I decided while I was in town today I was going to buy a brisket flat to put on the smoker tomorrow for the first time. All they had were 2lb pieces of the flat for almost $15 PER POUND!! I know beef is high right now but is that normal price? If so I do believe I will stick with pork.

Wish I could find that! I'd definitely try it at those prices! But....no way in hell for the price I have seen.
