$.39 rib tips

motley que · May 24, 2006

so i read the food section of the paper today and a market has rib tips at $.39 per pound. I load up the cart and the total comes to $14.97. Almost 43 pounds of rib tips are now vacuum sealed and will last a while. The wife and I prefer baby backs so this is a perfect way for me to make a chef snack from time to time.

There's a Korean market near me called Gallaria Market that sells the odd cuttings from the ribs all the time for 35 or 39 cents / pound as the regular price. I usually get about 10 pounds which is really more than I need but for only three bucks and change, how can you go wrong?

And where is this wonderful place?

Very nice, yes St. Louis, do you have ESP or did you snag that info off the rib america thread?

Spares? I checked Costco in Santa Barbara yesterday and they had BBs for $3.99 lb. Good thing I have some in the freezer that were $2.99lb
Probably because I were in Santa Barbara.

Motley - is that a local store/chain or a national chain that's got those prices?

I wish it were a requirement that people put where they are from in their profile. I know some of you are ashamed that you are not in or from Texas but that should not preclude you from stating where you are from.:biggrin:

Crap, I got my loin ribs the other day down in PHX.
$3.23 lb. And that's with case discount.
Jumped almost a buck now in one year.
First time since opening I had to change the price of ribs on the menu.

Just going to go with "Market" price from now on.

Almost no choice with the constant fluctuation. And it only seems to be fluctuating up.
