Hi All.
Try as I might I cannot get a decent brisket from a local Yorkshire butcher. All I seem to get are grass fed lumps of toughness with little or no fat content or fat covering. I have had some success but not the mind blowing butter texture I got from the USDA packer cut I tried when I was in the states.
I like to cook the whole thing, point and flat, at the same time.
Anyone got any ideas where I can source a decent packer cut?

If he hasn't got USDA get the Aussie brisket, just as good.

Either James or Mark Burley http://www.bobsfamilybutchers.co.uk/ Both do excellent BBQ cuts and can source the best quality USDA or Aussie briskets. Can personally vouch for Bob as won a selection of ribs from the last BBQ magazine which were all excellent. And he even threw in a tub of A&O Moomami
