Called Costco and they said that Brisket cost $6.19 a pound. I don't know what standard prices are now, but is this a good price?

Must just be the trimmed up flat for that much. The whole packers usually run $2.50-$3.99 depending on the season. And their beef is prime so that plays a factor too
 
Yup, at my local costco, the whole briskets are prime and less than $3/lb whereas the trimmed flats are only choice and >$5/lb.

In my experience, it’s a heck of a lot easier (and tastier) to smoke bigger pieces of meat with more interstitial fat.
 
late reply...costco prime whole briskets have run 3.99/lb all summer here in SLC.
 
Our Costco usually only carries flats and their expensive. I'm not sure of the price but I believe it's in the $4.00 range. I'll have to check again next time I go.

I go the the Costco business center in Hayward Ca. $3.09 for prime and $2.69 for choice. They also had flats spiced for pastrami for under $5/lb today. I bought beef short ribs, pork ribs and a pork belly today.
