just did 1.19 at costco here in Houston... thats for full Brisket
(packer cut).
cheaper than walmart, whic is round 1.50 - 2.00 normaly.

Does your Walmart carry Select or Choice briskets? I smoked a couple of the
selects, and I was underwhelmed...they were pretty dry, well before they
were tender. Would Choice be much better?

So what are you paying for Brisket these days? Suggestion where I can
find some decently priced? Locally I'm seeing it at 3.99 a lb and am
wondering if thats a fair price or if I should be looking for something
cheaper. (I'm in Seattle)

Yeah, every yr. at NIOSA we run a fried mushroom booth. Inevitably a tofu head
will cross examine me if these are truly vegan, what kind of fry oil, what's in
the batter, etc.

This year I decided I'd had enough and told this gal it was all vegan except the
horse shit they're grown in. Needless to say I lost a customer.

See and I've always wanted to go into one of these chain burger places,
ask them how vegan their burgers are, the buns, the vegan patties,
everthing.

Then ask them to put bacon on my veggie burger.

hopefully. they've
got the pre-smoked briskets on sale this week - which are really
pretty good for $3/lb

Wow! You are a braver man than I, Sir. So... those pre-done ones are
actually OK?!! I might just give one a try. Price per pound might even
out and mebby I can figger a way to make it mo betta. Maybe heat up on
the pit with some kinda Apple wood . ...or in some foil with some
kinda secret sace, huh? Somthing along those lines. You ever tried
anything like that with one of those things?

Apple wood is very good, and here is something else I picked up. Try
soaking your chips in apple juice. I tried that this weekend with five
large racks of pork and four racks of beef ribs. Turned out pretty well.
