BTW, if there's an RD near you, get a free membership and save money.

http://www.restaurantdepot.com/

I get Choice grade brisket, often certified angus beef, for under $4/lb all day everyday. Under $3.50 if it's on sale. Bone in pork butt was on sale for $1.24/lb last time I was there and $1.12/lb if you buy a case (6 twin packs). Chicken leg quarters are usually under $0.60/lb too. Bacon I get 15 lbs for $24.
Sadly,
