I liked the Color and the Bark...
« on: March 23, 2023, 05:47:18 PM »
You just don't see these prices around here much anymore.  So when I do, I have a friend who just loves BBQ Pork Butt.  So when I can make someone happy for $8, I am gonna try and do it!  A coat of molasses, brown sugar, & S n P!  What floored me, was checking local per pound prices.  We have 3 BBQ places in Mayberry...Shawn's & Uncle Elders is charging $22/lb., & Burnt Ends is Charging $18/lb.  That just shocked me!

I realize most of you all would make yours before you would by it in a BBQ Shop, but do you all know the price per pound around you?  The prices above just seem ludicrous!

Old Hickory in Owensboro has sliced pork for 16.75, and chopped pork for 10.95.  We don't go there as much as we used to, what used to cost us $25 now is closer to $35!

The 2 places in my town are getting $16/lb for pulled pork, and neither is better than  what can be made at home.   BBQ and steaks are 2 things I rarely order in a restaurant, always feel like I could have done better myself.

I am the same way.. Pricing aside, the quality and taste of my home cooked meat is exactly what we enjoy the most. Must be what we are used to..
