Any thoughts on corned beef round V corned beef brisket?


 
Are you talking about what they now try to pass off at the cold cut counter and "corned beef"? IMO that ain't no corned beef. Corned beef and or pastrami can only be from one thing IMO.............................brisket
 
Larry, I agree. The last butcher around me that pickled his own corned beef has retired. I could go in and pick the piece of brisket I wanted and tell him how many days I wanted it in the pickle. It was Great. I sure miss that corned beef. 🙁
 
I prefer corned beef brisket flat. Both flat and point were available at Walmart this past week, Blarney Stone brand.

I’m just wondering about the Wagyu corned beef rounds from Costco.
I love corned beef brisket, my butcher does his own and it’s phenomenal.
 
Since corning is a process that can be applied to different cuts, I'd say it depends on personal preference. If you like the grain and structure of a round, give it a try. I recently had corned beef made from the shoulder (by Miesfeld's of Sheboygan) and it was very good.
