Local grocery store has 50% off Eye Rounds, Sirloin Tip, Bottom Round and Chuck. Which would be the best on the egg and how would you cook it????

    ShortRib,
    That's a pretty good sale. Worst case, buy some and put in the freezer for another date. Hell, I guess you could just put them outside??? HA HA

    ShortRib,[p]I would probably vote for the sirloin if it is thick enough.[p]

    Car Wash Mike,[p]I guess he could always ask the butcher to grind the chuck into hamburger (?) Just trying to think what to do with chuck roast.[p]Mac

    James,
    How thick do you think is "enough?" And what would you do with it?

    Car Wash Mike,[p]I like the idea of kabobs for sirloin. I think Jerky might be too much work. Pit beef peeks my interest, but I need to read up more about it.[p]Thanks for your ideas...

    Wardster,
    I had 2 beautiful fresh frozen Porterhouses (outside, here on the Tundra) up on top of my cabinet/ egg cart..... when I came home from work tonight all I could see was pieces of the red styrofoam container all over my deck. Some neighborhood dog had a feast of 2 frozen Porterhouse's.... all he left was styrofoam, plastic wrap (w/the price tag intact) and a little bit of 1 bone.[p]There's only one person to blame..... There just wasn't enough freezer space, and I didn't think it was that big of a deal. I'm in a residential neighborhood with leash laws and nothing running loose (at least I thought) [p]Mike in MN
