The only place near me that has briskets (that I know of) is Wal-Mart. I've only tried making a brisket twice before, and am planning to go for it again this weekend. It is a packer but the only label on the package says "Excel." I've been told to look for USDA Choice, but I do not see that anywhere on the package. I've also heard of "Select" but I also do not see that on the package.
Also, what is the line of dark looking stuff on the point? It's a different color than the rest of the brisket. It must be normal because Chris's instruction on the main page shows the same part too. I would link a picture but I can't seem to do it at work.
