Tough, chewy, never again

My mouth watered as I sliced open the packaging. Since it said fully cooked, I bit off a piece and it was terribly tough and chewy. I tried another piece. Same. I was incredibly disappointed, but I put it in a pan with a little water, topped with some barbecue sauce hoping that might help to tenderize, and heated according to the directions. I ended up with barely edible, tough as shoe leather, slices. My first time buying and my last. I can't risk another 20 buck.

beef?

This looked and tasted more like bacon with some smoke flavoring added. Have had beef brisket many times. This product did not look nor taste like beef. Will not buy again. From what I can recall, this is the only disappointment I’ve had with Sam’s products.

Very good brisket

I do not write very many reviews but I do like to read them. I purchased my Sadler's brisket from Sam's about a month ago. I had read some of the reviews and I did not know what to expect. Personally I thought that the brisket was easy to prepare. It had a great taste and had only minimal fat. I am very happy that I bought this and I do plan to buy again soon.

Not the best quality, but better than others

I bought three of these at different times. The first two were wonderful and easy to prepare. Not the best quality, but much better than any alternative store-bought beef brisket that I can think of. But the last package was not cut correctly, tasted like beef jerky, and was impossible to prepare without it being very tough. I tried microwaving, frying, steaming, baking, and even cold, and the result was fairly consistent -- tough and dry. I think that they need a higher standard of quality control.

Disappointing is an understatement

Pros… great price for what it is, if you want dry, flavorless, tough brisket. Cons…I tried one bite and the rest was left. Even my will eat anything hubby has had a hard time getting this eaten. Additionally this is overcooked so there’s no moisture and while there is a bit of smoky flavor, the dry, salty, tough as nails to chew flavor supersedes anything palatable.

Sooo Good!

Put this Heavenly Brisket in the airfryer on aluminum foil at 400° put folded paper towel in a bowel. Grabbed Stonewall Kitchen Roasted Garlic Aioli... felt like it was My Birthday. Not only will I buy more. But I'm going to try the dehydrator to make travel Brisket Snacks!!! Yumm!!!

Garbage

What a waste of $19 bucks! Wanted to do a BBQ night, something different got this and it was worse than dog food as a matter of fact my dog who eats any and everything did not want no part in this brisket. Tossed it after I warmed it after 1 bite, no one in my family of 5 liked it ended up ordering pizza.

Great BBQ sandwiches

I have only bought this once ( so far! ) so I don't know about quality control issues, but the one I got was delicious. I heated the slices in a pan with Phil's BBQ sauce ( from San Diego ) and served on toasted hoagie rolls with slaw and dill pickles on the side. Man oh man!!! Sooooo good !

Great taste & easy to prep

So, we picked this up, for a couple days we got out what we wanted to make a sandwich, nuked it and enjoyed. Then the majority of it went into a crockpot with just enough water to cover the bottom, bbq sauce on top and WOW! Super amazing for folks who either are too busy to cook or just don't want to spend all day tending a smoker.

Quality varies

I've purchased this item about half a dozen times now, and most have been what is expected, smoky and flavorful. But there has been a few that are very dry or overly fatty. Now fat does add flavor to a beet cut, but I do not like fat that is like chewing on rubber inner tube. The dry ones I've had are too lean and simply fall apart. I've yet to find a way to tell the quality before purchase, so if anyone has advice I'd love to hear it because the ones that are properly trimmed and not dried out are delicious! Personally I think the price is a bit too high for that level of quality to be confident in purchasing it regularly.
