What's for dinner?

I tossed them for years like most. I’ve been cooking them for several years now, I can’t think of a better cut off the top of my head.

We wasted nothing on a deer. Shanks were used for burger & sausage grinding. That's not picking on eating them in other ways! Your braised shank chunks look delicious.
 
We always made into burger. Kept for a few years as shanks but it was never anyone's favorite. Making them in burger this year.

Yes, that’s a good distinction. By toss what I should’ve said was toss them in the burger pile.

Cooked a couple more of my prime ribeye steaks the other day. I had those cut about 1.5" thick. Feel like the richest guy in the world eating on of those. Doesn't get much better. Had some grilled shrimp a few nights ago and grilled pork chops last night. I'm wearing out my pellet grill.

I may need to go to Costco to get some, but the strips @Catscratch posted looked really good too!
 
I bought a choice grade strip lion from Costco last spring. There is no comparison to the prime graded ribeye. The ribeye blows it out of the water for me, but that's personal preference. The prime ribeye that we bought is probably the best steak I have ever had. I cooked the last ones 5 mins per side @ 500 degrees on my pellet grill. Then I let them rest in a glass pan for 15 mins covered with tinfoil and a kitchen towel. Just look at all that wonderful dipping juice leftover in the pan. I doubt I will ever be able to buy a choice graded ribeye ever again after having prime.

Mine are from home grown steers. No clue what they'd grade, but they're decently good.

Anyone want to share what those prime ribeye's from Costco cost per pound? I've never been in one of those stores but I'm starting to think about it!

Strip loin is a completely different cut from ribeye. I'd take a choice ribeye over a prime NY strip steak any day. In fact, ribeye is pretty much the only steak I buy anymore. Even picanha has become overpriced for what it is.

I like to buy beef at Meijer. They sell Angus beef, and when it goes on sale, you can get incredible steaks for very good prices.

I think he paid $20/lb for a USDA Prime rib roast. I checked just now and the website says a USDA Choice rib roast is $15.83/lb. Those are boneless roasts.

For perspective, right now Meijer wants $20/lb for USDA Choice bone-in rib roasts.

When I bought my prime from Costco a couple weeks ago they were running a 3 day flash sale in store. It was not advertised. I was just in the right place at the right time. They were $75 off the listed price at the register. This $262 ribeye became became $187 at check out. I paid $14.27 lb. for this one.


It was so damn good I sent the wife back a day later to get another one. It was a smoking good deal to anything else you can find. The second one was a little bigger so closer to $14.70/lb. All I do is cut them into steaks with my fillet knife. I don't trim anything off.


Local butcher shops are selling mostly choice grade ribeye and they want $23-27 lb. for an inferior steak. Costco sells whole choice strip lions for $9.99 lb. I will have a hard time buying anything but prime again.

Wow, you're getting a KILLER deal. Was that sale nationwide, or just local?

I think it was nationwide November 14-16. I saw videos about it on youtube a few days after it was over. Also heard they were talking about it on Reddit. I asked Grok on X and it says Costco also likes to run this deal again around the Christmas to New Years time frame. I will probably buy another one if I am lucky enough to get in on that deal again. For sure it was a killer deal. Tried a couple T bones from a local butcher shop a few months back. $45 for 2 steaks and they were not very good.

Probably finished on silage instead of corn. Can't beat corn fattened when it comes to taste. Speaking for myself of course.

If you happen to hear about that deal again, please post a note up here. I'd pick up a Costco membership for a deal like that.

We eat wild game and fish about 95% of the time, but at the cabin we like to grill up beef rib eyes over an oak and cherry wood open fire. I've never had a steak from a restaurant as good as the steaks we grill out.
 
I bought some beautiful select ribeye's one time. They looked better than most Primes I have bought. I will never do that again. I buy choice or prime fillets for the wife and daughter and prime ribeye's or strips for my son and I. My older son prefers boneless skinless chicken breasts. Where is that frowny face?
