Wagyu brisket?

[Nagaburns]

Hi Guys

Is it worth reaching deeper into my pockets to buy wagyu brisket for comps?

Does anyone on here use them exclusively, are they that much better?

Thanks in advance,

They are definitely a great brisket, but I wouldn't drop that kind of cash, unless I'm winning the rest of the categories.

exactly! get your technique down first, then work on your recipe, then drop the money... if you spend $120-$180 on a single brisket then to come out right you need to win brisket category at every contest you cook....

Thanks for the answers, I'll give it a miss for a while and see how I get on next year

they are amazing briskets. I would wait until you are in the top 5 or so then I would start using them maybe. technique will get you in the top 10 everytime in my opinion. recipe closes the gap, then moving to something like that
