I think like most everyone else in the country, at least everyone in middle america, I have always bought pretty much everything I eat at the grocery store. Including all of my meat from the meat counter, or just the meat refrigerated section. It's just easiest. But recently I bought "special" steaks for a couple special occasions and everyone has started noticing what a big difference it makes. Steaks and roasts from a butchers shop just fill all of us up faster with less meat. We just started really testing it out and noticed the same with chicken. And with the brats and sausage the difference is extreme. So is the taste. And for the most part the price is in the same balloark, sometimes even less than grocery stores.
At my local grocery store I do get a good selection, quite a bit better than any of the butcher shops, and probably better than all of the ones I know of combined. But I can also get prime beef at one shop (sometimes) another one sells dry aged steaks and a third one does all local hormone free free range grass fed beef. Plus the brats are literally 10000000x better than Johnsonville, cost about the same, and one brat fills me up more than 2 johnsonvilles.
Anyone else notice the difference? Maybe all of you have always known?
