      Have to say no on this one.

        I’d say it’s probably relative to disposable income or what your passion is, but for me it’s a big no.

          I have to say no on this one. I personally prefer dry aged prime to any other. There comes a point where there’s literally more fat than lean. Yes I have paid those kind of prices in the past, but found I liked prime better. I have one wagyu brisket left in the freezer then it will be all gone.

            Yes, when I bought a 2 ounce piece of A5 Wagyu for about $30. I try to stay between $15-$35/lb for prime steak (Costco to SRF). A few have been well worth the money, especially when the same steak can cost $60-$75 in a restaurant.

                I would love to try some high dollar meat, but the way my mind works is that I would be thinking with every bite that there goes $10 or $20 down the gullet.

                  The expensive booze helps with that!

                  Same here; there's no way I could enjoy it. 😀

                  In a restaurant, special occasions, yes. At home, no.

                    So I'm not alone then.

                    Years ago (early 90s) I took my bride to a restaurant that cost me about $150 without drinks. I had roast duck in rasberry sause and it was by far the best duck I have ever eaten. My bride had a filet mignon as tender as a Mother's love. That was a cheap meal compared to what the 4 geese I just shot in Texas three weeks ago cost me. Around $1,600 for about 2 pounds of goose breast meat. The good time with good friends made it worth every penny. But I don't think shopping at Omaha Steaks or Porter Road would give me the same fullfilment. Just sayin'.

                      For a special occasion, yes. On a regular basis no.

                        Not me. I watch for the Costco or Sams ads . Whole tenderloins on sale there is as far as I can go. That Hasty Bake can make a mighty fine 2 1/2 inch ( before cooking) steak. Sometimes, I do a whole one and slice off to meet the desired amount.

                          I have, twice, bought Wagyu beef. Once a brisket and once a tri-tip. Neither cost me $50/lb, let alone $150/lb. Neither actually was that great that I would do that instead of Prime.
