Good

Excellent for stew

I ordered this for delivery which I don't usually do for produce or meat, which this reminds me why. The steak bites looked great from the top until I opened the package. They were a nice red color on the top, but completely brown and spoiled on the backside. Very disappointing!

My meat was bad

This was the worst stew beef I have ever purchased! Most of the pieces appeared to be left over cutting table scraps which were long miss-shappened pieces between 1/8 and 1/4" thick. The few chunks that were included had so much gristle, that by the time I trimmed the gristle off, I threw out more that 1/2 lb. of the 3 lb. package that I purchased. Additionally, the meat was so tough that even after marinating it for over 6 hours we could barely chew it.

I was being lazy and didn't want to ho to the store. Thank goodness for Sam's delivery. I haven't tried Sam's stew meat before, but thought I would give it a try. What a great surprise! I did cut some of the larger pieces in half, and did trim some hard fat off, but nothing major. It cooked up so tender, when cooked low and slow. It was much better than the more expensive meat that I get from the local butcher. I will be picking up additional packs. My lil rat terrier loves the meat as well. A "win win".
