cdavis That was the normal sales price for the most part, back before the world turned on it’s side into this tailspin.
HerbcoFood That’s a great price, I am happy when I find them at $0.97 a pound. I am going to pick up two briskets today at $1.47 a pound. My wife saw the ad and told me to go early to get them.

I don’t even know which pork thread to put this on, there are so many, buy my local grocer has pork butts $0.88/lb! That is great for me, I just so happen to plan on making 25lbs breakfast sausage and 25lbs of chorizo next week.
HerbcoFood Thanks for the heads up just looked at the 2 heb closest to me and one was 1.49, but the other one east of me was .88 and the ribeye roast are looking good too.

mrobisr I could have sworn in years past HEB had the Prime1 ribeye roasts for $9.99/lb.

HerbcoFood couldn’t say i have to make a special trip to shop there, so i don’t keep up with the prices very much, but that would make sense. Last time I was there I looked and they were 24.99, so this price looks good for now.

I keep reading that 30 days are the best, how long did you age?

HerbcoFood well now with that being said I might have to try 2 or if I can find one big enough to cut in half to experiment, thanks.

IVERYAN Yeah not something you wanna tackle in the summer without a cooler to hang them in.
We’ll likely have some that need butchered next summer so I’m very curious about your process. After your butcher quartered them, did they store them until you were ready or did you get cool or frozen quarters back?
Ridley Acres The pork was fresh. We were in a rushed situation. The butcher was short on time & I had to work around his schedule. I had to run to his shop with every meat lug I had. He brought the hogs out of the cooler, threw them on a table & quartered them while i stuffed the pieces in my lugs. It wasn’t an ideal situation, but we didn’t have a choice. There is a back story to this, but too long to explain here.

HerbcoFood nice I keep thinking of trying it in the fridge but get nervous around day 3 to 4 and cook it up. (Man I really want a curing chamber) Maybe I’ll try it with a single steak rather than a roast like I have done previously.

Surg - I’ve had really good luck dry aging in the fridge using Umai bags. They don’t work very well with one steak though as you would not be left with much after aging. I usually go ~30 days but sometimes patience runs out. Longest I’ve gone is 40 days.

@bmartin1000 thanks. I’ve looked at those before but haven’t know anyone that has tried them. Thanks for the rec.
