Here are the pics.

    This is going to 2 guys  with plenty of firepower to cook them. I'm not worthy. I swear if you cut the big one in half it wouldn't fit on a large BGE

    They are tough to find but they are at several farmer's markets during the week. They do Bee Cave Sunday mornings, The Triangle on Wednesdays from 3-7, Lago Vista Fridays 2:30-6:30 and the big one downtown Austin on Saturdays. You can call ahead and they will bring you whatever they have. They do sell most of their glory cuts to the Driskill Hotel but they do have some from time to time. 

    Just shoot him an email or message him on facebook and he will get right back to you. Very nice and humble guy. His name is Josh.

    Don't even care. In our neck of the woods it's priceless! Can't find beef like that for any price here. Thank you again!

    how are you going to cook this on your wore out and broken down webber kettle? Just push the kingsford off to one side and go indirect? Make sure all the lighter fluid is burned off before you start to cook.

    I have honestly been debating that very thing. It's going on one of the big units for sure. I think I will run a 3 way mix of oak, pecan and cherry. I have grown very fond of that mixture.

    Tex, the next time that you speak to him, ask him if he will sale a whole unseperated Wagyu clod. See if he will give you a price on a 30-40 pounder.

    Ok. He will for sure. He's slaughtering the brother of yours in the next few weeks. I'm sure you could have them both if you wanted. He sells everything from tip to tail and needs help with the big cuts.

    If you don't mind, feel him out for a price if I buy both of them.
