What a bunch of hooey. Never in the history of the Forum has a post been made that was so totally wrong, so completely unbelievable, such a complete and utter fabrication. Such a (dare I use the word?)
LIE!For several years I successfully convinced my wife going in on 1/2 side of beef would save us bundles of money at the grocery store. After the steaks and roasts were gone, however, I ended up with 200 lbs worth of freezer burned chuck steaks, beef ribs, and other not so choice cuts of beef.
You expect us to believe that you had 200 lbs of unusable beef left from a side? What did you manage to eat, 3 steaks and a pound of hamburger? I didn't just fall off the butcher's truck, TJ.
Sure TG - no problems swallowing my Sasquatch video but you want to debunk my side O beef story? Let the record show:
Year one: 1/2 side - WAY TOO MUCH, so-
Year two: 1/3 side - still far too much - but I managed to convince Amy that a 1/4 side was far cheaper, and we likely won't be wasting any
Year three: 1/4 side - and I still don't like beef ribs or chuck steaks much
That last purchase was in 07 - 3 failures was all I needed to learn my lesson. I tried contacting local homeless shelters, soup kitchens, etc. and they were not too jazzed about accepting raw beef - so it sat in my basement, in the extra standup freezer I convinced Amy we needed just for our beef purchases - yet remains a sore subject to this day.
