Joe Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 I was at ShopRite yesterday and skirt was at $14.99 a pound! More expensive than a NY strip now. A few years ago, you could get it at under $7 a pound! Wtf? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keyser_Soze Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 Meat prices are all over the place these days. It's called Covid-19. That is how the fuck it is more expensive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Posted July 13, 2020 Author Share Posted July 13, 2020 Beef prices in my area for completely normal. I think white people have caught on to the fact that skirt steak is delicious and have driven the price up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 Lbh, Covid was designed to attack poor, minorities. White people are not satisfied with the deaths so now they are jacking up food prices. I still can’t find fucking ramen noodles in stores. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I made Sanborn jelly with my picture But last time I went the only cup of ramen they had was the "Tradition" ramen and I am not a fan.

I thought you were poor and couldn't afford food? You're confusing and a liar. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think white people have caught on to the fact that skirt steak is delicious and have driven the price up. Quite possible... North Eastern folks seem to be embracing Southwest- Mex foods all of sudden for some reason. My sister has started making really good tacos and quesadillas and we never really ate Mexican food growing up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bacon Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 I don't like the lime flavor. This is my favorite. You can only get them a Walmart tho. I really love these as well. I can only find these at Kroger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bacon Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 Also, yeah, beef is hella jacked up in price. Chicken and Pork are fine price wise, although I have noticed bacon selling out a lot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hire brown people to cook it for me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dodger Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 Having skirt steak for dinner tonight, asked the gf how much it was and she said $38 for a couple pounds. That's definitely a ripoff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Littleronin Posted July 14, 2020 Share Posted July 14, 2020 Fucking cubed steak is $10.99/pound here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkStar189 Posted July 14, 2020 Share Posted July 14, 2020 Ground beef prices went up and then down in my area. I use 80/20 ground beef for grilling burgers and it went from $4.49 a pound up to $6.99 at my grocery store. Then like 2 weeks later it's back to normal. I don't buy steak often enough to know the prices. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoberChef Posted July 14, 2020 Share Posted July 14, 2020 Skirt steak prices were on the rise over the last 3 or so years as it became so notably popular in the food scene for being diverse, quick to cook, etc. There are alternative cuts that are comparable but I recommend seeking out your best local butcher shop and having a good conversation with them, what you intend to prepare, and build a rapport with them. Also, visited McCann's Local Meat Market in Rochester, NY (they have a freaking MEAT MACHINE!!!) last week and bought some amazing liver wurst (beef), beef mortadella, and a fan-freaking-tastic 50+ day dry aged bone in ribeye that I slathered on this amazing soy & fish sauce lacquer while cooking on offset heat on my grill over the weekend. That steak changed my life, it was like butter! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
