It's Wednesday! Meat on sale.

[peculiarmike]

Local market has spare ribs, two slabs in cryovac, $1.29 lb., whole brisket in cryo, $1.29 lb. - 4th of July sale.
Baby backs $3.99 lb., not on sale.
Spares are the rib of choice. Price, meaty, flavor, big ol' bones to throw back over your shoulder.
(OK, she doesn't let me throw them over my shoulder)

Mike:

Sounds like there is going to be a lot of good eating down your way. I'm hoping to get down to the store today and see what's on sale although I already am committed to some BB ribs for the weekend.

 

[pigcicles]

Go Get Em Mike! Sounds like you're gonna stock up on some smokin groceries.

 

[peculiarmike]

Got my eye on a SmokyOky method brisket! Gonna check that "jiggle".

 

[ultramag]

We are getting ripped off down here. Brisket $1.48 lb. and $1.59lb. 2-pack cryo. Ours should be at least as cheap, everybody knows us hillbillies ain't got no money.

What stores are the prices you mention from Mike? I have been known to make a meat run on the way home from work.

 

[bbq bubba]

That aint half bad Chad, spares are $1.99/lb and brisket is $1.59/lb (if you know where to look) prices keep on rising!!

 

[peculiarmike]

I hear you about the hillbillies and no money! Know 1st hand. Only hillbilly ever had any money was Jed Clampitt.

Apple Market in Peculiar. Take the Peculiar exit, then the 1st right between the two banks. They put out a sale ad every Wednesday and have a 12 hour meat sale every so often with some good buys. I'll keep you posted.
I went for a brisket, already have ribs in the freezer. The "jiggle" thing.

 

[ultramag]

Thanks, I'll check them out Sat. morning on the way home. Ya know, if you time it just right I could come by and help check to see if the brisket is done. Maybe between us we can remember the proper jiggle for the SmokyOky brisket.

 

[hillbillysmoker]

You all must be talking bout me.

 

[peculiarmike]

Y'all ain't the only hillbillies around. Some escaped and moved west a bit.

"Folks said, "Jed, move away from there".

Take your shoes off, sit a spell.

 

[bbq bubba]

Believe it or not, there's a couple of us up here in the great white north too!

 

[peculiarmike]

Yeah. I spent 11 years in the tundra up in Minisoda.
Loaded my snow blower in my pickup, drove south until someone asked me what that thing in the back was. Figured I'd gone far enough.
Seriously liked Minnesota though.

Dang Ya'll I wish I knew where these stores are ya'll are talking about. I found spare ribs on sale also here in Phila. just 2.89 lbs yahoo what a deal. I forget what the brisket went for, but I know it had to be a lot.
