Oooo, we live near a Wegmans.....

I’ve got to check this out, for special occasions, that is.

I don’t doubt this is normally way beyond what the mm budget allows for meat.

Wegman’s prime filet is $36/lb. The precut filets are usually 8oz and they will cut them to order if you ask. I like 12oz.

A couple of years ago at Christmas I managed to pick up some 14 day matured leg of lamb. As it was Christmas Eve it had been reduced from about 45 dollars to about 30 dollars.

Boy was it great, tender and full flavour, there is nothing like naturally matured or hung meat.

It seems nowadays it only just finished squarking or mooing or bahbahing and it is on your plate.

Long gone are days when local butchers used to hung the meat in view of their customers.

Yes heath and safety maybe did need to be tightened worldwide but we have gone crazy to the point meat does not taste like meat anymore.
