Yep, It was Shop N Save. I took him some back and I think he was surprised at how good it was. People in NC just don't know what you can do with a brisket.
I had him slice me some jerky meat too. He used some misc roast pieces that would go into hamburger and only charged me like $2.97/lb...

Looks like a very affordable electric smoker.
That's actually a good question about scale adjustment. When I buy steaks they don't weigh them until they're wrapped. Granted, butcher paper is pretty light but you're still paying for it. The packer briskets I buy aren't weighed until I get them so I'm paying for the cryo, there's a little...
