Whole brisket and tri-tip's in NJ


 
If you have a Trader Joes they usually have tri tip's from Australia in their meat section. I think the ones in the blue label are plain, they sell others that are in a marinate. I've used one that was in a marinate and didn't like it that much the plain one that I seasoned myself came out better.

If you have a local butcher or meat market ask them for whole brisket, they should be able to get one for you. I've seen whole brisket at super Walmart's, but haven't used one. Also pretty sure if you go to the meat market at the big chains, they should have them or be able to get one for you. I've seen whole brisket at Giant and Wegman's

Lots of folks on the forum get whole briskets from Costco or Sam's as well.

Tri tips are tough to get on the East coast because they are not a popular cut. Treuth's near Baltimore have them in their retail store. Just talked to them today and was told they always have them. I have tried to order tri tip from chains, local butcher and meat market, but they typically will only sell by the case because they can't move them.
 
Wegmans is now carries tri tips but they are small and expensive. I am pretty sure that BJs down here carries full packers. If you need one I can go take a look 4 you and ask since I am there once a week. Just let me know.
 
Thanks guys. I will get to Cherry Hill, it is only 15 min away. the BJ's by me told me that none of the ones in Jersey would sell either one. The only current supply of Tri-Tips is the militay commisary and they are hit and miss often. I'll also try Sams/Cosco they are also 15-20 min away just have to get a membership if I have to.
 
I haven't checked on Tri-Tips, but you can get full packer briskets from Dutch's Meats in Ewing/Trenton just off Olden Ave. Usually have to call a day or two ahead and ask them to get a "whole brisket nose on". It's also cash and carry as they are a wholesaler and don't normally deal with walk-ins.

On 22 August I tried purchasing tri-tips at Wegman's and Trader Joes in Cherry Hill and Marlton. It didn't go well. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>
The Tri on the right is what you are looking for.
