Hello folks,
I've got to purchase a brisket or two (depending on number of RSVPs I receive) for a neighborhood barbecue I'm hosting. I've got free shipping from Wildfork and had decent luck w/ their Briskets. One one downside is, you can not choose the size. They say they average 14.5 but also include a disclaimer that the size can vary. There have been some complaints of receiving briskets that are too small for the function. That could be solved by ordering two and keep the other frozen if the one is large enough. Wildfork primes are $4.98 a lb. They are wet aged 17days before frozen. Costco "commodity prime briskets" are $4.14 a pound. The benefit here is I can see them, pick them out, choose the size I want.
Which have you had better luck with, Wildfork or Costco? I've never purchased meat, let alone brisket from Costco.
Any experience?
Thanks in advance,
JD
