    GWG8541 Who would have ever thought that $3.49 was a good buy for one of the most poor cuts of meat.

    An old man can dream. Remember brisket for $0.99 and on special for $0.79 - it wasn’t that long ago.

    I did find brisket at my local Walmart - $1.97. Ungraded, but then again smoking for as long as we do for brisket, most people wouldn’t know the difference.

    Chef I know what you mean. I was just saying to my son that I remember smoking two flats for him to take to work the Labor Day weekend of 2019. I paid 99 cents a pound since it was supposed to be the whole price, but they were out and gave me flats for the sale price. Times have changed drastically.

            Chef brisket flats here are approaching $10/lb, butts $3.49 and steaks $15+/lb. I can drive 2+hrs to my processor and save a bundle buying in bulk.

              jh4_htx I dislike Kroger but maybe for this Ill get some pork butts. My local one is such a freaking joke in the meat selection compared to H-E-B. Thankfully I live in the middle of a Kroger and H-E-B, each of them 1 mile away from my house.

                    I went to Costco yesterday to pick up a pork belly to make bacon. Pork belly was $4.49 a pound and Costco’s name brand bacon was $4.19 a pound. Thats just crazy. The hunt continues for a decent priced pork belly.

                        cdavis yeah, I’m hoping one of the guys behind the counter just screwed up with the pricing machine.
