Yeah, I was very surprised when I saw them today. I didn’t know the Wagyu briskets had been for sale that long. But again, I rarely shop at HEB, wish I had one a little closer to my house.Thanks for the heads up on ordering one. Didn’t know that.

HEB seems to stay in touch with current trends in Texas. Dino ribs have taken off in the past few years so they started carrying them, as Steve said, about 6-7 months ago. I've cooked a rack and they were good. I ran across the wagyu briskets at an HEB in Austin in May 2019 and bought one. I was headed to Fredricksburg and hit the HEB there, they had three - me and my friend bought them out. They ended up being the best briskets I've ever cooked. They were also $5.99/lb back then.
The Port Arthur location only carries the wagyu briskets around holidays but you can ask them to order some anytime.Last edited by 58limited; January 3, 2021, 04:52 PM.

Panhead John here you go;
This post is really a combination of firsts for me. I recently purchased a Weber 26" kettle to add to my arsenal and ran across a wagyu brisket sold in my

Troutman Can you send me a link to the post you’re referring to about cooking the Wagyu briskets?

Yeah. Time to come out I guess. 🤓 I shop at Kroger cause it’s much closer than the HEB in my hood. And I buy most of my meat at Costco, so I’m not really at HEB that much. I almost got the Wagyu brisket, since I was gonna do one anyway. But decided on the choice, maybe next time.

They’ve had Wagyu brisket from Mishima Reserve and now SRF for about a year and a half. Did a couple of posts on cooking them probe tender, aged and pastrami. The ribs began showing up about 6 months ago.
You been hiding under your pet rock again?

Trend lemmings have wiped out the retail beef plate market. Like all things, once something gets popular the supply goes down and the price up.
I remember when Scotch Whisky prices doubled in the mid 90's.

Wagyu Brisket And Dino Ribs.......In A Grocery Store?
I was just at an HEB grocery store in Pt. Arthur, Tex. today and was surprised at what I found. If you’re not familiar, HEB is a Texas based grocery store with 340 locations only in Texas and some in Northeastern Mexico. Anyway, while shopping for steaks there I found Wagyu Briskets and 4 bone packs of beef plate ribs! I’d never seen these in a large chain grocery store before. Maybe others have? But anyway it looks like the growing popularity of these items are going more mainstream. Have any of y’all seen Wagyu or Dino Ribs in a large chain grocery store before? The Dino ribs were choice grade. The Wagyu brisket was only $6.99 lb. Saw a good selection of choice briskets on sale and had to get one. Haven’t done a brisket in a while.Last edited by Panhead John; January 3, 2021, 02:48 PM.Tags: None
