You Can SAVE $75 On Meat at Costco Using This Simple Butcher Trick!

📗 Save Over $1,000 on Meat With My Butcher’s Money-Saving Methods: https://salpetralia.com The Costco price per pound is real, but it only saves you money on the pounds you actually eat. One full Costco meat run saves a house of four about $75 against supermarket packs, and one pound in five gone gray in the refrigerator takes it down to about $26. In this video, I show you the simple butcher trick that keeps every dollar of the Costco price: break every bulk pack down into one-dinner portions the same afternoon you get home: Three free checks before you repack: the dinners in the pack, the date against what the refrigerator allows, and the room in your freezer Ground beef weighed into flat, scored one-pound bags that thaw overnight (cooked to 160 degrees) The chicken breast tray split into even cutlets, four to a bag with wax paper between (cooked to 165 degrees) The whole boneless pork loin cut into a Sunday roast and about seven packs of chops two fingers thick The Choice ribeye pack split two to a pack, salted for this week and frozen flat for later The boneless pork butt two-pack split the day you buy it, thawed in the refrigerator, never on the counter The one pack you should never open at home until the day you cut it Why I was wrong about zipper bags in the freezer The arithmetic: about $75 a run, about $26 if one pound in five is thrown out, and about $900 a year Chapters: 0:00 The Costco tag and the real price 1:10 Number one, the ground beef 2:29 Why the same afternoon matters 4:32 Number two, the chicken breasts 5:46 Number three, the whole pork loin 6:47 Number four, the ribeye pack 7:50 Number five, the pork butt two-pack 8:38 Number six, the pack you never open 11:03 Richie's chicken tray 11:57 The arithmetic 14:59 What to do this week This is not $75 every time you walk into Costco. It is one full monthly meat run for a house of four, at the tags I saw at the Costco in Sunset Park this fall, and a couple buying half as much saves about half as much. If your house eats the whole tray in two days, buy it and cook it. If you live alone and shop twice a week, the supermarket's one-pound pack is a fair buy. Raw ground meat and chicken keep a day or two in the refrigerator, steaks, chops and roasts three to five days, and a freezer held at 0 degrees keeps meat safe.
