Barrel99 said:At Fresh Market the other day, an upscale market like Whole Foods, I asked if they had packers. He said yes they run about $89. I said sounds good, by this time my mouth was watering. Are they choice? I asked. No they are prime. WoW, the mother load, $89 for a prime packer. How many pounds, I asked . He replied, 3 or 4. I backed away from the counter. For a whole brisket?, I asked. No we don't sell whole ones, only flats. Good Grief!
