I got a terrific roast at my ShopRite last night. It was $7.99 and I
got a large one, but cut off a couple of chunks to vac-pac to later
grilling or cast iron pan start/oven finish.

You know me...I get most of my meats at Costco, but the last couple of
prime ribs (they are choice, not graded prime) have been very nice,
but not ohmigawd wonderful. They make good roasts, good steaks.

Last night's from the market was better than we have been getting at
Costco lately. Coincidence perhaps, or maybe we were just really
hungry. There was a larger fat cap (and at those prices), and although
I trimmed some, I was wondering if that made a diff, too.

Anyway, we had perfect med rare slabs o' beef with potato-onion
pierogies and creamed spinach.
