I thought the reason Tri-Tip became popular was because it was really inexpensive cut of beef that could be cooked to taste like expensive cuts. But when Creekstone Tri-Tip is on sale and is still over $10 /lb, doesn't that kind of defeat the purpose of buying Tri-Tip when I can buy Costco USDA Prime beef Rib Eye for $9.69 /lb? For those who's buying this, how do you justify to yourself paying so much for Tri-Tip? Do you say to yourself it's normally over $20 /lb so on sale for $10 /lb is a deal? The last Tri-Tip I bought, I paid $1.80 /lb at Costco. It was USDA Select. I could've paid $2.80 /lb for USDA Choice but I didn't think it was worth paying $1.00 /lb more for Choice over Select.
