ive just bought a meat slicer, so currently going through a crazy 'buy loads of meat phase' anyway, in trying to find some good meat at reasonable prices, just thought i'd share
Someone else might be able to confirm the price for you
Also, this reads like personal preference, not objectivity.
Not colded, - I'll treat it as a prototype
i have included them, theres just no cheaper comparisons, unless u can post some?
Agree with u that people should try butchers more, perhaps u can compare these prices with all the butchers in the country
More fun to get someone else to do it for ya
£4/Kg on Lamb is HOT LIKE YO MOMS
It was only matter of time.
ALDI:
British Large leg Pork JOINT £2.99KG
British whole leg Lamb £3.99/Kg
There, done it for you
Perhaps you should consider cutting down...?
Just made a special trip to Aldi for their offer - waste of time - not even an empty shelf - ripped off!
On my way to Asda...
Many thanks OP!
not too sure what your point is? for example,supermarket free range chicken isnt as good as supermarket caged chicken?
echo that
no problem with added water, but the price/weight isnt a very honest reflection of what youre buying for the price. Buy a needle and inject your own water, or just cook it properly and it wont be dry anymore.
How do you know if someone's a vegetarian? They'll tell you.
Seriously though. This person put a LOT of effort and time into writing this post, and you vote it cold because of your own personal prejudices?
Should I slander all fruit and veg, or vegetarian/vegan offers because I eat meat?
Think before you belittle valuable information next time because of your superiority complex.
Hot from me Omnivore Mmmmm
haha sounding a bit bitter there. I've been cooking a long time, my son will only eat the breast of the chicken, I do know how to cook. But I take your point about the weight. Buying a needle and injecting my own water.... not really that simple.
aldi fresh lamb leg was advertised at £4.99, which i suspect was their original price before they knew asda and tesco were cheaper, not too sure whether or not it is actually £3.99 instore or not, perhaps someone can confirm.
wow, i respond to your comment and you call me bitter lol, was hardly that, anyway, youre not the only person thats been cooking a long time, injecting water into meat really IS that simple.You obviously never read the post description, or youre just one of these oddballs who has to find fault in everything,
anyway....
THANKS to everyone who appreciates this post for what it is
I had a meat slicer once, had to sack one of the lads because he kept putting his di** in her. Nightmare it was.
Good work, Hot.
