I can pass on mine. Don't want it to be consuming someone's freezer space unless someone has a lot of room to spare.NASH wrote:They'll arrive day after I place the order so it can be any day pretty much.

Re: Brisket Buy - Week of April 29th
Ladies,
Been a slight change in these. Mah man asked the Sysco rep for current pricing and instead of a call back, a box of brisket arrived.
- They are fresh, not frozen
- $3/lb
- Average 12 lbs each ($36)
These cases have 4 per, so I have 4 on hand now.
Who from the list in the op wants 'em? I don't think I want to do one this weekend so they're all up for grabs.
I'll order more in over the next week or two so everyone gets theirs

They're fresh so yeah, they need to go. That said, you could likely age them fro at least a week, maybe two before cooking.RubberToe wrote:I can wait but if people don't jump on these I can grab one from you tomorrow if you need to move them.

Greg, will you have more briskets available when I'm down next week for Jeff and I? If not, no worries at all.....I just wasn't sure what the latest scoop was is all.

Re: Brisket Buy - Week of April 29th
Okay so here's the dealio.....
These fresh briskets we got in were 'flats' only, with the 'point' removed. I prefer full packer briskets and talked to the sales rep myself today. The last time I bought them was spring of 2011 when they were $2.29/lb. Current price is....... $3.30/lb! Only up ~ 30% in two years!
Gawd.
Anyhow, they're frozen as originally posted. I ordered a case which they said would be 5 pieces and will be in hand tomorrow, Tuesday.
So it's going to be...
Canuck x 1
JeffSmith x 1
Xman x 1
Sandy x 1
HPsauce x 1
That'll wrap it up for this weeks brisket buy. I can order in another case next week!

Thank you good sir! If you or anyone else happen to be heading up this way before Shane is down next week I don't mind meeting somewhere to get it out of your way earlier.

I likely won't get a chance for it until the following weekend but if you're running short on freezer room I'll definitely make it work.NASH wrote:Very good.
