To be honest steak/beef products are well cheap. You can get a big bag of mince for next to nothing and make some chilli or bolognese, well good. It's chicken breasts that are the biggest rip-off.
how are chicken breasts the biggest rip off? At the grocery store closest to me, chicken breasts are usually 1.49 a lb, and steaks, top round or not, are no where near that cheap. I live in the middle of freaking nowhere too, nearest grocery store is 10 mins away, nearest sams is an hour and 15 mins away, nearest walmart is 35 mins away.
