I just checked my vendor who sells a bunch choice is going at anywhere from 3.95 to 4.50 a pound depending on size, trim, company. Prime is 5.15 to 6.63 depending on same. Select or no roll is 3.23 to 4.15. They aren't listing any wagyu which probably means any they have is contracted and not available. These represent prices without a deal. And most who pay on time are probably getting a 1 percent rebate.

44 farms which is a special kind of deal and probably to the high side of pricing has zero availability meaning someone is buying their entire supply. I used to know who that was but he has since changed

And don't make any judgements about what places charge based on these numbers because there are some really expensive things associated with cooking brisket commercially

it is, thats why its prime. marbled would be a better definition.[/]

What some folks will pay to get some extra fat!

got me a choice brisket today, gonna try the aging thing.

Yes we use prime

The grading of all cuts on a steer come from a scorer cutting between the 12th & 13th rib and checking the marbling. That scores determines the whole carcass grade. I've seen prime briskets that can be lean, and choice briskets that can be heavily marbled.
On the avg though, prime briskets will have more marbling.
