Sam's Choice Packers-$1.09

Hi Tom!

I just discovered a Sam's Club meat market in South Bend. Our local store does not have one.

I was in SB Wed. and talked with the meat Dept. manager. They buy only choice meats at ALL Sam's locations. He told me that Wal-Mart normally only sells select meats(that seems to be true in briskets). I saw whole beef tenderloins, choice grade, for only $8.99/lb. and chicken thighs for only $.77/lb.

I ended up buying a case of baby back ribs... 32.5lbs., 3/package cryovac for $2.86/lb. That is their regular price! The individual price was only $2.99/lb.

That is about HALF what I pay here in town! Unbelievable!!

Needless to say, I now travel with a cooler in the back seat!!

You who have a Sam's meat market are indeed lucky!

Howdy,Stogie.

You also stand a better chance of getting non injected meats.

That was our prices ,also.

Butts had gone up to $0.99/lb.,though.

Well, I just got one from Sam's (my wife is not so tolerant), but it was Choice, and I aced it! So, finally getting somewhere. Did the burnt ends thing, too. It was great, but I would like to learn more. So much fat on these packers' cuts. Doggit!
Best brisket to date.
