Sam's Club Ribeyes

maso

They opened a new Sam's club by my house. They had XL BGEs for $1200; I think I remember at least 6 on the floor. No other sizes though. They had some really good nice knives from a show guy there. I can't remember the brand but they felt nice, and had a "nice" price attached. I did however pick up some ~2" thick Ribeyes for $8/lb and decided to cook one up tonight. The Mrs. Isn't a big steak fan so she's eating leftover Cheesecake Factory from lunch. 

I like me some Sam's and since there's no Costco around, it'll do! 

Trying to enjoy a little eggin while dodging tornadoes and hell, sorry hail, here in OK!

Have a great Mother's Day weekend!

I do Sam's beef, pork butt, and salmon.  Nothing wrong with that.  I also buy some of their restaurant pots, pans and other cooking items.  That is where I buy my foil.

Their produce and cheese is also usually good. The big thing about Sam's is KNOW your " regular" pricing before you go in there. Not everything is a good deal. Lots of stuff is as much and even more than you might pay somewhere else.

I like their beef and pork. Even though they're not prime, the steaks there have always been excellent. I like the quality of their Boston butts too! Price is always right. I also buy a lot of other stuff there, breakfast items (oatmeal to go!), really anything. Luggage and even a TV! My wife won't let me go in unsupervised, haha!

I like Sams meat, Costco is a little better but still between the two I won't buy beef anywhere else.

Good looking steak!

This 18+ pounder came from SAM's. See my post last night about dry aging it for 62 days.

I saw your post @RRP , very nice! I can only imagine how they taste!

I'm curious about Sam's packaged beef (not the cryovac packages). Is it "blade tenderized" like Costco?  I hate when they do that but at Costco all their packaged beef is tenderized.  It should indicate that on the price label.

I can't say, to be honest, I've never noticed it, but I only am looking at the price usually! Hopefully someone will be able to answer.

I think that this varies from location to location. Unless they just started very recently, I have never seen it in their Gulfport store.
