Alright folks,
Called around looking for a prime brisket to cook. Found the only butcher in town who sells them in my area but he didn't carry them in store. I have used this butcher many a time with great success. He said he got a case of it in and to come into the store, ask for the manager and he would show me. So I did just that and he brought out 6 different briskets for me to look at. I I picked out a 15.5 lb one with a complete flat cap and an even flat. $3.80/lb. then I got home an got to thinking, "where does it say prime on the piece of meat?" I looked everywhere on the cryo, there is not even a single label. I watched them weigh and print a label right in front of me and it just has "meat department" and the weight and cost. It's pretty floppy, which is a good sign. But my question is, does it need to have the word prime on it, like all the meats at Costco do? Or did I get scammed?
