In his video the whole chickens sold for $1.49/lb. They also have Foster Farms legs and thighs at close to the same price however, the rotisserie chicken is the best deal hands down because of the cooking method, so tender they are. We by two, cut them up and wrap them then use the carcass for soup broth. There are all kinds of recipes for chicken, amazing cold sandwiches they make too.

[@subwaytheo]

In Canada, we have Costco Commercial locations that are restaurant supply but anyone with a membership can get in. I usually get cryovac sealed fresh meats and break them down myself. Much cheaper than even the Costco cut meats. It's nice to cut steaks to your own thickness instead of the pre-packaged stuff. You are right about the pork loins. I usually cut them thick and butterfly them. If you have a smoker, the pickled pea-meal covered loins turn out fantastic and turn a cheaper cut of meat into premium quality deli-style cold cuts.

[@henrimatisse7481]

He's right about the Sockeye salmon; a product I regularly buy. The "Atlantic" salmon is raised in densely packed shoreline pens in a chemical soup fed fish chow. The skin is pure collagen great for your skin and connective tissue. I used to throw it way after cooking, No more! I always buy a roasted chicken eventually making great stock from it. Another regular good buy is the ground meat

[@pakviroti3616]

The rotisserie chickens are absolutely a loss leader, so are most of the items up front at the food bar. Especially the hot dogs. Costco doesn't really lose money in the long run because they make it up in other areas. You can think of it as customer appreciation give back. That's why I have been a loyal customer since 1990.

[@ph1shstyx]

I go once a week and sometimes pick up just 2 chickens. Each chicken averages out to be about 2lbs of pure meat, and you get a carcass for making stock. I'd argue it's the best deal in the US for protein. Also, their egg prices are far superior to anywhere else.

[@pakviroti3616]

[@aceofdiamonds2002]

The rotisserie chickens are actually an attempt at loss reduction. What they're made from is those whole chickens that are about to expire so they cook them up in the store and then sale them to try and recover from the total loss of the whole chickens.

[@Nicklopez81]

@@aceofdiamonds2002 Lol. Thats not true at all. They come in separate from any other chicken product in the store, and have there own use by dates on the cases they come in. The truth is, most everything sold at Costco is sold close to cost, and some even at a loss, like the Rotisserie chickens and $1.50 hot dog and soda combos. Where costco makes most of its money is from its memberships. It is literally its main business model.

[@yambor44]

If you look at the labels, the rotisserie chicken is $1.66 a pound (so a 3 pound bird) and the uncooked is $1.49 a pound (over 5.6 pounds each). They get more per pound because they are cooking them. Comparatively, a 2 pack of rotisserie chickens at the same size and cost would be $18.69 or $9.35 per bird. Rotisserie nonetheless is a great deal.

I individually wrap my steaks, ground beef, chops, and meat from the rotisserie chickens and that way, I can grab however many servings I want from the bags in the freezer.

[@Garth2011]

Yes, but I have noticed in CA areas the size has been shrinking. In fact, some are smaller than Costco requires so they are priced LESS as a result. I guess they have a minimum weight standard for the $4.99 with no real focus maximum weight

take one of those pork loins, cut in 4 - put each in a ziplock with a good amount of rootbeer, zip it up and let if marinate overnight. in the fridge.. slow cook in crock pot somewhere around 7-8 hrs with the juices still there, and add some kind of bbq sauce... you'll have to fork shed it, it won't fall apart like a shoulder or butt would, but it'll be very lean. then sauce it up how people like it on buns with some cole slaw or the like as a dressing - makes a great lunch - might need to let the meat drain in a collander for a few minutes for the excess liquid to drain away and not stain shirts :)

[@ptrinch]

My only problem with pre-cut Costco beef is that it's always blade tenderized. Even the tenderloin cuts, which absolutely need no tenderizing. Blade tenderizing involves stabbing the meat with tiny blades that break up the connective tissues. As a result, surface bacteria is allowed to penetrate to the center of the cut, meaning that you now have to cook it to at least 145°F (which puts it in the medium to medium-well range). That's a non-starter for me, but if you like steak that way... have at it. Fortunately, the primal cuts are not tenderized and also save you some money. Just got to put in a bit of work.

[@vplan]

I was very surprised when I find out this. So now I just buy the entire slab and cut it at home myself.

the salmon recommended here is previously frozen. Freezing meat, thawing it, and freezing it again will diminish the quality of the meat.

Fish and chicken though you probably shouldnt freeze twice.

As a butcher, and avid home cook, I highly recommend not grinding the far right portion (our POV) of the pork loin. If you’re a fan of beef ribeye, you’re going to want to get some incredible chops out of that section. Think of the left side as the NY Strip portion, and the far right section as the ribeye. You’ll notice a difference once you start slicing into it. Besides, that pork loin is 1.99 per pound. But so is ground pork in stores off the shelf. But boneless rib end chops (the pork ribeyes) typically sell for 3.99 a pound. So more bang for your buck is you turn those into chops as well. So good!

Now if only Sockeye tasted more like Choo, or I could actually still get King Salmon where I am at. Excellent video as always, have you ever looked at the bulk meats at Smart and Final? I shop Cosco as well, but when making dogfood (which I make a lot) we are saving 60-70 percent depending on the cut of been and even more when its chicken.

[@evh3811]

Coho tastes like nothing at all

[@MangledRemainz]

I turn the pork loins into Canadian Bacon. Cut them into 3 equal parts and add the curing seasonings. Wrap for two weeks and then smoke until 140*F since after slicing (then vacuum sealing) we still pan sear before eating. Breakfast bagel sandwiches are amazing and putting on pizza is great as well. I usually smoke 30lbs at a time for personal use and giveaways.

Awesome video. You missed an opportunity to talk about maximizing the value in the $4.99 chicken. After you break it down, you can use the carcass for chicken stock. Great way to stretch an already ridiculous deal.

Pork loin is really expensive in Australia, I think it's cheap in the states because of bacon. We use the belly and the loin for bacon while you guys just use the belly so you have a massive surplus of loin

At this moment, it is crucial for individuals to prioritize investing in alternative streams of income that are not reliant on the government, particularly with the existing worldwide economic crisis.

It's junk food, buy organic and do the prep yourself, if you are health conscious. People do not realize that Costco sells to make a profit, your health is not an issue for them, on the contrary.

[@evilgtidriver]

The reason they’re called sirloin fillet is that it’s just a term used for boneless cut of meat. Any small chunk of boneless meat can be called a fillet. Like a fillet o fish at McDonald’s. What most people call fillet mignon is actually tenderloin. Just names restaurants use.

Regarding the wild Sockeye salmon, I cut filet in two pieces, put it in aluminum foil, douse some worchestershire sauce on it, sprinkle seasoned salt, curry, Italian seasoning on it, and a cube of butter, close the foil. Cook on preheated BBQ on high for 10 minutes with cover closed. Comes off the skin super easy with a plastic spatula and tastes wonderful!

[@chefmike9945]

It's important to mention that Costco mechanically tenderize their steaks. As you know, this is considered an inferior quality step, not done in quality establishments. Purchasing the bagged meats like the strip lion and the ribeye means you avoid this as you're cutting steaks yourself. You can verify by simply asking someone in the meat department if they mechanically tenderize.

[@AwaitingTheBlessedHope]

The label states “blade tenderized.” Wish they wouldn’t do that.

[@adorableadornments1101]

If a person has a meat slicer and a dehydrator, they can use the pork loin for meat chips. I freeze sections of the roast, then thaw slightly and slice thin, then salt it and put it in the dehydrator for about 6 hours. Carnivore chips. Yummy!

[@Lanthanaas]

In our area, Costco is one of the worst deals on meat, most of the time. We generally get the pork loins for $1.28-1.68/lbs. We usually get the large, unprocessed hunks of beef that we butcher at home for $3.20-6.80/lbs. Our area has Winco Foods, which has amazing deals constantly, and US Foods Chefs'store, where we get the unprocessed hunks of beef.

[@steveludwig4200]

Local Safeway store has CUSTOM CUT choice ribeyes on sale for $5.99/pound this week and CUSTON CUT T-Bones and Strip steaks $6.99 a pound at least once a month. Better tasting beef and much cheaper than CostCo.

Brisket, great price. We get a huge one and cut it up. There is only two of us so we shrink wrap and freeze. I braise the Jewish way, I grill Texas style in the summer and also use in soup. Look for the mark downs. We got some HUGE , extremely thick, boneless ribeye's for 9.00 per pound. Amazing. Their lamb is a great price. We get the boneless leg and cut into two pieces and freeze the loin chops two to a package. They are so thick, one chop a piece is great for both of us. Their pork chops are awesome.

I cut chops at the leaner end of the pork loin, roast from the center and use the darker part for stir fry. I usually get 2 pork loins and cut up then put in vacuum seal bags. It’s also great when the pork loin is on sale.

[@gregory3227]

The end of the pork loins you grind up for sausage is the best part!

[@ptrinch]

1:00 How they do it is quite simple. The rotisserie chickens are little 3 pounders at $1.66/lb. The whole raw chicken 2 pack are a pair of 5 to 6 pound chickens at $1.49/lb. Also, they take no profit from the rotisserie chicken. Rather, the profit comes from the wide complements of prepared side dishes that are conveniently placed next to the display case. Regardless... still a great deal for a ready for table option and they taste great. Fresh rotisserie chicken for dinner, shred the left overs for a chicken salad sandwich at lunch, and toss the carcass in an InstaPot for a couple quarts of broth. A gift that keeps on giving.

[@lazycoffeeguy]

Did you know that in your video your comparing two completely different types of salmon? Atlantic and Soceye are different types of fish. Atlantic has more fat and is what restaurants and sushi places use. Soceye is also good but much leaner and is often about a third of the size of an Atlantic salmon regardless if it is wild or farm raised. That’s why the Atlantic cost more. Love the channel so far! Trying to learn how to save money for my family. Thanks for the content, learning a lot!

[@Sushihunter250]

Given a choice between Farmed Salmon and Wild Sockeye Salmon, ALWAYS take the Wild Salmon! Unfortunately, the Wild Sockeye Salmon you showed in this video was not treated well. You can tell by the way the meat has all those splits and breaks in it instead of being a solid piece. That generally means it was not processed and refrigerated/frozen quickly enough. Could also be rough handling before being frozen. For Sushi & Sashimi, you want the Wild Sockeye.

[@fishin4bogey]

I always buy wild caught fish. Farm raised is LOADED with antibiotics and other shiite never found in salt water fish.

The pork tenderloin is very popular with Asian families as we grind it and use it to make dumplings and other things that need group pork. The meat is always good quality and such a great deal.

Pork loin is so versatile and so cheap. I make hams out of it, canadian bacon, cube it up and make all kinds of mexican pork dishes - I have some adobada marinating right now. For $15-$18 I can feed myself for a month and not get bored with what's there. For sausages, I do prefer the boston butts though. Even boneless you can cut out the coppa muscle to make capicola, grind the rest for brats, italian sausage, chorizo, whatever you want. Also starting to get into the fermented sausages so salamis and such. Again, for not much.
