I've been looking for a more competitive price as top quality brisket is very pricey especially when trimming one you may lose 5 to 7 lbs in the trim up. I have for years bought brisket from Snake River Farms and without a doubt the go to choice for the Pitmasters. While reading the reviews on Nebraska Star brisket I was impressed with the fact they do a fair job getting rid of the hard ugly fat which means less work for you. I decided to give Nebraska Star a try and I'll say I was more than happy with my first one. It arrived in a thick styrofoam sealed container. Still very frozen which is important to me because I may not want to cook it right away. I've had some briskets partially thawed from SRF's and caused me some grief. Well after the thaw in the fridge I opened the CryoVac seal and noticed very little liquid in the package as compared to other suppliers. I weighed it before I opened it and it weighed in at 12.6 lbs and I trimmed off no more than 2.5 lbs which made easy work. The point was a bit small but the flat was a nice size and thicker than most weighing the same. My visual observation of it revealed a higher content of marbling of fat that you usually see in only the Waygu grades of meat. The fat cap had a large gouge in the center but I filled it with some trimmings. Not a big problem! I used the same method to cook it as I've used with a Waygu gold brisket from Snake River Farms and was pleasantly surprised to see it finished cooking in less time than traditional high quality briskets. That is usually because of the high quality of fat marbling in the muscle. This was a very good high quality cut of brisket and it showed after the cook. This was not my very best brisket I've ever cooked but it's up there with some of the best. For the price, it's the best quality I have ever bought! I will be a regular purchaser of Nebraska Star briskets and if I were to compete I believe it would take in a few blue ribbons. The main thing is I'll save some money compared to the more pricey top quality briskets that you have to do a lot of prep trimming for a cook. Glad to have tried Nebraska Star... I've just ordered 3 more briskets! I'm hoping for consistency... that will be in my next review. Review: Great brisket even when smoked by an amateur. - Full Disclosure: This is the first USDA Prime Aged beef brisket I have bought and my first product review. Being an amateur backyard smoker I decided I wanted to take on an USDA Prime 35 day wet aged Angus beef brisket so I found Nebraska Star on desertcart. I have done local grocery store briskets before but this would be my first "competition" brisket. I was nervous to spend that kind of money on meat over the internet but my worries were for nothing, this brisket was awesome! It was shipped through my Prime account and arrived perfectly sealed and frozen. The instructions said to refrigerator thaw 24hrs prior but I found it took almost 48hrs in my fridge. When I opened the cryovaced package the aroma that came out was the purest, most powerful beef smell I have ever experienced. The meat itself was so tender I thought I was going to be able to pull it apart with my hands simply by moving it around. I seasoned it simply with coarse sea salt and coarse ground peppercorns and then let it sit in my fridge wrapped for another 24hrs. After smoking it for 14hrs it came out divine. The flavors were so deep and rich that my family couldn't believe that it wasn't marinaded or seasoned it with a rub to achieve those flavors and tenderness. That brisket was that good with just salt 'n pepper. ## Features - No hormones, antibiotics, steroids - Hand cut and trimmed - Aged 35 days or more - U.S. Beef from Ranches in the Midwest to Mountain West ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B079H995GM | | Best Sellers Rank | #308,847 in Grocery & Gourmet Food ( See Top 100 in Grocery & Gourmet Food ) #10 in Beef Brisket | | Customer Reviews | 3.9 3.9 out of 5 stars (40) | | Manufacturer | Lucky Brand Jerky -- Dropship | | Product Dimensions | 12 x 16 x 17.5 inches; 8 Pounds | | Units | 8 Pounds | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Nebraska Star Beef - **Cuisine:** American - **Flavor:** Beef - **Item Weight:** 8 Pounds - **Size:** 8 Pound (Pack of 1) ## Images ![Angus Brisket Whole, 8 Pound - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71WGFUlULNL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: How Many Pounds Is It?** A: The average weight is approximately 8 pounds but varies based on the size of the cattle. **Q: how do you pack it?** A: The beef brisket arrived in a foam box with a small amount of dry ice inside to preserve the frozen condition. I simply removed the beef and slipped into my own freezer until I wanted to defrost for use. The beef is packed in a vac plastic wrap and then in a huge foil bag I presume as supplemental insulation. Defrosting will take 2 + days in fridge so plan ahead. I bought a 13# brisket and sought and received a great recipe from the Nebraska Beef Trade Association. **Q: So weight will vary? Does it come trimmed and ready to be smoked?** A: Weight varies - we ordered two and they were not exactly the same weight. They were trimmed and ready to smoke. Best brisket we ever smoked! **Q: What is its "shelf life"... i.e. how long can it be refrigerated before it should be cooked?** A: If left in the package and unopened, about 3 to 4 days but that also depends on how cold you keep your refrigerator, the colder the better. It is ideal to cook, smoke, or grill the same day the product is thawed. Always inspect every piece of meat you buy for bad odors and signs it may be spoiled regardless of where you buy it. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best quality brisket for the price! *by D***T on April 13, 2019* I've been smoking brisket for well over 25 years and know a thing or two about smoking brisket as a backyard cook.

I simply placed it in the freezer intending to use later. When I thawed it out I was appalled when I first handled the brisket because not being my first ever brisket it did not pass the bend test you normally use to initially select your purchase. It hand virtually no pliability at all after thawed. This brisket was advertised as championship ready quality but had i picked this brisket out of a store freezer,this is certainly would not be one that I would select. But because I put trust that someone who would advertise that their products to be of championship quality would fill an order with such a disgustingly low grade and poorly represented selection,I feel like a victim of bait and switch. Because of the close proximity to Thanksgiving I decided to make the best of it and prepared the brisket and as I feared it disappointed and I will never patronize this company again and I strongly caution anyone who is considering a purchase from Nebraska by mail against it. ## Frequently Bought Together - Nebraska Star Beef Angus Brisket Whole, 8 Pound - Nebraska Star Beef Prestige Steaks - 12 Packs with Signature Seasoning (12-14oz Ribeyes) - Nebraska Star Beef Angus Ground Beef (10-1lb packages) -Prestige, ground beef, frozen hamburger, hamburger patties, frozen burger, ground beef 80/20 --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.br/products/63720875-angus-brisket-whole-8-pound](https://www.desertcart.com.br/products/63720875-angus-brisket-whole-8-pound) --- *Product available on Desertcart Brazil* *Store origin: BR* *Last updated: 2026-06-10*
