It’s Prime! Cheap Steak Sweepstakes
The recession could have a silver lining for meat eaters: cheaper steak. USDA prime beef is no longer reserved for high-end steak houses. The economic downturn and surplus of choice beef means such delights as porterhouse and NY strip are turning up in some cost-friendly stores. For a look at where to find bargains and how to prepare this top-notch fare, we are joined by Bob Huskey, a meat buyer for Costco, and our friend Melissa Clark, food writer for The New York Times.
