Sorry about the title ... but I really don’t know where to put this. We used to put this sort of thing in the channel related to the specific type of meat. Now, it’s now so clear. Maybe Huskee can help me point it in the right place
Anyhow, I was in my local Safeway today. And they had nice chunks of strip loins in cryovac. That they packed today. For $5.99/lb ... which is crazy welll priced. I bought a 6 lb piece, in the the cryovac, for $35.
Also, I do feel like we lost something in the conversation with the redefining of the channels to no longer allow general discussion of "meat stuff" in the various food channels.
Our local grocery store has some very good Choice NY strips for $5.99 a pound about once a month. I wouldn't say I time my trips to the grocery store when they are that price but I totally time my trips to the grocery store when they are that price. And a few always seem to end up in my cart.
Large Big Green Egg, Weber Performer Deluxe, Weber Smokey Joe Silver, Fireboard Drive, 3 DigiQs, lots of Thermapens, and too much other stuff to mention.

Nice grab, local grocery up here had same for $180.00 a bundle.
Too rich for my blood so stocked up on chicken breast and peameal bacon. Both where 60% off.
Great deal! My problem is that our local Smith's/Kroger (and sometimes Albertson's) often has good deals on meat but I usually have to pass 'cause I need an extra freezer and in these Covid hoarding days I can't find any. Even if I could I don't have room for another one. Maybe I should use up some of the frozen food I've been hoarding?
Scotch: Current favorite- The Arran (anything by them), Glenmorangie 12yr Lasanta, sherry cask finished. The Balvenie Double Wood, also like Oban 18yr, and The Glenlivet Nadurra (Oloroso sherry cask finished) among others. Neat please.

Still put it in the meat's sub-channel for now, or if it's about a store or meat shop then use that (Butchers & Meat Suppliers) please. I'll move this one to Butchers & Meat Suppliers > Big Box Stores/Supermarkets. We're working on getting more non-recipe sub-channels in place so that both Recipes and other food talk have all the different meat & food categories. It's definitely not off topic, Off Topic is for things like jokes, sports, pets, cars, etc. If a topic is about food, cookers, cooking gear, places to buy food or gear, etc then it doesn't go in off topic.
