i joined fhe KCBS just for resturant Depot privileges. And last weekend I bought a black angus "superior" brisket. It’s actually USDA Choice but they call it superior for marketing reasons. $55 for juat over 15 pounds.
The last one I bought was from Publix (supermarket chain based in FL). Don’t know the grade. The Publix brisket was smaller with a less meaty point, at a higher cost.
Anthow this thing has a thick meaty point. The flat is somewhat flat though. I will post an update once it’s trimmed and in the cure (it’s going to be corned beef and pastrami). A week after corned beef and cabbage day a neighbor is having crawfish fest, so I am bringing another brisket. Just the flat. I think I will go with their non black angus. More updates for that will follow.
Meanwhile, this is what I have now.
