“Costs time, saves money”. I teach culinary classes and I constantly preach this. You’re trading time for money when you cook for yourself. You control everything from ingredients to seasoning. You can also pay yourself on the back at the end of the month when you have a little extra cash to go around. You have earned my subscription good sir!

If you don't have a vacuum sealer you can wrap them in saran wrap before you put them in a zip lock bag. This will protect them from freezer burn.

I like that you get so many consistent steaks this way. I think this makes it easier (for beginners like me) to cook them to the desired temperature consistently each time instead of just buying "random" steaks one at a time.

Picked up a whole choice NY Strip loin this week. $8.99/lb. They were selling packaged NY Strips for $9.99/lb. Not much savings this week. The reason I decided to do this is because of the beautiful fat cap I found on one whole loin. I will be cutting steaks and leaving the fat as fat is where it's at for Carnivores! Great video for cutting skills!

Excellent video. I've been doing this for years, and yes you do save a ton of money. The factors that make this so attractive is that you can control how thick you want your steaks and you can also trim to your preferences. I usually set aside two (one for me and one for my wife) 1 and 3/4 inch steaks for that special occasion and cut the rest at 1 and 1/4 inches. As far as the end cut where the sirloin starts to show up, I do several things. 1) I freeze it and then shave it into meat for cheese steaks that I make on my Blackstone griddle. 2) Make it into a great pot roast or roast it in the oven cooked to medium and then thinly sliced for roast beef sandwiches on onion rolls. 3) This meat is also fantastic for stir fry beef, very high end stir fry I should say. And then sometimes I grind it and mix with ground brisket trimmings for fantastic hamburger patties.

Great video. I just picked a 15lb strip loin on sale for $6.99/lb.

Great video thank you - small extra tip for those not able to buy in bulk - At the end of the day - right before the butcher hours end at your grocery and or very early in the morning right when butcher section opens, many meat areas have a discount section where you can find deep price cut regularly- you can also ask the butcher if they “could help you out” and mark down an item for whatever reason- many times they can and or will reduce the price

Got a sub from me. I like very much the fact that you have no music while you are speaking. Music playing while the host is talking gets in the way. Another way to save some money is do what a friend mine in South Dakota did. His neighbor is a cattle rancher. My friend bought a quarter of a cow. He says he got 245 pounds of beef; and yes, he was able to select the cuts and the sizes. The total cost between the rancher's cost and the butcher's cost was $4.05 per pound. He sent me a photo of the first t-bone he cooked and it had me licking my phone (well, not really, but the steak looked great). He got a stand-up freezer and that's pretty much all that is in it right now.

Just found your channel for the first time today, and after watching 4 videos I am definitely a subscriber now. Looking forward to watching many more vids on your channel. I've just gotten back into BBQ after about a 5 year break from it, and I have been buying meat like crazy the last couple of months. Going to start buying in bulk for sure.

Glad you're telling people this, when I was a student I actually bought a good knife as an investment to do this when I saw how much cheaper it was to buy full ribeyes, sirloins etc from the butcher or costco vs the cut steaks. Unbelieveable how little time it takes to cut it into steaks and chuck them in the freezer. Great tip.

Thank you so much for this. NY is $14.99 a pound where I am at and we are not having sales very often on meat lately. I watched your video and picked up 2 slabs and ended up with $427 worth of NY for $208! They had Tritip slabs as well, but they looked intemidatying. Need to check your channel to see if you have a video for those as well! Thanks again!

Following the holiday season, I would buy whole turkeys at a discounted price. I would thaw it out and break it down into many cuts for braising, stir-fry, and the like. The bonus was when I'd save all of the skin, carcass, bones, neck, giblets, season, and roast them, Then into the stockpot they went with aromatics like celery, carrots, garlic, and onions. Slow simmer overnight, then strained and picked the meat from the bones for casseroles or salad. Then I chilled the stock so I could pick off the congealed fat. The resulting stock then went into my pressure canner for homemade bone stock. Why did I do all of this work? Well, first of all, I had a large family, but I also enjoyed a sense of accomplishment.

This is great. My late husband used to buy whole beef tenderloin and pork tenderloin and do his own cutting. He loved to grill, every week-end was a feast...i need to learn this...thanks.

Saved me so much money and made me a better cook! Thank you!

Thanks for the tip of the top sirloin frequently sold as new york strip here in Arizona on the value packs they put 2 strips vs 2 top sirloin steaks now make sense. Thanks again!

I've been doing this for a long time, but very glad I found your channel. I've gone to a carnivore diet to lose weight (I've lost 135 pounds in one year) and this is the only way to afford to eat the way I do. And besides, having control of the thickness and being able to control fat content when I grind hamburger has been wonderful. Your video on the Chuck Roll was an eye opener, and now I buy those as well.

I have learned so much today that I’m going to reward myself with the Tumblr knife sharpener. Plus, I’ve subscribed. Thank you.

After saving money on buying large pieces of beef, but couple that with a vacuum sealer and the you can safely freeze your cuts for at least 1 year!! Tilia vacuum sealers are awesome! I have 2, one new and one old. The old one still works but I just wanted a new one. The old one is about 24 years old!

I still have quite a bit of beef that I bought at a pretty decent discount from a vendor in my freezer (cost about $250). But once it's gone, I'm DEFINITELY going to start doing this! Love the channel, my dude.
