Excellent! Thanks for the great explanation of Point and Flat parts of the brisket. I know that just because Costco doesn't have the Point of a brisket, that other source don't. Is it common that most any good butcher shop would have both cuts of brisket? Or perhaps it is just hit or miss - some...
