ThreeDJ16 Posted September 23, 2008 Report Share Posted September 23, 2008 Sam's has baby back ribs on sale for $3.99lb. Normally I don't buy them, as St. Louis trimmed spare ribs are usually better and more meaty when slow cooking. But walking by the display cooler, I noticed a couple of the vacuum sealed 3 rack packs were only $12 where the rest are $24. So stopped and checked it out....hehe....someone mislabeled about half a dozen packs as pork loin at $1.97lb...hehe. Needless to say I could not pass up the opportunity to get loin back ribs for $1.97lb. Just wish I had more freezer space as I only grabbed two packs. Anyway, just goes to show a careful eye in the meat section can yield you a good bargain every now and then. Usually I run across something like this a couple times a year. -=Jasen=- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was in Lowes the other day and saw an 8.9 cubic foot chest freezer floor model, was $289 marked down to $150. Now I've got lots more freezer space Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because, I really like the Sams cyrovac packs of babybacks (3 slabs). The only thing is "You have to get the heaviest of the packages!!!!" 8 Lbs or so. The lighter weight packages aren't so good, not enough meat. IMHO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
