Good price and is choice! Normally a couple times a year they drop it down to $1.99 lb. I load up big time then. I still have one left in the freezer from last year. Even bought a couple and ground up into burger meat. Hard to beat for that price!

Nope, $5.99 lb. in SE Virginia. Enjoy.

Just curious about your grinding process. When you grind a packer for burgers do you grind the entire packer? Do you trim off any fat? Do you remove any silver skin beforehand?

My local Kroger had a couple packers at $1.99 a pound a couple weeks ago, and I snapped up the only two they had. Haven't seen them since :(

I remember some people saying $1.99 but have never seen that here or maybe a store only thing. Didn't really believe that different cuts could taste better but do now and totally plan on grinding some for burgers too.

Hey Riverside. I grind up the whole packer. When I did it was a bit of a learning curve since it was my first time but I have done it a couple more times since. I trim some of the super hard fat off of there mainly the deckle and of course the silverskin and then just grind the rest. Makes damn good burgers. I preferred it to chuck but that's just me. Wife prefers leaner meat.

But thanks for the heads up!

Not so John, our Fry's is related to Kroger. I was in the Fry's on Val Vista today and they had brisket for $2.99lb. They also had some gorgeous pork ribs that tomorrow go for 99¢lb if you have their clip and save online things. I do and am going back tomorrow for the ribs, too good to pass up. Sam's has prime brisket for $3.68lb, choice for $3.06, if I wanted a brisket I'd go to Sam's and cop the prime unless I was going to use it to make my hipshot burgers. Fry's sells all kinds of stuff under the Kroger brand, I was liking the look of their mustard/deviled egg tater salad. RAY

Ray, I know Krogers bought Fry's many years ago and some specials do translate but, looked at the Fry's near me and they were not showing any sale on brisket in their online deals for my closest store, remember we are both technically in the SE Valley but quite a distance from each other, so it is possible that I am outside of the metro Phoenix area a bit as I am very far south and east of you.

Wasn't in my ad for central Arkansas. Actually was in there today looking for something else and checked the price, still 5.99. Sams club was 3.60ish for prime and 3.40ish for choice I think. That's pretty normal for here.

Yeah John, I see on the map Chandler goes from right next to Gilbert all the way to Queens Creek, that's some distance. Today begins a 4-day sale at Fry's, if you click on the special in their website coupons, really nice pork ribs are 99¢ lb. I'm going back this morning after we drop Bob off at the vets to score as many as I can. RAY

Our local grocer had packers for sale last week for the nominal price of 9.00/lb. Needless to say I walked right on by.
