I saw this at my local Food Lion. I knew they had recently started carrying small briskets and I knew that they were more expensive than Walmart whole packers, but this is ridiculous.

LOL. Probably a typo for $9.99/lb which sadly is close to what I typically see IF I see a brisket.
 
Did you get up off the floor on your own or did they call 911. Did you ask if it was a mistake?
Something definitely was wrong with the pricing.

Did you ever check the Costco web site grocery department for Kobe beef? You can order Prime Rib for about that price. I never would have expected a 10lb chunk of beef would run for about $1000.00, wonder if anyone ever ordered some?

This might be hard to find so go to Costco web page, then Grocery, then Gourmet Foods, then Meats. This
https://www.costco.com/meat.html should get you there.

I couldn't even find anybody in the meat department to ask so I just let it go. But it sure was amusing. I would never buy anything less than a full packer anyway. A full packer is juicier than a small flat in my opinion. Besides I can get a packer at Walmart fro $3.49/Lb any day of the week.

Thanks, I will give that one a look. I live closer to Kernersville so I rarely shop over on that end of town, but it is not that far out of the way for me.
