Where to buy Brisket?

[YoMan]

I have 5 days off work coming up this weekend and the weather prediction looks great! Its time to get the smoker going and I was wondering if anyone knew where to get a good brisket in the north metro?? I usually go to Cubs but its always hit or miss.. I was thinking maybe Costco?

I recently purchased 2 at Costco for $3.29 a lb. They are choice and just the flat 2 inch thick part. Very good on my UDS....

that is where i get them, you can usually buy the whole thing or the flat cut. i perfer to cook the whole brisket fat side up. one thing i do it put it in a glass pan and dump a bottle of newmans own salad dressing on it and leave in fridge for a day. there is also a brisket marinade from stabbs or stubbs that is pretty good and do the same thing.

The flat slab at Costco, I wish I could find the whole brisket for a decent price without ordering it.

I am not proffecient at smoking brisket yet.

I need to get better at it.

Try Hackenmueller's Meats in Robbinsdale. Great meat, great guys!

Last summer Costco was out so I had to scramble a bit. Ended up at Anoka Meats and was real happy with the brisket I got.

Hackenmueller's is awesome! I was there a couple of weeks ago for the first time. The owner found out we had never been there before and gave us a tour. I would give them a call and see what they have to say.

Hackenmueller's is awesome!

I buy nearly all my meat there. If you don't see what you want, just ask! Best part is it's walking distance for me
