This was at Costco. Can't imagine what beef prices are in the more niche grocery stores. I was at Costco , a few days ago. _Pot roast and stew meat were both over $7/lb. Steak damned near $30! I bought 1 pkg each stew and pot.... divided and vac packed the stew at home and that's it. Bought the crap out of chicken and pork.... With 2 blocks of cheese and 4 jars of macadamia nut clusters, the bill was $352. Caribou in the freezer is less than 2 months away, tho. Gonna chute the chit out of them this year! 35 salmon next week, maybe... You seen the price on red salmon lately???? I could get lucky on a moose too, maybe.

I got some Choice NYstrip yesterday at the food lion for 7.99 lb.
Looked decent too.
I had inlaws over and didn’t want to break into my ribeye stash. They would only complain about the ribeye being ‘fatty’ and also they like everything cooked WELL. which is fuggin retarded my opinion.
Well done and ask for catsup every time.
Nope. NY strips for them.
But still. I mighta/shoulda bought a few more.
They wanted $17.99 for ribeyes in the CeeBee Ragland NFW What the hell is wrong with people? Can't imagine cooking a steak well done. I'd have feed them burger, with catsup. Damn!
Someday someone may kill you with your own gun, but they should have to beat you to death with it because it is empty.

We people that raise the beef,we don’t make hardly anything on them,take one to sale they say prices are down,if I didn’t enjoy fooling with them I wouldn’t have them ,just raising them for someone else to make the money off them Messed up deal, just like timber. We need to go back to more local options, there just isn't many because the big producers killed of most small meat cutters.

In 20 years if having a Costco membership, I have never bought beef there. I’ve always been able to find much better prices on the same grades and cuts at the local grocery stores. They’re sometimes double on my favorite cut - ribeye.

My wife and I along with our 3 adult kids and their families are eating our way through 1000+ pounds of grass fed beef that we had butchered and vacuum sealed for a little over $1000. Not as good as grain fed heavy beef but pretty good. One of the animals was a 10 year old barren mean ass cow that was slick fat, the other a 600 pound steer that was on feed and grass. On the huge cow steaks I soak them a while in a mixture of tenderizer and baking soda in water for about 30 minutes and grill 'em over a wood fire. Considering the $$$ savings and that our daughter is not reduced to making do with ground turkey we can put up with what tastes a whole lot like the bison meat I've eaten. Not going to pay $10 to $15 a pound for something only marginally better.

Piggly Wiggly brand ketchup. 😃 Used to come in a big glass bottle. Looked kinda like those stupid plastic smoker station things. LOOOOOOOOOONG skinny neck, through which very little catsup would flow.

People want to get paid real money to work on a kill floor up to their belly button in blood and gore. I think you are right. There is something addictive about owning cattle. A person could spend that time and make a lot more money. I bet the average cow herd east of the Mississippi River is less than 50 head grown animals total.

I wouldn’t say working on kill floor is real money. I worked the line when I was 20, then got smart and and went to school. That line of work will make you old quick, it was like working out 10 hours a day.

I used think besides groids, my inlaws were the ones that put ketchup on steak and took it well-done.
Then. I met Renegade50.
Same thing.
Could probably cook beef liver to well-done and slop it with catsup and none would be the wiser.

Just glad I bought a 1/4 from the neighbor rancher this past spring for a decent price. Just the two of us. And I got the heart, tongue, and liver thrown in for free. Those are ALL MINE............................and the dogs!

Had some Costco NY strip yesterday. Only Choice, but was $8 or $9 a pound a month and a half ago. Used to buy the tenderloin, then Prime sirloin, but not sure I can force myself to pay those prices now.
What fresh Hell is this?
