As much as I hate Walmart, their briskets don't come from China.
They come from the same packing plants that 95% of the rest of
America gets their beef.
or choice from the usa at a local butcher
for 2.99. Any reasons to go for either, one over the other?
Buy the Walmart brisket for $1.70. One that hasn't expired
recently.
My Walmart had all their briskets marked down to $1.07/lb today
(they expired tomorrrow). I still resisted the temptation.
Unfortunately, Walmart's brisket doesn't have packing dates, so you
can't tell if it's old until it gets marked down 35%.

Ask them to bring you out a whole case for you to look at, it will have the
packing date on it.
