I Bought A £10 WAGYU Brisket From ALDI...
Brisket is the king of BBQ, and when you can find a good one at the supermarket, you've got to give it a go. When I spotted this Wagyu brisket in Aldi, I couldn't believe my eyes - had to try it. At £10, it's worth experimenting with. Now, supermarket briskets can be hit or miss, but with the right technique you can still get excellent results. The key is managing your temperatures and knowing when to wrap.
