    Where is the best place? Some people say costco but other people say they shit gets put out too long too.

    Mexican Mercado?

    Regular ass grocery?

    Just got a vacuum sealer so gotta buy in bulk and preserve in freezer (I use the Sous Vide to cook)

    Best fucking steak i have ever had was from Sous Vide. Buddies and I bought some expensive ribeyes from Costco and it was orgasmic.

    The Meating Place on Cornelius Pass Road in... maybe Portland? I'm not sure where it swaps over to Hillsboro.

    Yeah, I fucking love Sous Vide. Gotta get a good searing pan, just some cast iron grill shit. I do like 90% of my cooking via Sous Vide + Instant Pot lately.

    The meat department at the Hawthorne Fred Meyers is pretty bomb. They age and cut the meat there in store but sell it for the advertised price of all the other Freddy's.

    I had some custom cut angus rib eyes last night that were fucking amazing for only $9.99/lb.

    Been going to Gartner's on Killingsworth since I was a little kid but since the hipsters fell in love with the place their prices are insane. Great meat but not worth the price.

    Phil's Uptown Meat Market off 23rd and Burnside. Great quality meat. It can be pricey but you get what you pay for.

    I go to Gartner's weekly during the summer. I live not too far. Their pepperoni sticks that they chill are out of this world. I grill a lot on my traeger during the summer months.

    I also go to Cason's meat market in Kenton every once in awhile. Its not too bad. Also, Western Meat market over on Lombard.

    But, Gartners is the best.

    I have a Sous Vide. The steaks are amazing and fool proof, very easy to make the perfect steak, but you gotta get a good quality steak.

    I buy most of our meat from Costco.

    My brother in law and sister in law just got a Instant Pot and love it. I've been thinking about getting one.

    Old Salt Market on 42nd is a legit spot.
