Whole Brisket (Packer Style) | USDA Prime

This is a high quality whole brisket. It is "packer style", meaning you will have to do some trimming and cleaning, but this is EXACTLY what you want if you are planning on doing a proper whole brisket. This is the kind of Brisket you take to a competition (and a lot of our customers do). It has beautiful marbling and has been wet aged for 30 days. Cooking a whole brisket can be a lot of fun. It takes time but the results can be so rewarding. Brisket is not for everyone as it requires timing and patience. You need to be serious about smoking throughout and take it off at the right moment. Remember, low and slow produces the best flavor, tenderness and results.  Our Packer Style briskets have been featured in Food & Wine! ABOUT OUR WEIGHT RANGES Brisket is not a steak, meaning, we don't get to trim it and cut it to an exact weight (we could, but it would just drive price up). Each steer will be different and its Brisket will vary in size. We sell online at pre-determined prices and have divided the Briskets in weight ranges and we price them to the lower end of the weight range. So if it's a 10-13 lb, we are pricing it at 10 lbs. While this may mean you get the smaller end of the weight, you are still getting what you paid for.  LOOKING FOR A SMALLER BRISKET? Briskets don't get smaller than 13 lbs (and that's a rare and small one!). If you are accustomed to buying and cooking smaller briskets perhaps what you are looking for is a Brisket Flat. These do run 6-10 lbs and are very good!
