Sam's club the best place to buy meat!!!!

The top three ground beef in the city of Lincoln. The daily price is better then the grocery store sale price week in and week out. The best is Sam's club 10 pound 92 percent lean tubes. And the third best is Sam's club smashed burgers frozen, the fourth best is Sam's club Angus patties frozen. Sam's club the best place to buy meat.... Ground beef, carver hams, rotisserie chicken, the members mark chicken in a can bears brand name, for quality. More chicken less water and grease every time.

Good

This is a great product if you go get it yourself. Unfortunately, when you do pick up, the shoppers don’t pay attention to best by date. We have needed up getting this as pick up on the date it was oxidizing and tastes nasty. When I get it myself, I check the date and only purchase if there are 3-5 days till the “best of used by” date. As long as you cook it or freeze it before it starts browning, it’s delicious. Once it browns, even a little it’s just plain nasty. IMO

Lean ground beef

Lean but not too lean. It does need to be cooked within a day or two after purchasing. Great value for the money.

Less weightthan paid for

Quality is very good. Only issue is the weight is always below the priced weight by several ounces. i always split it up into roughly 1 lb portions for meals and it never adds up to the total weight on the pricing label. Latest purchase showed 4.8 lbs (76.8 oz). when I divided into 4 portions, I totaled 71.7 oz. It's a similar difference every time. Not sure if they are including some of the packaging, their scales are off, or they are intentionally shorting customers.

NO HELP @ MEAT SERVICE AREA (SERVICE BELL)

Bar code on meat package wouldn't scan & numbers were obliterated so unable to manually enter. I rang meat department service bell to ask for meat to be reweighed so new label would be scannable. After waiting for 5 minutes (with 3 bell rings), I gave up.

Very fatty meat

So much fat, must be 80/20. I routinely buy 93-97 lean and have very little if any fat. I had soo much fat to drain off of this browned hamburger it was ridiculous. I thought a larger package would be better for a gathering but I will stick to what I know

Shorted Again!

This is the third time we've bought this MM 88/12 ground beef and it's always around 2/3lb underweight! I weight it and vacuum seal it in 1 lb packages and it's always significantly short of the weight on the label. My scale has been calibrated and weighs dead on at every other store including Walmart except for Sam's Club. This has been going on for almost a year and we will never buy this ground beef again. Prices are way though to be getting shorted 1/2 - 2/3 lb every time. This is at their main Bentonville, AR store.

Smelt like death and I wouldn’t feed it to my dog

The meat smelt really really bad. I mean, I’ve bought marked down meat before that didn’t smell like that. I’ve accidentally left meat in my trunk for half a day that didn’t smell like that. It smelt worse than meat I’ve left in the fridge for over 2 weeks that I’ve forgotten about. I was seriously shocked that they would even consider putting it out for consumers to buy. I came back, returned it, went and got another package that had a newer date and time and that one also smelt just as bad which makes we wonder if they just repacked it and put it back out. The lady at the return counter said that she’s been getting many ground beef returns that day. I’ve always made an effort to buy my ground beef at Sam’s club instead of going elsewhere but now I’m hesitant and I don’t know when I’ll trust Sam’s club ground beef again. It’s going to take a lot of time and a lot of convincing before I’ll buy beef from Sam’s club again.

Gray Meat

The meat I received in my order had gone bad two days after I picked it up. The use-by date was 5 days after that, so I'm wondering if the meat had been sitting out while waiting for pickup (I wasn't late, though). It had turned gray, and I should have returned it, but it was too much of a hassle.
