The Meat Sale got Me.

[yankee2bbq]

Saw a box of pork spare ribs at our local Harps grocery store: $14.25, for a 15lb box. Pulled the trigger and bought it. Got it home safely and opened the box up:

All frozen together. Has plenty of frost on them. Hopefully not freezer burn. Looks like 5 racks. I plan on de-thawing them out and smoking all of them tomorrow. If I do the math correctly thats about $2.80 a rack.

I'd love to say smoking meat is cheaper than drugs.

I'd like to day that...

Yeah I keep telling myself it’s not as addictive as drugs. But, then again…..

Whoa! Next to dreaming about a barn-find Vette, that’s as good as it gets!

Van meat can be a little sketchy.

See the chest freezers in little trucks around here regularly. Cruising the apartments and trailer parks. None of them have generators.

Oh yes, I see those guys around here with "ribeye specials" all the time. A friend bought some and said they were very thin. Brave guy lol

Our Savealot has similar ribs in that price range at times. Bulk packed like that and small. They come from Swaggerty Farms who's core business is sausage.

I fell for that once just to see. 20 eyes for $29.95 " Very thin "
Good taste, nice little quick fry with some eggs and toast.

A little steak and eggs makes a great breakfast.

We have Harps here in NE Oklahoma Inola area also. Month or so they had the same Williams rib box sale here also. I picked up a box to try, pealed off one rack for the smoker. Good amount of meat/bone ratio. I went back the next day to get another box and all 20 boxes were gone. Guess he who snoozes looses.
