Unbelievable Pork Butt Price

Former Member

Normally, I pay about $1.29 lb for a pork butt at the super walmart. Yesterday I was in the Kroger store and saw they actually had a whole pork butt, so I checked the price. They wanted $2.35 lb, I couldn't believe it. I about fell out right in the middle of the store. They must be awfully proud of their butt.

Case price this week at Sam's is $1.18/lb.

I think singles were $1.38.

Bama,
On top of that, if your Kroger is like mine, it was "enhanced" pork with 12% solution added. So that's some fine $2.35 a pound salt water!

This was the first time I had seen a butt anywhere except the super walmart. I haven't even seen any at the sam's here. So I was hoping to have found another place to buy them, but definitely not at that price.

I noticed the 12% added solution the other day at the store too. I used to get pissed off about 2-3% added salt water. I couldn't believe it. At least now they have to state it on the label.

Local Schnucks Grocery Store Here in Illinois had Boston Butts for $1.00/lb. Bought 5 to have some in the freezer. Sams loin back price was $3.43/lb last week. Checked my records, they were $2.09/lb in 2003. Bring back the good old days!
