Safeway Grocery Store is our go to store for most food staples. It is close and convenient. They are not known for having a quality meat selection. In fact their Safeway Brand meat called Safeway Select is almost laughable in how low quality it can be. We usually go on Meat Adventures to purchase good meat until today.
This particular branch of Safeway is an hour drive. In fact we drove by a dozen other Safeways to our destination. Sure enough our Snake River Farm products were available. I broke out the credit card and bought an assortment of steak. Boneless Rib-Eye, New York strip, and two decadent filets. You could see the beautiful fat marbling throughout these quality steaks. I also had the butcher cut the New York two inches thick. You should see the smile on my face.
We are happy today with our quality purchase. Only time will tell if more Safeway's will carry the Snake River Farms meats. Until then we will enjoy our steaks today.
I wouldn't go to our Safeway location if they GAVE that meat away. Self preservasion and all ya know.

ReplyDeleteThe Alameda Safeway reliably has unbranded Prime tri-tip at a very reasonable price; that would be a logical location to stock SRF. I'll report back if I see it.
ReplyDeleteAaron, Good to know about the tri-tip. Alameda is a lot closer. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteThat's some fine looking steaks you bought.
ReplyDeleteBig Dude, They sure taste good too.
ReplyDeleteNot you average Safeway!
