Even if you aren't a fan of SRF, this is one of their better deals.

Nice -- great PSA!

For those who've been following the SRF promotional drama, it's nice to be able to say "now THAT'S a deal!"

That's a great deal.  Just pulled the trigger.  I hope I have enough freezer space. 

SWMBO is going to be pissed.

Well done SRF!    Thanks for the heads up @HoustonEgger

Anyone who was griping about the 'up to' deals that doesn't take full advantage of this can shut it.

@HoustonEgger do you know how long the sale lasts?   

HoustonEgger

Nice! I have six coming in late next month. Delayed shipping option is wonderful. Thank you for the heads up!

Very intrigued about pulling the trigger here. For those who have smoked the brisket option included with this deal, how does it compare with a Costco prime? Do they still require trimming?

I have not smoked the SRF RR Brisket offered here but every packer brisket I have ever had from any source (including SRF) can use a trimming.  The amount is definitely a variable.  FWIW-

Got me again!

FYI - the ribeye caps are amazing.  I've never had anything like them.  I ordered two of the gold grade.

I hope so. Retail at almost $200 a pound. I was lucky enough to try a piece cooked by a very generous Egghead at the Salado Texas Eggfest afterparty.
It was amazing.

@buzd504 How did you prepare the ribeye caps?

Just grilled hot and fast to about 125.  S&P.  Carryover probably cooked it a couple more degrees.

Just my $0.02, but I reverse seared it and it was the best steak I'd ever had.  I say that alot, though, so take it with a grain of salt.  Here's a rib eye cap thread I started when I was thinking I might roll one before cooking.  (answer:  DON'T!)  Lots of good thoughts in the thread:

I really wanted to pull the trigger on a ribeye cap, but that price/pound ratio is insane.

Maybe next time

Nice deal. Picked up a few things, now to make room in the freezer.

I bought a nice 7 pound prime boneless ribeye roast for under $15 a pound.
Removed the cap and cut the center section into steaks. The whole thing was less than $100.00. Not SRF Gold but damn good. The free, center cut steaks were also excellent. Also had some cap that was purchased from Costco at my brothers. Also excellent.
I have placed a few orders from SRF with past sales. It's a treat for sure.
But I get more enjoyment finding the hidden gems labeled as choice in my local stores.

@HendersonTRKing 's  post above with the prior thread link is as he notes, full of great rib roast techniques, including the cap.  I encourage everyone to give it a go, you will impress yourself with the end results.  FWIW-
