What is that a 50 dollar chunk of meat, 100 even?
What is the cut, and price per pound?
This is bolar blade, which is a pretty economical cut of beef. I paid about $18 for this 1.1kg, so it was $17/kg or something.
Man it is getting expensive, I haven't bought beef in like a year. I buy cuts around up to 6/pound, just like roasts and those other cheaper cuts, at aldi or otherwise on sale at the regular grocers. 9/pound is just too much, especially as I eat so much.
I know. I have embraced my love for legumes so I've been eating more vegetarian nowadays. If you have an instant pot, cooking up legumes from dry is excellent on the wallet. My partner is more of a meat eater, so I will make some meaty things every week to keep him happy. I do make an exception for chicken, though.
Shopping around has been a habit since I was young, and I don't like to buy from the big grocery chains (especially: Coles, Woolworths, Galen Weston, Walmart. π) unless I have to... Like if Aldi (best of what's around me) doesn't have what I need.
I'm sad couponing isn't a thing in Australia, or I'd be all over it.
Giant bag of rice is another great way to stretch the meal dollars and works great with an instant pot too!
