if i had to pay $17 a lb for meat I think I probably just wouldn't ever have any. The steaks were ok, but I'm not excited about the prospect of eating another one unfortunately. I have 1 left in the fridge and froze the rest. I will likely hastily eat the one in the fridge before it spoils and the rest, well they are probably doomed to a several month stint in the freezer until I eventually throw them out.
The air fryer worked so well for the cheap cut that I think I am ready to take on a more expensive cut and I will dive into that the next time I am at the butcher.
I really don't eat as much beef as I used to before I met my wife. Those two steaks will probably last me a couple of months. I have a feeling they will stay vacuum sealed in the freezer for a while. I've got about ten pounds of ground beef I bought from my cousin and it will likely last me a full year if not longer.
