Just bought two choice bone prime rib roast for $5.99 per pound at ALDI.  HyVee is selling select at $7.99 per pound.  I thought it was a  good deal.

    I'm seriously thinking about grabbing one or two to grind up for chili...wonder how that would work...as rib eye typically has good marbling. Any thoughts?

    Nice price. But wouldn't that be a Choice Ribbon Roast?

    Most every package of uncooked meat I buy that didn't come from the butcher says cook to 160 on it. Lawyers came up with that.

    Welcome to America!  They don't do that, generally, in Europe.

    Food supply here has historically been crappier, lawyers better.

    Nice purchase. The cook to 160ºF is the result of needle tenderizing I think. Surface bacteria can be "spread" into the interior, so cook to oblivion to ensure all the nasties are dead. Seldom followed advice on a rib roast, I'd bet. 

    Was shopping this morning and saw a number of US cars in the Safeway parking lot. Talked to a guy at the meat counter, he was buying AAA rib roast (same as US Choice) for $6.49CDN, or about $4.85US per pound. Cross border in reverse.

    Must be a regional thing. I went to our Aldi today for the first time and the meat selection was quite limited and there were no prime rib roasts. One thing that surprised me were the dozens and dozens of HUGE Butterball brand turkeys. I don't think there was a one under 28 pounds and at $1.69 a pound that wasn't a great bargain - no wonder they still had so many!
