A 2.5 pound beef rump roast, with a thin (trimmed) rind of fat, and
little flecks of fat in the muscle. I didn't think rump roast was ever
marbled like that. It's too nice (and too small) to roast; I'm going to
slice it 1/8" thick and use it for stirfrys, steak sandwiches, etc.
Wife and DD will be out of town this weekend. I'll be eating good.

Sounds luscious. I have been avoiding red meat because my husband has been
told to avoid it. Might be time for me to blow it all out and score a
sirloin tip, still my favorite cut.

DD is home from college for the summer. She's doing that vegetarian
thing, so I haven't had much beef or pork for a while. I'm going to
enjoy this -- and enjoy it all the more because it was on sale for less
than $2.

Cheap*******ly,

Interesting coincidence. I also picked up one of those at Cub Foods
(Nakoosa trail) last weekend, and tossed it in the freezer. I was
just googling "beef roast" in the group for ideas on what to do with
it. I wish I had room for a couple more (Though I saw one guy pick up
about 16 of them). Did you happen to notice when the sale expires? I
won't be able to get back to the store until Friday.

I was thinking bbq beef sammiches or something, but for some reason it
just doesn't excite me. Might do the whole onions/carrots/potatoes/
french onion soup in the crockpot thing.

Btw, today Cub has $1.69/lb pork sirloin roasts, in ~2.5lb and ~5lb
sizes.
