How To
How to Buy Organic Meat Even on a Limited Budget
In this post I'll share some tips and techniques for buying organic meat that won't break the bank.
I'll give you some tips about where to find organic meats at a low price and how much it costs per pound. Learn how to get maximum value from the products you buy.
For healthy eating, you don’t have to spend a lot. Sometimes you need to be creative in order to save money and still eat healthy. Here are my top tips for keeping food costs down and still enjoying the many benefits of organic meat.
- Wholesale clubs - Sams Club and Costco are great places for bulk food like chicken breasts or pork chops. These stores often offer discounts on large quantities of meat, up to 50 pounds, if you are lucky enough to be near one. This ensures that meat is not wasted. Also, if you buy in bulk, it can be frozen so it lasts for longer.
- Shop around online - Tons of websites sell meat at discounted prices. Amazon offers Prime Pantry, a weekly deal with free shipping on orders above $35. They offer discounts for beef roasts and ground beef as well as lamb steaks, lamb steaks, pork loins, and other items. It's easy to browse their website and see what's available at different times.
- Find a local farmer - Local farmers usually charge less than big box retailers because they do not pay considerable fees to stock their shelves. Local farmers also know exactly what their animals have eaten and drank so they can determine what's in their bodies.
- Look out for cuts that are the leanest. It's generally less expensive to cook lean meat than fatty. Look for the tiniest cuts. These include sirloin, tenderloin, top round, flank, and top-round steaks. These cuts are very low in fat and high in protein.
- You don't have to be afraid to try new recipes. It's possible to reduce grocery expenses by cooking new recipes using ingredients you've never tried before. You might be amazed at the delicious recipes you can create with fresh tomatoes and onions, garlic, olive oils, and spices.
- Remaining meat and poultry can be used for sandwiches, salads or soups. You can make quick meals or lunches from leftover meat.
