In this video I am going to show you how to save money cutting your own New York Strip Steaks at home. I went to Costco and bought a whole Strip Loin and cut it into individual NY Strip steaks. It takes a little extra effort but the results are amazing. You can control everything about your steak. Do you like a leaner steak or a more fattier cut? You can decide how thick or thin you want. Give this a try right away and start reaping the benefits.
------------------------------
Here is the cut test breakdown. Let’s see what we saved.
The whole New York strip weighed 12.42 pounds and cost $9.19 per pound = $114.13
The New York Strips at the grocery store were $16.99 per pound
If you were to buy 12.42 pounds of Pre cut Grocery store New York Strips it would be a savings of $96.87.
I show how nothing goes to waste.
When I account for the fat that I cut off the steaks the math goes as follows:
12.42 lbs starting weight
-1.3 lbs fat and trim
11.12lbs steaks
I originally paid $114.13 for the whole strip loin
$114.13 / 11.12 lbs = $10.26 / pound
Grocery store is $16.99 / pound
$6.73 per pound difference
$6.73 X 11.12 = $74.83 savings

Following the holiday season, I would buy whole turkeys at a discounted price. I would thaw it out and break it down into many cuts for braising, stir-fry, and the like. The bonus was when I'd save all of the skin, carcass, bones, neck, giblets, season, and roast them, Then into the stockpot they went with aromatics like celery, carrots, garlic, and onions. Slow simmer overnight, then strained and picked the meat from the bones for casseroles or salad. Then I chilled the stock so I could pick off the congealed fat. The resulting stock then went into my pressure canner for homemade bone stock. Why did I do all of this work? Well, first of all, I had a large family, but I also enjoyed a sense of accomplishment.

Excellent video. I've been doing this for years, and yes you do save a ton of money. The factors that make this so attractive is that you can control how thick you want your steaks and you can also trim to your preferences. I usually set aside two (one for me and one for my wife) 1 and 3/4 inch steaks for that special occasion and cut the rest at 1 and 1/4 inches. As far as the end cut where the sirloin starts to show up, I do several things. 1) I freeze it and then shave it into meat for cheese steaks that I make on my Blackstone griddle. 2) Make it into a great pot roast or roast it in the oven cooked to medium and then thinly sliced for roast beef sandwiches on onion rolls. 3) This meat is also fantastic for stir fry beef, very high end stir fry I should say. And then sometimes I grind it and mix with ground brisket trimmings for fantastic hamburger patties.

Got a sub from me. I like very much the fact that you have no music while you are speaking. Music playing while the host is talking gets in the way. Another way to save some money is do what a friend mine in South Dakota did. His neighbor is a cattle rancher. My friend bought a quarter of a cow. He says he got 245 pounds of beef; and yes, he was able to select the cuts and the sizes. The total cost between the rancher's cost and the butcher's cost was $4.05 per pound. He sent me a photo of the first t-bone he cooked and it had me licking my phone (well, not really, but the steak looked great). He got a stand-up freezer and that's pretty much all that is in it right now.

One tip...cut probably 1/8"-3/16" bigger than you think you want for your steak thickness. Basically, with a loin like this, you have a stack of steaks standing on their sides, so they expand out that way. When you cut one and lay it flat, it will depress slightly and you'll end up with a steak that is thinner than you wanted.

As a former meat cutter, I applaud your desire to buy a better cut than what is in the grocery store. I don't often go buy a whole loin and I usually (painfully) cringe at what I find in the grocery store. I am curios what you did with the hunk at the end of the loin, where it meets the sirloin. Its clear your math put it into steaks, as there was a fairly good size piece left and your "trimmings" were only 1.3 pounds. Seems a bit light there, given the typical fat cap still on a whole loin.

@ButcherWizard Жыл бұрын

The 1.3 pounds was just the fat that I trimmed off the individual steaks. The sirloin end makes amazing hamburgers and ground meat. I am also testing out making high end beef jerky with it for another video. You can still cut it into steaks. I mainly wanted to show people what to look out for when they buy pre cut steaks. A lot of grocery stores sell strip steaks that are mainly top sirloin. I am just trying to educate people on the differences in the cuts they can find at grocery stores. Thanks for watching and your thoughtful comment.

@aaronflohre6734 10 ай бұрын

Great video. Strip loins (boneless, bone-in are a bit of a pain) are the easiest to cut and trim, IMO. It's really hard to mess it up. Ribeyes (boneless again) are next, but not that hard with a smidge of anatomy knowledge. Tenderloin requires anatomy knowledge and sharp knives to pull off without waste. Practice, practice, practice is the key, and that means cheaper meats. De-boning a pork shoulder/boston butt is really good practice on a cheaper piece of meat (plus you could show off the elusive butchers knot to tie it into a roast). Might be worth a video, if you haven't done one yet.

You have to be careful on picking out your meat from Costco. The last two times I have been burned. My most recent purchase was a 14+ pound strip loin from Costco that was 1/3 fat. I trimmed over 4 pounds of fat off the steaks-when I say fat there was not a ounce of meat in any of the fat I trimmed away. my $9.59 a pound strip loin ended up costing me over $14 a pound for the actual meat I got. I rendered down the 4lbs of fat and ended up with about 2 1/2 pounds of tallow. My wife told me that was some expensive cooking oil 😂 and I agree. The quality at Costco is not what it was pre-pandemic.

Please dont think Im being a smart ass. Thanks for the informative video. I just returned from COSTCO. I selected a 13# strip loin USDA Choice like the one you show. $9.22/lb. I then looked at the "pre-cut" NY strip steaks (4 pack about 1 3/4" thick) $15.68/lb. So I said, yup the guy is spot on. There were also NY Strip steaks to the left of this big piece I thought they were the same, BUT they too were priced at $9.22/lb. Same as the primal cut. None of them had the sirloin nodule on them, (which I never knew about before watching this so thank you) so I said WTF? Then the ah ha moment....the $15/lb ones were USDA PRIME more marbled, etc. The $9/lb ones were USDA CHOICE. Same quality grade I was about to buy in the primal cut. The primal cut was $126 total and based on the good information you provided I would get about 7 steaks before I ran into the sirloin end. Buying them individually in 2 4 packs gave me 8 steaks for $110. I couldn't justify doing the work to trim and butcher the primal cut. In this case I would be actually spending more and have to do the work the only 'gain' to me would be the appx 2# sirloin end.

We moved the the Columbia, SC area about a year and a half ago. Their is a US Foods Grocery store that anyone can shop at. They have sales on slabs of meat. I usually wait till it’s 2 to 3 something a pound. Chicken is usually cheap as well. I started grinding chicken and beef. Yes, it cost me time but I have some to waste and I’m saving loads of money.

When I buy a whole strip loin at Costco, I peel off a lot of that fat cap and then trim out most of the tendons that run underneath the fat cap. They're inedible, tough to chew, and I just like to get rid of them so that the steaks are just more pleasant to eat. I do it before I cut the whole loin into individual steaks. Just overall faster that way. And then dry brine in the fridge overnight with just salt. And I like thicker steaks than what grocery stores want to cut them.

Thank you! Very informational. Subscribed! My brother was a meat-cutter (he preferred that term to "butcher") nearly all of his life. I bestow upon you his rank of "Bovine Surgical Genius". 💯

Videos are looking good and the amount of editing work you've been able to improve on is impressive! Love the content but I highly suggest you purchase a lanyard microphone to use while doing this. It'll take the quality of your audio up a few notches and add more quality to the videos. Keep up the good work! I can't wait to get back home and do this for me and the wife for dinner

Just watching to get some possible tips, but one i know is partially freeze your whole loin and then cut makes it easier.

I used to be a meat cutter at a little grocery store 15+ years ago before Kroger came into the area. Idk why I havent been doing this. I found it to be an enjoyable job.

I did this today and made beef tallow with the extra fat. Turned out well and super simple, will do again.

Great video. My neighborhood market had "family pack" NY strip on sale for $1 less per lb. Turns out it was the whole strip, 15 lbs or so. With only the $1 savings, it's probably not worth it as you're paying for all the extra fat and CT (and top sirloin). But it is tempting to be able to cut a few different thicknesses so that i can cook a rare steak and a medium in similar cooking times, or in the same cast iron pan. I'm tempted, especially since we got a good Wusthoff knife for Xmas.

Buy the whole slab of meat, cut it yourself, salt, pepper and garlic powder it, stick two steaks in a vacuum bag, vacuum pack it, freeze it, and drop the package in your sous vide from frozen. Cook it for three hours at 128F and when done, pat dry, sear on a fire or hot cast iron pan with a light coating of oil in it, and down the hatch.

Keep in mind if you’re comparing quality to quality, the value bulk meats cost even less than the prime top cuts of the traditional store-bought meat. Biig win 🥩💰💪

Here is WA state the primal and precut meat is the same price per pound at Costco.

@kevinrenn9123 Жыл бұрын

Same story with ground beef. Here, the 10 lb tube is 1/2 the price per pound as the 1 or 2 lb packages so I've been buying in bulk, vacuum sealing and freezing

@drivinolered5835 3 ай бұрын

It’s definitely a huge cost savings over grocery store prices on pre-cut steaks. I did notice, however, Costco has relatively the same price per pound whether it’s whole or cut into steaks. I looked for ribeye and strip steaks and the $/lb was the same for pre-cut and uncut. That said, still a lot cheaper than grocery stores.

I paired the shavings from the Strips, with the shavings from the Tri-tip and ground it up with the sirloin and the ground beef that came from it was legendary.

@thedude4795 Жыл бұрын

The vacuum sealed bag to freeze in is excellent, because you want to thaw meat in water, it retains so much texrue. When you freeze it, you want to freeze it quick to, so put the freezer on "quick freeze" or whatever your brand calls the function, and only put in 4-5 pounds of food in at a time. Freeze time is reduced, and thaw time, and thats the idea, for retaining texture, freeze quick - thaw quick.

I have a freeze dryer -- might use that for a quick freeze since it goes down MUCH colder and faster!
