When my neighbor found out I'm carnivore she exclaimed, "How can you afford all that meat?" I said, "Well, I'm not spending $4 on potato chips!" She asked where I was finding $4 chips that they're $6 now. See, that's how I afford meat, I'm spending $0 on junk food! Great video!

My mother used to cook beef liver until it was as tough as a shoe sole. It took 20 years to overcome that HATRED of yucky beef liver. One evening, a friend ordered "liver and onions" in a gravy sauce and offered me some, which I obviously declined but he insisted. Lo and behold it went from NEVER AGAIN to at least once every few weeks or, whenever we'd hit that restaurant after a run. Damn, never saw that one coming!! PS: Chicken livers are good too!

[@williamdonahue6617]

When I was a kid, my mother was diagnosed with anemia and what was then called "Iron-poor blood." She cooked liver and onions three mornings a week. It was sold in plastic tubs at $.15 to $.39 a pound. The smell was so hideous that I hid in my room with bath towels crammed under the door until it was time to go to school. (On the other hand, I've always loved liverwurst. Go figure.)

[@jax9349]

This is my favourite ritual. I buy a bunch of marrow bones and roast them for an hour. Then I put them in the pressure cooker covered in water and some salt for 3 hours. I reduce the stock to about a third. Then I brown some ox cheeks and put them in the slow cooker with the beef stock for 6 hours until meltingly tender. I eat an ox cheek with a cup of bone broth on the side. It takes all day but I usually get six portions out of it. It's so delicious, I'm totally addicted.

In New Zealand we have a lot of butchers, and you can get fresher ground beef in the mornings, after they process the other cuts. Funnily I find the cheap ground beef is a litle leaner on Mondays ... I think they put in some of the unsold cuts from the weekend. The supermarkets are pot luck ... they are often cheaper but you find they pump in CO2s to stop old meat from going brown (and only spot it in the inside)

Beef ribs in crockpot/Instant pot and then finished off on grill or oven broiler. My go to for Chuck roast is to pop in freezer just shy of an hour and then slice steaks for the grill. Chuck is great grilled steak if grilled medium rare or rarer. Fatty cut I buy that is very inexpensive imo (@Sam's) is the beef cheeks. There is a LOT of fat in them so, I trim it out and bake the fat with salt and make beef crackling. Incredible with eggs imo.

I eat a lot of ground beef, but I am definitely relaxed carnivore and use different seasoning blends to flavor them. Thanks for the emphasis on low & slow cooking of the tougher cuts. I'm still working on this for myself. I had only gone down to 300° though. I'll try 225° to see if that improves things. I like using a dutch oven over a crock pot Lodge has a nice one with a self basting lid.

[@zakiyahamahad7404]

My fave cuts of beef are ribeye, sirloin, short rib and rump. I am also very fond of the heart and eat it regularly - I fry it diced til the fat goes crispy and then mix in some seasoning and a little water, then once that's heated through I stir in soft goat's cheese to make a sort of stroganoff. It's delicious! I also love lamb ribs and sliced lamb hearts done in the airfryer - I never get tired of those!

[@redstarbetty7997]

I also like ground beef in the form of home-made burgers. I'll also use it as a sort of rice substitute and season it like a pilaff. I can't do the highest fat % one though as I find that much rendered out fat can cause gut issues for me, so I get the medium fat one.

I've been trying to look for a ranking of the fattiest cuts of beef regardless of price or value (mainly for special occasions or just to try out because ribeyes are just so common) but this was really helpful even if my understanding is that this is more with price or value factored in. Thanks.

Just came across your channel bro. How long have you been carnivore? I’ll grab the seven bone steak which I believe is pretty much a large section of chuck when it goes on sale at Market Basket (a grocery store in New England area) often for 2.99/lb. But there’s a meat market in the city where I live that goes through a lot of volume of beef and at times they become overstocked. I can get ribeye sometimes as cheap as 5.99 a pound for a whole ribeye. I just bought some this weekend for 6.99 a pound. I bought five whole ribeyes for a total of 100 pounds for $700. I always stock up when they go on sale and often it lasts me until their next sale. Stocking up during a sale is definitely my favorite way to save money on carnivore

Good suggestions. I don't eat a carnivore diet but I do eat a low carb diet(around 12 carbs per day) so the bulk of my meals is meat or seafood three times a day. Year 30 now. You mentioned salt and if you're not aware when eating a low carb or zero carb diet you need to increase your salt intake. I've had to limit water intake along with increased salt to maintain healthy sodium levels. I would not be worried about adding salt to a zero carb diet. Now one thing you didn't mention. My wife and I are in our 70's and even some more expensive cuts of meat can be very cheap depending on the amount you fix. I normally cook meats or seafoods figuring on 4 to 6 ozs. each portion. Today I bought two t-bone steaks(you'd like, nice fat) for $12. One steak will provide dinner for both my wife and I so that's $6 for a t-bone. Boneless chicken breasts around $2 for two servings for us. I figure normally that meats cost us between 2 and $6 per meal for the both of us. If you don't like hamburger it's likely because you're cooking all the fat out of it to get it done. Try making hamburger steaks by frying slightly and then simmering in beef broth until done(I add mushrooms and onions, lots of worch. sauce, salt and pepper). I normally eat eggs and pork for my breakfast so that supplies much of my needed fat intake. The rest I get throughout the day.

I need extra salt due to my workout routine. I feel pretty awful when I let my salt intake slide

Great recommendations, I would add for those tougher cuts of meats to look into sous vid, it takes more planning as typically a 18-24 hour cooking window is needed for tougher meats, along with a "finishing" stage where one caramelizes the meat on a grill, cast iron skillet, or with a torch, but its well worth it and once you got the method down, becomes pretty easy. Its my go-to for london broils that turn out tender and to a perfect degree of rareness. I've even made chuck roast 'steaks', finished on a grill that have never failed to amaze.

My favorite low cost meat is 4lbs of salted chuck roast tightly wrapped in tin foil and baked for 4 hours at 280 degrees. It's pure butter.

Gonna try that! thx😉

I use beef ribs a lot. Cook in the pressure cooker then a quick grill afterwards tun out super soft great cheap meat.

I have a Tyramine allergy (migraines) and I buy frozen 100% beef 1/4 lb burger patties (80/20) and eat 4 for lunch (pan fried) 5-6 days a week.

[@craigluhr7243]

I predominantly buy whole beef shoulder (chuck) and grind myself or smoke it. It makes great pot roast and chili. Also. beef shank and beef tounge are great. Beef short ribs are getting high priced as is brisket. Pichana cooked over open fire is amazing. This is Brazilian style.

This is the first time I've heard of a pellet grill. Will look into it. I've got boring old propane and propane accessories, and the indoor oven or air fryer.

Some of my early videos showed my grill. I need a better mobile filming set up before I can make more of those videos

Beef Shank is my favorite cut of beef.. even over Rib-eye! Low and slow with onion, salt, garlic, and pepper. Lots of fat and collagen! Not to mention bone marrow and bone you can save for beef broth. :)

[@texashunter664]

We cook the shanks from the deer we shoot. really good braised and slow cooked.

Walmart skirt steak bulk pack usually next to the whole brisket.

Picanha is a Brazilian favorite. Super expensive. As a Brazilian living in Canada and doing carnivore, I love that I can get it cheap. Around cad$ 14/Kg

The first meat in your list of 5, beef back ribs, are the second choice behind filet mignon for Korean bulgogi as well as being most excellent sauteed slowly in chicken broth and garlic. Thanks for the suggestions! Or, there's always Walmart's own Great Value Spam for $2.28 a can!! I'm wondering about air fryer (crispy??!!) generic spam?? Thank you again!

[@practicalcarnivore6093]

Cut into smallish cubes and cook on high heat. Check out air fryer pork belly burnt ends videos for inspiration.

[@mkshffr4936]

Right now I am in a situation where carnivore of any type is cost prohibitive. Even ground beef is a luxury right now. I do the best I can with pork and chicken so when the store has pork roasts for under $2/lb I grab some. When they have it I treat myself to some smoked pork jowl (half the cost of bacon). I would love to get some beef heart but that seems like I would need to find an actual butcher shop as I don't see it in the stores at all.

[@mvers6671]

I am in the Netherlands and here it is a serious search for fatty cuts of beef besides ribeye... Pican is sold for ribeye-price over here, beef ribs are hard to find. So I eat ground beef and flat iron steaks with added butter mainly, ribeye on the weekend ;)

[@RoyatAvalonFarms]

Good list. I agree with it. However, I'd say that whatever, Korean ribs thing was, is virtually unavailable at any grocer I've ever been to even in other parts of the country. I'd only find that if I went to a slaughter house and ordered it specifically. And then it would be very pricey since they usually cut that meat cap off for other cuts and would want to charge for keeping that layer. Thanks for the work you're doing here.

The problem I had with Keto was snacks. And then I found pork rinds!

[@gkseeton]

When we crock pot a roast, the meat is shredded, seasoned, and I take mine then add the stuff family wants and this creates a thick stew.

[@byronhixson6860]

Once in a while I can find top sirloin roasts for $3.99 per lb. I temp them and braise them, then put them in my convection on 350° for about a half hour or so. Very yummy! Kinda rare, but that's how I like my beef. I love rib steaks but only but when in sale, $7.99 lb. No way I would pay more, unless of course it were tenderloin, my favorite!

[@juan501]

The biggest problem with ground beef is finding packages that are fresh and it's worse since COVID.

[@texashunter664]

Tri Tip is another reasonable priced cut of meat. It has a fat cap. We sous vide cook ours and finish on a hot grill.

[@christinaperez254]

Ground beef every day, from our own cows. Eggs from our own chicken. Raw HWC. Grassfed butter (my most expensive but most critical food). Ends and bits bacon value packs. Some roasts. Some new york steaks, sirloins, ect....but only a few a week.

[@klmccune]

Cook back ribs on low in the crock pot for 6-7hrs and then finish them on the grill.

[@scottv1977]

I just started grilling skirt steak and it is delicious.

[@joannthornton8499]

For inexpensive meat ground beef is my go to. I love it and it is easy to cook. I dislike ribs Bigger cuts like brisket are impractical for cooking on spur of the moment and take a great deal of planning compaired to steaks. If I could afford it I would get prime rib roast every week, oh well. Only problem is it is often difficult to find decent ground beef that is not extra lean 90/10 or 85/15.
