A Tri Tip for my Record Book!

[clifish]

What a disappointment - started slicing up the 2/3's of the Tri Tip that was left and it was 50% fat - terrible - total disappointment. Was looking forward to giving it to a friend for a sandwich and it went into the garbage can instead. Must have been one seriously obese steer...

That blows, sorry to hear that.

I think I am going to start looking for Choice instead of Prime because Prime is starting to become an excuse to over-charge for fat. The internal fat on that thing was disgusting and lately the fat cap on them has been getting thicker and thicker - to make them weigh more - so the shareholders of the supermarket chain can continue to take money out of their fellow American consumer's wallets...

I was bugging my butcher to get them with fat caps, but my second one with fat cap had the exact same issue, so I went back to asking for trimmed. Bummer. Be good for a broth though!

I should mention that while the Tri Tip disgusted me, the cheap Chinese slicer I bought a few weeks ago really did a nice job slicing that crap pile of fat into beautiful paper thin slices of garbage.

Was hard to decide to give that a like or laugh! Glad you're happy with your slicer.
