The OP here is not the first good BBQ cook to suggest buying Prime meat to make a great brisket and it is certainly good advice. That said, if I have to pay for Prime beef to make a great brisket and still work hard at it, I will always choose to pull a vac packed, bought on sale $5.99/lb USDA Choice Ribeye from the freezer.
I'm not a worshiper either.

....yes I am.

I made a Thai soup and added smoked brisket. It gave it an added smokiness. Yum.
