Finally hit it right on our 120 mile one way trip to Costco. First off nice thick Sword Fish steaks. I have never seen them at our Costco, great for the grill. Next I was looking for Prime brisket and they only had a few choice flats in the case. Turned around and there was their butcher with a cart full of Prime full packers. He asked me what i wanted and said definitely a Prime. He said that there were two in the pile that really caught his eye. He located them and said either of these. They looked great and i grabbed one. We bought lots of other stuff too. Best of all at checkout we had a $390. rebate voucher. We got out of there for a hundred bucks. Sometimes timing is a great thing, doesn't usually work that way. We also got some nice whole crabs for a crab pickin dinner tonight.

Way to go Capn’! It’s always good to ask the butcher what you need if you don’t see it in the case. Last year I was looking for some beef ribs, there was none in the case. I tapped on the clear door and one of the butchers came out and I told him what I was looking for. He said hold on and came back a few minutes later with some ribs for me.

Good job! I was at my local Krogers yesterday and in the manager special section scored 2 Prime Ribeye steaks (3 lbs total), 5 Prime Filets (2 lbs total) and a Choice Flat Iron Steak (1.4 lb) for about $80.
Isn't it great to find good deals. Love my Krogers.

So, what you are saying is that you took one of the two prime brisket from the same Costco that I shop, which is on my list for our Saturday shopping trip... Sounds all in all like a score. I used to say walking into Costco was an automatic $100, but lately it is closer to $300..

captainlee That is the store we typically go to depending on what other stops we have to make. Sometimes the one out on Powers is more convenient. The good news is that in speaking with the meat market manager, they received new stock daily. We are in there every other week and still manage to spend between $200-300 without adult beverages. I never can seem to figure what we are buying so much of..

Just thought I would mention that Costco had plenty of prime briskets at $3.49/lb. We also some how managed to get out with spending only $150. I have no idea what we must have forgotten.

You did good today, glad you found a prime. You forgot lots of stuff !!!!
