I'm not a big fan of Omaha steaks. I guess "fine" would be a good way to describe. I think this company is better, to be very honest. Much less $$ too.

I'd rather support the local butcher shop, which has some high end stuff.  We don't eat much meat any more, the wife prefers fish or chicken or lamb.  The steelhead trout is excellent, that is almost all we eat, grilled, when it comes to fish.

The butcher shop is not cheap obviously.  Costco has prime cuts if you want them around $20 a pound or so.

Omaha Steaks are fine or better, just overpriced

I get a gift box each xmas from a contractor for Kansas City Steaks, I prefer them to Omaha

ATL airport tower cams.  Not much happening.

Closed, but with web cams you can imagine fishing.

Centennial park is deserted.  I guess air pollution is way down.

the local butcher I went to yesterday is a much better option than a place like Omaha Steaks

I haven't opened the package with the 8 rib eyes yet, but I totaled up the bill - Charged me $12.49 a pound

all 8 right about 16 ozs = $97

fresh cut, never frozen

the chest freezer I have in my basement is smaller than some, probably about as old as I am.  Almost always chuck full as it is today and has been since long before this crisis

the fools running out to buy chest freezers are probably filling them with gallon jugs of milk!

my usual grocery was open 24 hours in the past, I'd rather go there late or early and avoid crowds

I understand they might be doing deep cleaning while closed, just not sure how much that helps after the first 15 minutes of opening the doors to the mob waiting in line
Ever notice the mob or the problem is always someone else except for our selves of course.They're talking about us on Blogs/Boards/Face Space

How good is a freezer without electricity?  Asking for a non-friend.

My kegerator is actually a 21 cu ft convertible fridge/freezer, so if I took all the kegs and beer out of it, I could store a a frozen side of beef with room to spare. But I don't plan on doing that, so I don't consider that a "freezer" at all.
Priorities,foamy,fermented elixirs is the way to go

You got reason to believe you're going to lose electricity?  Work crews cutting lines in your area or something?
