Chub rolls are cheaper by the pound if you buy by the case, provided you have the freezer space or if you are able to buy that much at one time. We consume a lot of ground beef and it made more sense to pay $3.25 a pound for 90/10 instead of $3.78.

Omg I'm doing this 😂 Great tip, thanx ❤

I would never be the Carnivore Food Police. You do you. That is how I feel. I shop the manager specials at the end of the night at my store (I work at ShopRite). Some ppl get on me for shopping for expiring meat. It is not expired yet. I buy it, cook it up either that night or the next day. It is perfectly good. I do that witth other products at the store too - Just because it says “Sell Through” doesn’t mean it is expired. It means we can’t sell it past that date because of the FDA or USDA rules. My family is healthy and happy. You do you.

New subscriber here that is carnivore.. I used to get meat at sams club until I found a grocer that sells prime rib roasts and NY strip roasts. Buy a roast and cut into steaks yourself will save you a TON of money. Prime rib roast in my area in Oklahoma runs @$8.89/lb. I can typically get 22 rib eye steaks from 1 roast. That alone is $6/lb savings! Also, skirt and flank steak are high heat fast sear cuts. I use my air fryer set to 400 degrees for couple min on each side. Cut AGAINST the grain to get the meat tender. Try some beef short ribs for a quick tastey treat. Bake at 350 for 20-25 min. I also make beef tenderloin chips for my snacks. Just go beyond the jerky stage in your dehydrator. Keep up the great content😊

I’m transitioning into carnivore from keto and I got a Sam’s Club membership recently. This video is super helpful! Packed with tons of great information. And had to just compliment your skin, you are glowing!

Beef Cheeks are used to make barbacoa, typically smoked, then confit cooked until very tender. It is awesome. You can also cook the tongue the same way but it is very lean. The tongue is sometimes called Lengua. Can just be slow-cooked in a crock pot. It can be cooked with the cheeks also and mixed together.

Dr. Berry just did a video saying that you should shop according to your budget. This is great information. Thank you.

We buy all of our beef and pork from a Local Butcher Shop, its a bigger investment but i never pay more than 3.25 lb for everything

At Sam's Club they now have Grass-Fed Beef Burgers is the frozen section where the only ingredient is Grass-Fed beef.😁

Picked up a package of Choice Ribeye at my Costco in Georgia 30 minutes ago and the everyday price has been lowered to $10.99/lb...down from $12.99/lb last week. Also picked up a 5lb bag of frozen 100% Grass-Fed 80/20 pre-made burgers for $24.79.

Thank you so much for saying that it’s okay to buy the meats that one can afford!! Sometimes I feel so shamed by people who say you should ONLY BUY grass fed, organic, pastured meats. Not all of us can afford those meats but we still want to be healthy. I appreciate you❤

Costco has the cleanest turkey deli meat I've found. The Dietz and Watson originals organic roasted turkey breast. Ingredients: turkey water, salt and vinegar. Delicious!

Thank you so much for teaching about the "choice" and the "select" meat!!! Never would've known! We bought some steak last week and it was very chewy... Still ate it though! It was probably select 🙄 lol

5+ years and you're doing amazing! 5-year Carnivore here as well. You guys are an inspiration. Great video today. I don't have a Sam's Club account but I will consider getting one now. That's some nice looking cuts.

Careful of the shrimp, anything from the Far East is a huge "no-no" they're "farmed" in basically "cess pools" or "sewage ponds," so they are fed heavily GMO and antibiotic feed to combat the bacteria I stick with locally "wild caught" shrimp. As far as the "pre-made frozen" hamburger patties, our Sam's has the Sirloin and the Grass Fed pre-made, 18 and 15 patties respectfully, both have one ingredient...sirloin or grass fed beef...yes, the "Angus" pre-made patties have the list of ingredients you spoke of.

I appreciate your content. I’m sorry you have to deal with the judgmental folks. Thank you Laura 😊

I had cow's tongue several times in my childhood...tender and delicious, love it. You have to "clean" it before you actually eat it, I believe you boil it so that to tenderize the outer skin of the tongue. Then, you scrape or cut off that outer layer to get to the delicious tender meat. My Mom knew how to cook it perfectly.

Great video, thank you, Laura! We don't have a Costco here so we've only had a Sam's Club membership for years. One tip for larger families - we have a couple deep freezers and we buy the meat in cases, it cuts down on the price a bit. We're a big enough family that I don't need to pre-portion the chubs of beef, chicken, or pork loin because we'll go through each one fast enough. I just thaw one at a time to use.

Do you have to request the case in advance? And, how much of a discount do you typically get? Thanks in advance!

Beef cheeks are amazing! Slow cook or pressure cook them. They taste like the most delicious, tender pot roast you've ever had.

I buy the rotessire chicken, remove the meat vacuum foodsaver and in the freezer it goes. Keep the bones for soup. I buy 4 at a time, a 1/3 of the price of raw chicken, it's already cooked. You have much more of a meat selection than we do here at my Sam's in MI.

Oh yes Sam’s Club quit selling the good pork rinds in a big jug and made a members mark brand that wasn’t very good. We had to start getting baken-ets at Dollar General because neither Wal-Mart or Sam’s club offer the traditional style which is just pork skins and salt all the other flavors have msg etc.

I hope ppl don’t come for you! I mean you’re 5 years in and doing AMAZING! I love your do what you can afford attitude. This is one of the most important things you said when I first became a subscriber. I knew then I would always be able to trust your advice and build what works for me based off your knowledge. I’m lucky to be here and excited to continue. Almost 3 years watching you now. 🥩❤️🥩

My mother loved tripe. It's cow stomach lining. Yum, right! She steamed it and cut it into small pieces. Buttered, salt, and pepper. Said it tasted better than pasta!!! Yeah!

Your videos are realistic for most of us! As you said , others can do as they feel works for them! I have long enjoyed your videos!😊

I just did a Sam's run the other day. Mine had $8 off each package of ribeyes. Yay! Prime is worth it if you can get there early enough to get the yellow label meat. BTW - Costco has bacon crumbles, too. I put them in/on everything.

Our Sam’s Club has sirloin burger patties, which the only ingredient is beef!🎉

Tripe is the stomach lining. The plains Indians had dried Tripe squares as a staple (from Bison).

OMG! I love the Scan and Go. Idk why people are still standing in line. I totally agree Costco needs to get with the times. They’re thinking is probably they want you to have the cashier interaction. I don’t care about that I want in/out quickly 😂

Slow cook beef cheeks and all the connective tissue turns gelatinous, then flash them off in a really hot oven and slice up for gorgeous results!

Beef cheeks cooked low and slow can be made similar to pot roast it has alot of collagen and has the same stickiness that ox tails have. Mexicans make barbacoba light garlic, a bay leaf or 2 some onion and put it in the Crock pot.

Love your videos on how you feed your family. My husband and I are ranchers so we eat a lot of beef and sometimes I buy beef at the grocery store when our freezer is low or out. Anytime you buy beef, you help ranchers make a living -- no matter where you buy it. I'd love a video on how you use your griddle. We just bought one this winter and so far, it's great. Bacon, burgers, steaks, eggs, we love it all on the griddle.

Another great post Laura! As usual thanks!! 🥰

For my Sam's they do their meat mark downs on Mondays and Wednesdays. I used my plus membership to get in first thing on a Monday or Wednesday once a month to stock up.

We tried the Pitmaster Seasoned Pulled Pork and love it, thanks for mentioning that!!

Oh those chili pork rinds were so tart. I love chili lime flavoring but those made my cheeks pucker. I didn’t think to dip in sour cream. I’m sure that mellows them out.

Thanks for sharing! I love your videos and your ideas, it gives me ideas since I just started. 😃

I want to thank you. I work to put my kids through there activities and as they get older, they get more expensive. Def can’t afford farm butcher on a reg basis.

If I’m feeling cheaty… I watch your videos to keep motivated! So thank you!!

Love the grocery haul videos. We do not have a Sam's or a Costco in our town. We have to drive about 45 minutes to shop at either store and it is a lot of traffic so we just shop usually at a Kroger in our town but we used to go to Sam's a lot.

Very helpful. Thanks for the walk through

Beef cheeks are LIFE. Slow cook or braise them, but cook them low and slow. They're incredible.

I like to parallel someone waiting in line to check out and do my scan and go. Then I grin and show them my barcode on my phone and head for the door. I've made some converts doing that.

Super helpful Laura, thank you!! Buying a membership as we speak!!

These unique cuts must be specific to your region. None of our Sam’s Club’s here in Tennessee or where I lived in southern Indiana had these.

Is anyone else worried about mRNA in the meat?

This was BIG BIG BIG help, thank you

This was super helpful and informative. Thanks!

I've noticed that ALL The carnivore shopping seems to be done at Costco, but that's about 40 minutes away from us and Sam's Club is right next to us. So thank you for this! And as excited as you are about the scan and go, which is amazing, especially if you've already looked in the app and saved it before you even got there, they are also going to make it to where you can walk out the door without someone checking your receipts soon! And you will walk through something that automatically does it.

This video is awesome! I just went to Sam's the other day. Thanks for sharing. I will try some of your choices. Everything looks so delicious!

I found brisket at Sam's Club for $2.28 per pound. Needless to say, I bought a couple. I'm learning how to smoke on my grill so I will be grilling soon.

WOW, just discovered your Vids! Super awesome! I totally agree, you can't eat super high end all the time! We do prime once in a while but most of the time were are doing "Choice" also. You're prices there look great too! I am "trapped" in CA and it's insane..haha, HELP!!

Thank you Laura!

Costco does carry better quality meats but they’re also more expensive, like you said Sam’s Club does carry a bigger selection with more options and they have a much bigger selection of pork than Costco.

Laura! Find a good hole in the wall Mexican food place and order menudo (it has tripe!) and lengua (beef tongue) tacos. Both items are so delicious!

Yes, LOVE the Scan & Go, Costco should get on board! Thanks for your videos.

Hi Laura I just finished watching your first YT video you are an inspiration I love your honesty about your struggle with food I went full carnivore 2 weeks ago and have lost 11 lbs I was on ketovore for 2 years and lost 50 lbs but stalled for 6 months keeping carbs down to 0 to 10 grams per day my Dr told me she wants me to be between 165 to 170 lbs which is my ideal weight range 25 lbs to go

In seriously thinking about a carnivore lifestyle. Your videos have really inspired me and I’ve learned so much about the different cuts of meat. Everything looks so delicious and I’m ready to go shopping. I live in an apartment with limited kitchen space, I have an air fryer but no access to a smoker or barbecue. I need some help finding tasty ways to cook steak and other cuts of meat. Can you give me some ideas?

I keep things really simple-season the steaks/pork chops with a seasoning blend that my local butcher makes in house, cube the meat and cook it in a frying pan on the stove top with butter and avocado oil (I’m more ketovore than pure carnivore at this point). Cook on medium, for just a few minutes. Sometimes I get crazy and throw mushrooms with the meat while cooking lol. This is my go to cooking method for steaks 🙂

The pork rind bag with the seasoning …. Is great!! Happy to know Sams Club sells it.

I really appreciate how you purposefully show the "ideal" product (like Irish butter) and then select the regular kind. The common narrative is that grass fed or organic is the only option we should consider, but that's too expensive sometimes! Thank you.

Great haul Laura for another option ! Thank you

If I recall, the grass fed beef patties in the freezer section, do not have those additional ingredients.

Thank You Laura for this great video!!!

Thanks for the tips!

Love your videos! Love that you make carnivore feel budget friendly. So many videos emphasize grass fed ands make you feel like eating Sam's meat it going to kill you. Thank you for showing us this can be done without breaking the bank.

I had no idea Sams club had that much variety! Hummm and what a great haul of meats ! The big tub of pork rinds have been deleted at Costco but that doesn’t mean they won’t be back ! They just make room for new stuff then bring those back ! Thanks for sharing this haul ! Food for thought 🤣

As someone who is chronically ill (although I've been getting better and better with supplements and carnivore), I don't have the energy and bandwidth to try to find a farm and go there all the time on top of my grocery store trips. Not to mention I really can't eat steaks anymore because of the amount of dental work I've had done (I really tried, but it takes me 10 years to eat a steak, hurts my jaw and teeth, and there are always lots of parts I actually can not chew enough and have to spit out). So ya, people need to keep their comments to themselves regarding what WE should do. Stay in your lane, Karens. 🤣 Love the grocery hauls, gives me ideas! I mostly like chicken thighs, cheese stuffed and bacon wrapped meatloaf, bacon by itself, or burgers. Just bought the avocado mayo that was in Judy's story the other day and going to try some egg and chicken salads, maybe deviled eggs. I'm going to go look for your cheese bread (bread cheese?) at Aldi later this week, Primal Kitchen also had a clean garlic marinara sauce that I picked up so I thought it would be a nice treat for "bread sticks."

Your honest, real, reasonable , informativeand charming…….appreciate your videos.🎉😊

So helpful! Thank you!❤

Thanks for the video! I’ve been contemplating on whether to go with Costco or Sam’s Club

If you have a restaraunt depot in town you can go to the desk there and get a day pass and they sell cuts of every kind of meat you could ever want in every grade. They also sell almost all the stuff by the case for extra savings.

Thanks for explaining the Select, choice label.

I buy one a week of Sam’s Beef Cheek. I cook it slow and low in oven or in crock pot overnight. I only use salt for seasoning. It’s the most tender, best beef flavored beef I have ever eaten. I will never buy a roast again. I make taco bowls, I mix pork rind noodles, (ketogenic women) recipe, I use beef shank broth w my beef cheek and pork rind noodles for a soup that is so delicious. Yum. Can go wrong. Use it anywhere you use ground beef or roast.

Given what they are saying they are going to inject in meats i skip Costco and Walmart and buy from local beef ranchers. Thank you for the information and discount for LMNT. I'm finding the fruity samples and so far like citrus salt and plain.

beef cheeks are good for beef barbacoa, but you can just slow cook them in a crock-pot or even the oven. I love tri-tip too, it's my fav of all the cuts. And the real bacon bits I use in carnivore quiche. Delicious!
