My local butcher has bacon wrapped fillets for $30.99 #
Not getting them.
Choice whole packer brisket $5.99#
Not getting that either.

Milk $3.79 gal.

Just came back from Shamrock's Food Service Warehouse a bit ago.
Meat prices are definitely up.

If meat prices continue to rise the way they have been a lot of small family owned butcher shops will be closing.  Just my opinion

And probably more vegans....

For some good news for a change, my wife scored some 80/20 ground beef at Meijer's for $1.99/lb.! 

Sigh, here in San Diego county, 85/15 and 80/20 are $5.99/lb.

Add a Dollar to that and we would not even be able to get 70/30!

I got four pounds of 80/20 at a local market for $3.79/lb and was happy to get it.  For some reason Sam's does not have 80/20 anymore.

Yes meat like other food products continue to sky rocket in price however I will continue to support my butcher.  They are a small family owned business who have always treated me fairly over the years so I might by less but will continue to support them. 

Local Hy-Vee grocery store had brisket for $2.98/lb I waited to long and they were out along with all the Hy-Vee's in the area. Got a rain check though on it.

I hope this is a trend throughout the Nation.  I know President Biden is trying to apply pressure on the Meat industry and Beef implicitly.  So I hope this is a by-product!

I had someone come up today selling cases of frozen meat.  The very fast talking man said it would round out to be about $11.00 a pound for a mixture of steaks and one box of burgers.  I took a pass on it.  What normally would sell for $600 he would sell for $450.  It was an easy decision for me being my freezers were full already.  I wanted to keep the pamphlet, but he wanted it back.

Where I don't normally buy meat from Walmart I may have to.  Sam's Club is higher plus the packages are too big for the high cost.

I swung by my local Costco in Livermore, CA on Friday.  The prime brisket price floored me....$5.99 per lb.

That was the price I saw for Select at Sam's today.  I glanced at the meat price labels as I pushed my cart past them and decided they were all too high for me to buy any meat today.  I will (and probably should be anyway) continue to eat what I have in my freezer.  And, they had no frozen chicken wings again.  But lots of toilet paper.

Been trying to do this for 18 months, and now with lots of stuffed green peppers, red enchilada sauce and a lot of berries in it, it is even more imperative!
