Well... I guess you know how to beat your meat? [Reply]

May Aldi rule forever, wisely spent $113 three weeks ago and still have plenty left where that came from... was barely able to carry it all out

I am thinking you had something definitely better than me! :-)
If I eat steak, I need a ribeye or a porterhouse.
But (to paraphrase Samuel L Jackson in Pulp Fiction), my girlfriend is a vegetarian, which pretty much makes me a vegetarian...but I do like a good steak, though I have them rarely...and rare. [Reply]

Hey, starting to see a lot of organic food at ALDI's; their fair trade coffee is fantastic (donut shop or medium roast) and I really dig the mac and cheese. [Reply]

Sunfresh or Festival has near me. Sometimes its called patio steak it looks similar. I think its from the same cut as flat iron steak but could be wrong on this. [Reply]

It's just such a lousy piece of meat that I'm gonna use every hour I can to slowly thunk it into submission.
I read an article where ATK or ChefSteps did 24, 48, and 72 hr. The 72 had no appreciable improvement over 48. 24 is more like ribeye, 48 more like prime rib. [Reply]

Their business model WORKS
Our Aldi's has a $10 off $40 coupon in the mail earlier this week. That's three meals right there. [Reply]
