7 BUDGET Cuts That Are WAY Better Than Prime Rib

I’m breaking down seven budget-friendly beef roasts that can deliver a better value than prime rib, starting with the whole strip loin I call the prime rib killer. I take it from the meat counter to my smoker and carving board, comparing an $11-per-pound roast with prime rib at $25 per pound. I’ll share: • Why I think whole strip loin is a smarter Sunday-dinner buy • Six more budget roasts worth considering • What I’ve learned as a shopper with a spiral notebook, not a butcher • How I turn a more affordable cut into a centerpiece-worthy meal I’m Randy Vogel in Green Bay, Wisconsin, and I’m tired of paying restaurant prices for dinner at home. Tell me where you’re watching from and what prime rib costs at your store this week. #BudgetBeef #PrimeRib #SmokingMeat #BBQ #SundayDinner
