GROCERY HAUL // meat costs THIS MUCH?!

[@Kathleensailorgirl]

God Bless all your amazing family 🙏🙏🙏💕💕

[@Suebearish]

You did a good job buying healthy but more convenient things to prepare

[@brendagervais5566]

Thank you for sharing your grocery hauls. Agree meat has gotten so pricey but then just about everything is anymore.

[@cathydecarles7084]

Julie and Jason I just all your wonderful videos and the love you all share is amazing and the love with your beautiful family

[@jasonandjulie]

Thanks Cathy!

[@InHimAlone]

Yep, prices have been crazy, especially on meat! My husband had to get a second job to keep up with all the rising prices. I hope you have a fun and productive time with the Schriebers!

[@NOVAFrugalFamily]

We only buy chicken and ground beef now. I only get it when it on sale for $1.99 and I stock the freezer. I make the meal plan based on what we have on hand and then just buy the things on sale in the coming month. I think that it is getting harder and harder every month with prices of everything going up quickly. I am always trying to stretch the meat with different things like having homemade pizza and enchiladas with rice inside with the meat. So hard without an oven and feeding 22 people.

[@jasonandjulie]

That is a wise way to buy/use meat!

[@jgutscher3339]

Thanks for sharing. Your well-house pantry looks similar to ours. Because our house didn't have a pantry we built one in our garage. Even a small space can make a big difference in storage when you use shelving like that. The puppies are adorable. I'm sure you'll all have a great time with your company.

[@jdxx59]

Wow I am so impressed!

[@jessebeattie7504]

You are amazing Julie! All the best on the renos looking forward to seeing the progress. Shalom Grace

Really enjoyed the haul!! 💜💜 thanks for sharing. Hope you have an awesome day!!😁

I just bought a pack of Patties at costco for the first time this year as well and yikes!!! So thankful for the meat we get off our land!

[@pamtodd2389]

You can cook "baked potato's" in the IP Cream cheese by the yogurt and cottage cheese -Costco. Could have been been in the cold room with the milk and eggs. I want a puppy too !

[@desireediaz5331]

Great haul Julie! You’re well prepared and organized. I love that you buy so many healthy food products.❤️❤️❤️

[@AliciasKitchen7]

💙💙 what a huge haul.i couldn't even imagine cooking for 22 people everyday 😅 sometimes it feels overwhelming just preparing food for 7

[@jasonandjulie]

When they leave my own 11 feels easy LOL

[@litacaldwell816]

My Costco here in central Indiana is also out of frozen broccoli and corn. Prices are ridiculous for sure. Also out of half and half.

[@sarahlashbrook6991]

I started making our yogurt in the crock pot a little while ago - super easy and much cheaper for us. One breakfast that I love is making oatmeal and adding a scoop of vanilla yogurt on top, and then maybe adding some fruit or raisins. So yummy!

[@jasonandjulie]

I love making yogurt in my instant pot 😁 Never mixed it with oatmeal though! Fun idea

[@TheWhimsicalFamilyHomestead]

Yes meat prices especially at Costco I've noticed is pricy. I started shopping meats at local grocery stores, and GFS because they have clearence section. We're making it by shopping sales. I've gotten lucky and my freezer is full again. Even got two turkeys, 2 small hams as well for Thanksgiving dinner and Christmas dinner to We love the Himalayan Kirkland kettle chips!

[@conniebailey3671]

Hello Lovely Family😊

[@cheriland7461]

I think you're going to need more food. Not counting meals for "drop in helpers and friends " you have 924 meals to cook for hungry hard working and playing people. I pray you get your oven fixed soon so you can supplement with some homemade breads. You rock! God bless you.

[@jasonandjulie]

We will see how it goes! Hopefully this plus what I already had on hand will make it through. I’ll keep you all posted!

[@joycecook8876]

Great job Julie. I will be lifting you all up in my prayers for these busy days ahead.

[@bettymadden3615]

I have been getting the chicken thighs at Sam’s for .99 a pound and ground beef when it goes on sale. I had a huge amount of stuff in my freezer but when that’s gone I’m not sure what we will do. I hope I can find sales is the bottom line.

[@crissy9792]

On a massive catch up here after finding your channel. Great family, very hard working even the little ones help. Loving the animals. Could you possibly show a video (you may have done already and I’ve not got to it yet) or link it for me I would love to try my hand at sour dough bread and any other uses for it. Looking forward to the rest of my catch up from the U.K. x

[@jasonandjulie]

I haven’t done a video just on sourdough. Although I have had great success with the sandwich bread recipe from the “venison for dinner” website, and all of the recipes from the Little Spoon Farm site

[@TRuth.T]

Thanks, for sharing. What a haul! What was the total for the shopping trip? How do you keep pests out of your food storage room?

[@jasonandjulie]

Mouse traps and sticky bug traps! If I’m going to keep something longer than a couple weeks I make sure it’s sealed up well. 🙂

[@belindaroberts3090]

Grocery prices are insane, especially meats, taters, eggs, & fresh fruit.

[@tammysarrazin7078]

first thing i go to is the meat clearance bin before looking at the dead price its scary for sure hugsssss

[@louisetringham5830]

Raw oats plain yogurt and strawberry jam mix together and eat awesome

[@raisingcubs7915]

I’ve been shopping several stores and prices are more affordable that way because shopping all at one store just doesn’t work anymore because prices have been ridiculous

[@jasonandjulie]

It makes it so challenging!

[@cherylgarrett4455]

I noted you're paying much higher prices than we are in the South. I pay $1.79-$2 per pound for a whole pork loin. Pork shoulder is less, but I like the leanness of the loin. Can make carnitas, chops, and roasts from the loin. Also make lean ground pork to add to ground beef for meatloaf or meatballs. Eggs are wild in cost. I like organic free range. It is the closest I can get to home raised eggs since I live in the city. They are over $5 a dozen. Milk is extremely expensive here.

[@pollypickarxsasmrrelaxings7459]

Is the family of 11 unable or unwilling to help provide food for themselves during their stay? I guess I’m wondering if the 11 people are all kids or adults? I think if it includes adults, expecting someone to provide 3 meals a day for their family of 11 is absolutely absurd. I’d have to decline if someone requested to stay at my home with their family of 11 when I already have a family of 11 to feed! This blows my mind 😮I would go broke feeding that many people with these insane prices lately. But you’re very generous for doing that! How many rooms are in your tiny home?

[@jasonandjulie]

They were very willing to provide food. But they came all the way out here and missed two weeks of work in order to help us for no charge. So we felt it was appropriate to feed them as a thank you!

[@tammysarrazin7078]

im so lucky my friend has bee's and i buy from here nothing but honey not pasteurized amazing flavour.. ...... i love costco mayo its the best hugsss

Those blueberries are good to eat with oatmeal You can have a make your own sandwich bar set up each day with bread, lettuce, condiments, meat, cheese, PB & J etc fruit, chips all set up

[@jasonandjulie]

Yes that’s a good plan. Then they can just make their own 👏🏻

[@elizabethmaycroft1736]

Yes, meat prices are ridiculous. Unfortunately for us, we dont have the $$$$ to buy half a cow because those prices are about the same as store prices.

[@angelaforcier378]

We always buy from a local farmer 1/4 beef at a time , way cheaper than buying it at the store and better quality

[@Letihall]

building a good relationship with your local farmers does help. I go around to my locals and buy other stuff as well like peaches and apples to can. I built a good rapport with one and he was able to get me a great deal from his friend for a whole beef for $3.60 per lb total. I went in with my sister for that and a whole hog she got from her friend for $1.50 per lb total. I got beef and pork for a year and half for less than $1900.

[@minnamae25]

A meal we eat that is super delicious and not that much to make is taco soup. I make it in my crockpot all the time. I'm so glad we don't have to buy store bought. We just had a pig butchered. Of course hanging weight went up because of feed costs, but the kid we buy it from always gives us a decent discount because we buy a whole pig from him every year. The butcher prices went up but it wasn't as much as we thought it would. Really hoping to get our own steer and pigs this early Spring to raise ourselves now that we have the land to do it on. Insane what it costs to feed family or the help. That's how we always gave back when people would come help us...we fed them good too. What, don't y'all have any apple trees where you live that grows good apples? We have them everywhere here. We picked apples last week and made our own applesauce. Canned 53 jars of applesauce. Yum yum.

[@jasonandjulie]

I’ve been looking around for good apple picking farms. The closest one I knew of is an hour away and charged $1.99 a pound for their cheapest apples plus a picking fee per person

[@minnamae25]

@@jasonandjulie we just stop along the dirt roads we live on and pick apples from it. Our wild apples here in northern PA are absolutely delicious.

[@christinem9935]

Meat prices are definitely higher but I try to by what's on sale and stock up ahead in my deep freezer. Pork butt goes on sale for 99 cents/lb here every now and then so I buy one when that happens. $40 for the one you got, ouch! It looks like it might be a better cut of meat than what I get though. We used to buy more organic/better quality food but we had a huge income change last year and there's just no way we could keep buying like that. If we ever get more income coming in, I would like to go back to that.

In addition to inflated meat prices, Europeans are now paying 8 times more than the US for energy thanks to the current Russian senior politician’s mindset. Not so easy over here as well. I keep you in my thoughts, all of you. And cross my fingers for a smooth ’bedroom raising‘ 🙋‍♀️

[@jasonandjulie]

[@karbear26]

I’m glad you have meat from your animals in your freezer! Yes meat is really expensive right now! We’ve just been using less of it in our meals! We also went to the store later in the evening and got some meat that was on sale because it was going to expire the next day and put that in the freezer! I hope you have a wonderful visit with your friends and they get lots of work done!!

[@jasonandjulie]

Freezing sale meat is a great idea!

[@nikkiblackwell9553]

great shopping haul, but why do you have the meat on top of all the veggies, eggs, and yogurt. maybe not such a good idea

[@thesmiths629]

Your meat prices are way higher than my local Heb in Texas. I thought $18.99 for 5lbs of ground beef (80/20) was ridiculous. A year ago that was 7.99 I can still find cheap chicken breast (boneless and skinless) for under $3 a pound and it's only up to 4%retained fluids. But my grocery budget has been busted. I quit eating fruit a few months back. And replaced it with a magnesium supplement 😉 I quit snacks, and only cook two meals a day. I buy foods based on calories per cost. So meat and potatoes, and rice and beans are still our main meals.
