So I recently moved to central Ohio and haven't been able to find the point cut of a brisket anywhere. It's nothing but flat (except one time I found a whole packer at Costco)
So today I try a new butcher shop and they let me get just a point cut. I was so excited I just got 4 lbs and came home. After looking at it I'm afraid he might have ruined it. Seems he tried to cut out most of the deckle and created a big flap. There is a also a very thin spot in the middle of Cut - maybe an inch thick max.
So what adjustments should I make to salvage this? Going to be smoking on a pellet grill.
To pour salt in the wound I paid $8.99/lb [emoji]128542[/emoji]
