Default Good Butcher is key.

But I do hope to try your recipe. Thanks!
Your right about the size of the brisket as well its important to have your butcher trim it to your liking. Its between 5 and 6 dollars a pound for something they used to grind into burger. We all know they used to throw chicken wings out with the guts. Supply and demand I guess. Good luck
