My increasing frustration over not being able to find a whole packer in CT lead me to a new butcher today. I asked for a whole brisket and this is what they sold me:
Brisket 1
Brisket 2
Brisket 3
Brisket 4
What do you think I have here? Having only worked w/ cryo flats before, I can't figure out what part of this is a flat and if there's a point attached. Overall, it looks like it was trimmed way too much.
The side shown on top in the 1st two pics has a ridge of thicker fat running along one side. The side on top in the 2nd two pics looks more like a flat to me. However, there's very little fat there.
Any advice/guidance would be most appreciated. I'm trying to get this done high heat this afternoon.
Thanks.
