USDA Prime whole beef brisket sold as a full case commodity item, priced per pound. This full packer brisket is boneless with an average weight of approximately 71 pounds per case, containing multiple whole briskets. Each brisket typically weighs between 12-18 pounds, with the ideal range being 14-17 pounds for optimal cooking results.

Prime grade beef features exceptional marbling throughout both the point and flat sections, providing superior moisture retention and flavor compared to Choice or Select grades. The brisket comes sealed in Cryovac packaging with pack date marking, allowing for wet-aging techniques used by competition pitmasters. The Prime grading ensures substantial intramuscular fat that contributes to even cooking and tender, juicy results when properly prepared.

This commodity brisket is available at most Costco locations except on the East Coast where it may require special ordering. Ideal for BBQ smoking, slow roasting, or braising applications. The whole packer configuration includes both the lean flat and the fatty point sections, offering versatility for different cooking methods and presentations.
