What I don’t understand these days is pricing. I can buy corned beef for
1/2 the price of brisket. Pork belly cost more than cured and sliced
bacon.

The belly at Costco was $2.29l, wilthout the rind. Not bad, and it pretty lean
also. I've never understood the price difference between corned beef and
brisket. I just did a corned beef on the Traeger yesterday. Spectacular. Low and

Pretty good stuff. When we were in New Zealand, they even had pork belly
pizza. Think bacon, with out the cure.

That's what's weird. Corned beef brisket *is* brisket. It's just been brined.
I've no idea why it's usually cheaper than fresh brisket.

It is. Salt cured Brisket. Called Corned, because the slat use was,the
size of corn kernels. My comment, is they process the brisket and it sells
for 1/2 the price of brisket.

It is all about the volume. They sell a lot more bacon than raw pork
belly and the guys who make bacon pay a pittance for it. Same way with
Brisket. Those are generally waste byproducts that they sell for
pennies a pound.
I remember when I was working at Swift "Skirt Steak" was a nickel a
pound at the processing plant and my sister fed it to her dogs. Then
we discovered Fajitas and it costs more than sirloin at the store.

It because the corned beef producer will buy it by the truck load
directly from the processor. If it goes through the retail channel it
gets treated like steak and they price it that way because they can.

Also fads. Guy I knew years ago, around 2004, had run a butcher shop. He
was amazed at the prices for some cuts. He said, stuff they used to,grind
in to hamburger was now more than some steak. I know a guy who grew up
around Santa Barbara where Santa Maria tri tip is from. He said they used
to use sirloin block until it got to expensive and then when to the end of
rump roast. Now the tri tip is $6 a pound on sale.

Just the fact that it is true makes it apparent the big corned beef
producers are getting a deal. I am not really seeing the differences
you are talking about tho unless it is a St Patty's day sale and they
are using the corned beef as a loss leader.
Typically it seems the corned beef and raw brisket price is similar,
certainly within a buck a pound depending on which is on sale that
week.
They do sell the corned beef really cheap around St Patty's day. I
usually get a couple and freeze them
That is like the 49 cent/lb turkeys on Thanksgiving. I bet that is
less than Giant's cost on a frozen turkey. They just want you to fill
your cart with things they are making money on. .
I have a 49 cent/lb turkey in my freezer as we speak. (from the
Christmas sale) I ate my last St Patty's day corned beef in the summer
last year.

Probably not. It all depends on how Giant buys their brisket.

Well, they sell it as a packers cut, all wrapped up.

When Grobbel's buys it they get them in a huge crate unpackaged.

I would expect they're all that way at one point or another.


Just the fact that it is true makes it apparent the big corned beef
producers are getting a deal. I am not really seeing the differences
you are talking about tho unless it is a St Patty's day sale and they
are using the corned beef as a loss leader.
Typically it seems the corned beef and raw brisket price is similar,
certainly within a buck a pound depending on which is on sale that
week.
They do sell the corned beef really cheap around St Patty's day. I
usually get a couple and freeze them
That is like the 49 cent/lb turkeys on Thanksgiving. I bet that is
less than Giant's cost on a frozen turkey. They just want you to fill
your cart with things they are making money on. .
I have a 49 cent/lb turkey in my freezer as we speak. (from the
Christmas sale) I ate my last St Patty's day corned beef in the summer
last year.


My last St Pat's day corned beef got eaten last week. About nine hours on the
smoker.


I guess I like corned beef more than that. If I know there is one in
the freezer, it calls my name. I have been doing them in the big
pressure cooker lately. (cabbage, potatoes, old school) Never tried a
smoked one. I would think a raw brisket would be better for that with
a good rub. I have done that on my old electric smoker.

Free! What I don?t understand these days is pricing. I can
buy corned beef for1/2 the price of brisket. Pork belly cost
more than cured and slicedbacon.

I thought corned beef was brisket. Enlighten me.


That's what's weird. Corned beef brisket *is* brisket. It's just been brined.
I've no idea why it's usually cheaper than fresh brisket.

It because the corned beef producer will buy it by the truck load
directly from the processor. If it goes through the retail channel it
gets treated like steak and they price it that way because they can.

Wouldn't that also be true of a brisket sold in Giant?

Probably not. It all depends on how Giant buys their brisket.

added. Very good.

I cook the old fashioned corned beef like Fretwell in our instant
pot...corned beef, spices, cabbage, potatoes, carrots... First the
corned beef and then the veggies. Makes a nice, tender corned beef
dinner. With leftovers for a couple of days.The instant pot cuts the
beef cooking time way way down, to about an hour and a half.

Yeah, That is just a pressure cooker with a publicist ;-)
It does do a good job on the corned beef tho. You are right, you need
to time your vegetables so they don't turn to mush.

I did one corned beef on the smoker. Way too salty, never again. I only use fresh brisket on the smoker. When I do my first pastrami, I'll brine my own to control the salt content.

Smoked are great. I had four in the freezer from last St. P's day. Will stock up
again this year. Whole briskets are good, but a lot more trouble and cost. I did
the cabbage, potatoes, and carrots in the house. Use the same rub on the corned
beef as on the briskets.
