Remind me again why they leave it lying about for over a month but once I buy it I have 4 days to cook it or it goes in the bin.

I guess because while it's being matured it hasn't been prepared into individual steaks and still part of a much bigger piece of the carcass. Once it has been cut up the meat is exposed to the atmosphere and therefore susceptible to spoiling.

Isn't this the normal price

What is the usual price please?

£4.49

NEVER think the price of steak is a good price if it is stated as the price per steak - it makes NO SENSE...
You must work out the cost per weight - if it's £4.49 for 200g then that's about £25 per Kilo - EXPENSIVE or at best normal, however if you get a 500g steak then its about £12.50 - great price... It's a MARKETING CON if the weight is not part of the advert. Also - if prepacked then you'll likely get an estimated weight and by my experience your steak will not be bigger than the estimated weight - another MARKETING CON.. BUYER BEWARE..

I don't know the weight of the steak in this case but NO HEAT ADDED...

Exactly not a deal this is always it price

Garry, It's 227g or 8oz steak it works out to be £19.60 per kg for this prized breed and cut. A bargain I think. It sells out quickly when available.

Is it still on /available?
