And try it before you question it. Yes, it's more spendy, but it's friggin awesome! Do a flank steak and a round steak at the same time, then tell me if you don't taste the difference.
I would never use any 'steak' for jerky. Round steak is just a pre-sliced rump or round roast. You're paying extra for the same thing as buying it as a roast and slicing it yourself. Flank steak is a whole different part of the cow, it comes from the abdomen. I'm sure it's just as tasty made into jerky but a waste of expensive meat to me. [Reply]

You could go in and get a cart full of fruits and veggies for like $25. Same shit at Hy-Vee would easily be double, you just have to use the stuff from Sprouts quicker.
They regularly have great deals on their meats. Boneless, skinless chicken thighs for sometimes 1.28/lb, steaks and shrimp are often ridiculously priced.
It really is great. I think their produce is the best quality for the price and their meat is solid.
I really like their coffee too. [Reply]
Bought a 7lb Chuck Eye roast (2.77lb) to smoke (like a brisket) and will take pics of it. I am doing a smoker, crock pot, shred, and return to the smoker method. [Reply]
