[QUOTE="Running Arrow Bill, post: 711280, member: 9"] Beef in supermarkets is priced on a scale from 1 to 10...lol. Locally, we have little grocery store that changed ownership last year. After they did, they started putting probably 80% of their non perishable items in "store brand" (we have a significant low income population here along with some high rollers). As such, they raised their prices significantly on the "best" brands and stuff. That aside... They're selling 70 to 80% ground beef as low as $1.49 a lb. Also, some steak cuts in the $2.49 to $5.99 a pound...probably the low end meat, whatever that grade is. A larger supermarket in next larger town is selling better stuff along with some "grass fed" beef in the higher prices. "Our" USDA inspected meat we're selling (natural grass fed, no hormones, etc.) is selling for $5.00 a pound for 98% ground, stew meat, chili meat. Sirloin steaks @ $9.50 lb., Boneless ribeye @ $15.00 lb., and Tenderloin for $24.99 lb. We're doing good beginning business with customers in neighboring towns as well as in Western Okla. There ARE customers out there that want "nitch" beef. Just matter of advertising and finding them. We've also recently sold 2 orders and shipped them to customers out of the area. This type of market is SLOW to develop, but has potential. We're keeping our fingers crossed! [/QUOTE]
