Colder than a witches tit outside but will be firing up the grill for steak this evening. I love the prime Black Angus thick-cut rib eyes we get every once in a while from Sam's. I asked my wife if she could pick up the whole loin so I could cut my own but they were out of stock. Still, I won't complain.

Medium rare, butter, Montreal seasoning....

What you guys having?

Oh, my god, those steaks they sell there are so far beyond awesome it's scary. Here, they run about $8 a pound, whereas walmart sells their strips for over $12 a pound!!!

Yep, 8 bucks a pound. A deal that we can't pass up. I say we but I seldom get to Joplin being a hermit and all.

If you EVER make it to joplin, let's meet for a beer.

The other day I was there,and looked at the clearance meat, and they had a package of strips down to $6. Two steaks, 3 pound package. At least 2 inches thick. Jeeze, I almost couldn't stand it. We didn't have the time to avail ourselves of it.

One day I went in there, and they had a big stack of flank steaks for about $2.50 a pound. I bought maybe 15 or more pounds. gave half of them to family, and had steak for 3 days. God, I love a medium rare flank steak.

Costco has better meat. Super thick cut sirloin steaks for $4.29... eye of round roasts for 3.79... whole rib-eye primals for $7.99...

And when at Costco or other vender look for "prime in choice clothing". There is a range for each grade and some Prime is very close to Choice and visa versa

Here are some Choice NY strips that were more marbled than some Prime

I think steaks that look like that are illegal in MA.

I found a piece of waygu in the case at my local supermarket once. How it got there I don't know because they don't sell it. It was marked at $2 off because no one would buy it because it was so marbled. It was the best steak I ever had.
