I went to the local Restaurant Depot here in Alexandria, VA. They usual have brisket from a company called Excel. When I was there yesterday, while the boxes which contained two briskets a piece were labeled as USDA Choice, the actual wet seal package for the brisket was marked with USDA prime. Having said this, when I gave the meat the eye test, it looked like the flat looked like choice to me, but how knows what kind of goodness awaited me in the point. BTW the cost was $2.50 per lb for a case of 2.
