Trying to find a packer cut brisket!?!?!

I am trying to find a source for a whole brisket, not just the flat. None of the grocery stores anywhere near me carry them, or will order them. Does anyone have a good online source without having to pay for prime or wagyu? I just want an ordinary whole brisket.

Help!!!

Thanks.

What part of florida are you in? Here in venice, wal-mart and hermans meat market stock them regularly. Also the super target in sarasota.

Not in Florida anymore, I live in NC now, about 25 miles SE of Raleigh.

Ask around any good meat stores, tell them you want packer briskets in the cryovac.

Perhaps someone has the cut number to hand?

Sam's Club or Restaurant Depot for me. The packer's at my wally world never seem real good, and the flats are enhanced and overpriced.

The Raleigh, Fayetteville, or Goldsboro Sam's doesn't carry them?

find a butcher, or meat processer. May be more expensive, but you'll get your whole brisket, and probably of better quality than big chains. If you know any hunters who dont process their own meat, ask where they go to have their stuff butchered.

If you have a super Walmart nearby you should be able to get them there. Whole packers are a pain to find near me unless you pay $5.99 a lb and special order it from our local specialty meat market or go to the super wally world. They are the only grocery store that carries whole packers near me. They were $2.29 a lb for choice last week.
