Brisket is at robinsons right now for 340P a kilo and it's all bone and white fat with occasional tiny bit of beef in it...
You touched a nerve there, I love REAL Corned Beef!!! but I have only in a few places, like 4 * Hotels, been happy with what they had to offer, best so far was a Hotel in Iloilo, every morning at Breakfast they had a large tray full of it... I have seen a sign outside the place left hand side from "Why Not", that's "Lighthouse" if I am not mistaken, advertising "Home made" Corned Beef but I failed to check it out...
thanks permres... i've been to robinson's twice since you posted that you found beef brisket with a spice pack and i couldn't find any in the freezer section, i asked at the meat counter and a guy went to a freezer section with porterhouse and other specialty meats and said it was ''out of stock,'' guess everyone rushed down there and cleaned them out. i also checked lee plaza and hypermart. so did anyone brine it/ how'd it turn out. thanks... norm : ))~
Today at noon Robinson's Market in the Deli section had a Murphy's brisket corn beef (frozen) for 1,172p, might still be there.
