You need one of those things you squeeze when you get mad or something....
Outrageous. We're talking about fajitas for s sake. They're supposed to be cheap. So now the cuts are nearing select ribeye level? Please. Whats up CCwe got a shortage of cows? Even at the ghetto meat market here I could only find it at 3.79 a pound. I remember not too long ago I was pissed off about the price increase from 1.99 to 2.99. 4.79.... ing ridiculous....is it going to suck my .....lick my asshole.
I also noticed finger ribs moved from .99 to 1.49.
I'm going to be pissed if I have to move over to flank.
What next .75 sod-e-pops.

A black baby?
So I guess now would not be a good time to tell you that my in-laws raise Angus Cows and we get our meat for free huh?
Maybe you should go buy some fish sticks, I hear they are cheap and that you absolutely love them...
So you must like having your father in law's meat in your mouth, eh?So I guess now would not be a good time to tell you that my in-laws raise Angus Cows and we get our meat for free huh?
Skirt steak sounds like slang for part of a vagina or just vagina...
feed corn used to be 40 pounds for under $4. Along comes dubya's brain-dead subidies for corn ethanol, and corn goes to refineries more. I've seen up to nearly $7.
Ask the Mexicans, who import a lot of corn from US, how much their corn tortillas cost now.
the drought in TX has wiped out a lot of corn.
cows eat corn (it's unnaturally bad for them and those who eat cows, but who cares), so cows go up in price.
Then again, maybe the seller just needed more money, so they raised the price, like a banker raises fees, because they can.
Well no doubt that HEB has the monopoly here.
ing gringo yuppies have screwed up the market...I pretty much quit buying it several years ago...I'm just not payin $4 a pound for skirt steak...Outrageous. We're talking about fajitas for s sake. They're supposed to be cheap. So now the cuts are nearing select ribeye level? Please. Whats up CC

I'm doing a lot more pork these days...I can buy Boston butts for $2 a pound, smoke em for about 6 hours wrap em and cook em for another 6 hours till they are at 195. Pull the pork, mix with a little tropical fruit juice and peppers...
It's just slap yo momma good and beats the out of fajitas on tacos.
Don't get me wrong I like pork. I can still get Spares for 1.79 at the little meat market but I still like my Chimmichurri fajitas.
I know plenty of skirt chasers.
Many people don't even know what Chimmi is. The best sauce to put on skirt steak.
I use it about half the time I make fajitas. If I've got the time I marinate the meat and about 3 pounds of mushrooms in the sauce for half a day. Keep a little on the side for dipping. I don't buy that store bought either I make it myself with habanero's and cilantro rather than parsley and cayenne. Then grill the meat and the mushrooms. Great way to eat fajitas.
If I can't find skirt steak on sale I will but a thick cut (3"-4") sirloin for the same price per pound and cut it with the grain about 3/8" thick and cook it the same as the skirt steak. Like regular fajitas but even better.
I haven't been real happy with what I'm finding in sirloins. Pork chops have been amazing lately.
I've gone to grilled chicken and cutting down on the red meat. But I can still fire up some great fajitas that rock!!
Now that it's starting to get cool I'm about to start killing pigs at the ranch. I just got the bow out last week. Gonna be lots of CosmicCowboy BBQ cooked this fall.
Pork fat rules!! Javelinas?
Seriously friend. Ship me some fresh kill.
i think he was referring to breast, just like in his sig
I am pissed off about the price of skirt steak too. It is ridiculous!!! It is not like it is a quality cut of meat to begin with. This is how I see it... back in the days of Haciendas and stuff like that the lower class could only afford to buy the lower quality cuts of meat. Then they figure out how to make it into one of the best friggin foods on the planet and then the rich folk say... "Damn this is good !!! We need to raise the price on it to make some money!!! We never thought that this meat could actually be damn good!"
