Did you notice in the new Bullsheet that KCBS Members can get a Restaurant Depot Card...

Here is what it says:

Thanks for the heads up. There are two within a 30 minute drive from me and have been looking for a way to get a membership. Thanks again.

That is great news. I have been trying to get a membership for years.
I designed their security systems and CCTV for all of CA and still could not get a membership card.
Thanks for posting

Paul,

I have been wanting in there for a while, and FINALLY, FINALLY, a way in. I might not have seen the ad in the Bull Sheet until you pointed it out...got my November issue of the KCBS Bull sheet yesterday in the mail, and viola' there it was on page 5. I have already pulled down the ad and checked it out too. Thanks for posting this, I know I'll be using the heck out of this one.

And you needed a card WHY?

 

[warthog]

Do you still require a reseller certificate and TAX ID as the Restaurant Depot site states? Is just a KCBS membership sufficient?

 

[beer-b-q]

I called the one in Kansas City and talked to the girl in CS, She said all we need is your KCBS Card and the access number which is the ID # for KCBS and they will issue a free card.

Apparently it is something special worked out with KCBS for their members.

So if you are not a member of KCBS this is a good reason to join...

 

[eaglewing]

You got that right

 

[scarbelly]

So I can use my new KCBS card somewhere LOL

 

[bbq engineer]

So I dug out my membership info, and Mrs. Engineer and I went shopping...We stopped in at the membership desk, and the young girl at the desk asked us a few questions, and got us signed up. She had no idea what KCBS was so I helped her out. We got out card for $0.00 and off we went. There are a lot of things in there but one thing that was of interest was the Royal Oak lump charcoal...17.6 lbs for $8.79. Lots of meat and cheeses that I'm gonna smoke.

Here is a pic of my new membership card on the envelope of my KCBS membership info...Very cool Paul...Very Cool.

I have had membership a few years.Definetly good deals on meats,food.

I also get alot of commercial grade hardware.

Butcher Paper is the way to go...
Ask about their Butcher paper holders/cutters... My store said they were selling them off cuz they weren't gona carry them anymore. I got one for $10 and it's a $50 item... then I bought 1000ft of butcher paper. I love it.

Why would you sell the paper and NOT the holders/cutters??

 

[mossymo]

I have never heard of this business before, is it like Sam's Club as far as prices and bulk purchases?

 

[the dude abides]

That's a sweet deal. I wish there was one closer to me than Kansas City. I don't think I'm up for an 8 hour round trip drive for meat.

 

[alx]

Sort of a sams club for restaurants.Huge meat selection at ours,tons of deals on catering/restaurant supplies.Lots of produce...

You normaly need a business/charity license to become member,so not open to general public...

I've been going to my local RD for about a year now, just came back from picking up some stuff for a cook I have to do on Friday.
I noticed they were carrying whole pigs for $1.49 a pound.
None of my cookers will accomodate a whole pig, so I was sol.
Shoulders were .72 a pound for single pieces, cheaper if you pick up a case.
Butts were just over a buck a pound. I grabbed a case (40lbs) of party size wings, that are already sectioned for $1.79 a pound. Saves me a lot of work being cut up already.

I have heard that if you are a bussiness owner (I'm one of those) you can get a card. If not I guess I will have to check into getting into the KCBS so I can get into this place I hear the prices are great.
