Any good meat sales?

[SmokinVOLfan]

Anyone seen any good deals on meat for super bowl week?

In my area saw boneless half ribeyes for $5.99 lb, Boston butts for $.99 lb, and spare ribs for $1.99 lb.

Was hoping to find a good deal on brisket!

Waiting on the ads. Most places in my area run Thurs-Wed, or Fri-Thurs. Not much in the prior ads. I would love to see Butts for $0.99, I haven't seen less than $1.99 since last spring :(

Most ours run Wednesday to Tuesday. Usually run butts $.99 lb 3-4 times a year and I try to stock up. Down to my last two in the freezer right now

I was hoping for a brisket sale this week, too. I saw Costco has some Prime for $3.29/lbs.

Completely off topic but y’all got any good recipes for smoked bologna? I picked up 2 5 lb chubs on clearance last weekend but have never done it. Most the threads on here I find are for making bologna

Kroger’s was trying to sell them for $3.99 lb choice last week...insane. I can go to Costco and get prime for $3.49 lb. Bought a prime there a couple months ago for $2.99

I am currently in Sandy UT, just left WinCo and picked up 2 Tri-Tip for 3.48/lb.
I hope my job is close to done by next Tuesday so I can pick up more to take back home.

I used to just get Select from Cash N Carry when they'd drop 'em down to $2.49, and then I finally bought a Prime from Costco and decided I'd never buy another Select as long as I didn't have to. I'll still get Choice when the price is right, but for a few more cents per lb, Prime really does make a difference.

When my freezer is getting low, I'll use my phone's calendar to make note of "sell or freeze by" dates on the packaging of meats I want to restock. It doesn't always work due to product turnover, but stopping in a day or two before that date I've seen amazing "Price Reduction" price tags that are often 60-80% off the regular price or sale price. I've only passed on one deal because the meat looked sketchy.

I don’t buy much select meat only one store around here sells it. How big a difference in select and choice? Only reason I ask is I scored about a 12 pound whole NY strip roast a couple months ago on a crazy good deal and froze it but it’s select and didn’t even realize till I had gotten it home.
