Very bad.

Bought two packs and regret it. Cooked up the first pack and it's more than half (75%) fat and gristle. Very little actual, useable meat. This is going to the dog's lunch.

The beef cheek tacos came out perfect. For anyone complaining about fat, you have to know how to trim them prior to cooking and they take a long time to cook. Check out a few youtube videos on how to trim and prepare them. The wait is worth it!

We followed a video we found on YouTube to make amazing barbacoa tacos. Yes you need to trim a little fat, but it is still a great value with how much meat you get

Loved this item. My family loves barbacoa and we’re very pleased with the quality. For those who says it’s too greasy, they don’t know it’s also collagen and it’s supposed to be that way.

I’m cooking a piece today so I’m really not sure what to expect.. being a senior I look for I inexpensive cuts of meat. While Hamburg is an excellent choice freezing bulk is too much for **. I’ve googled cheek and being a decent of Guatemala I’m looking forward to trying and continuing purchasing..I’ve even told a cousin ** Dacula about my purchase!

I make barbacoa for our Día de los Reyes Magos (Three Kings Day) dinner celebration every year and per our family tradition had always made it out of the whole beef head but 3 years ago we bought a new stove with a double oven and an entire beef head will not fit. So I began purchasing the beef cheeks at Sam’s along with a couple of the tongues and it worked wonderfully. I shop around and always compare prices and Sam’s has the lowest per pound for these around here. I am regretting saying that because I am hoping they won’t start become hard to find when I need them. They are delicious! Yes, you will end up with quite a bit of grease. That is just part of the process when you cook cheeks. When cooking with the addition of the tongues it helps keep everything moist while it cooks will not let the tongues dry out. After fully cooked just drain the excess grease before beginning to shred everything together. Yum! My mouth is watering right now! With some tortillas, pico, rice, and beans and you’re ready to chow down. I can’t wait.

Beef cheek is an unusual cut of meat l, I think it's a bit expensive after I trimmed off lots of fats, I like to make stews with it, it has a different texture and taste that I like/ compare to regular beef stew meats.(I'm an older Asian generation, we don't waste anything, my children and grandchildren wont even try ckeek stew ) , It also good to make "phở "' broth, it's very rich tasting broth ater a few hours of simmering, a bit cheaper than oxtail's. may I suggest to sam's to sales beef bones for making beef broth, I buy the beef's kneecaps ** leg bones with all the tendons still attatched at Asian super markets.

5.8-pound package and only 1.2 pounds of usable meat. If I wanted to pay essentially $22/lb, I’d buy elsewhere and not have to put in the extra effort or be concerned about carelessly handled meat, since it came out of the package mangled—almost as if the person cutting the meat had absolutely no idea what they were doing.

I bought $52 brought it home put it in 3 seal a meal bags and froze.The one I kept out I cooked in my oven in my clay pot with seasonings and some beef broth for 12hrs @ 200 and it was delicious! I never trim it as the fat is what makes the flavor the broth it makes I strain and make French onion soup.My husband and I get 5 dinners of tacos out of 7 lbs so good so glad I found them @ Sams very hard to find here ...easy in Texas!
