THE
AWARE SHOPPER

How to get more meat
for your meat dollar
Price per portion, not price per pound
No matter what cuts of meat you buy,
here’s an important rule to follow. It’s
the price per serving that counts, not the
price per pound. If boneless round is
$1.49 per pound it’s a better buy than
short ribs at 98' per pound. Because you
can get 4 servings out of the boneless
round at about 38' apiece. Whereas you
might only get two servings out of the
short ribs at about 49' apiece.
Of course the size of a serving really
depends on your family’s individual r
needs. But three ounces of cooked lean S
meat is the most common definition of a
serving. And two is a satisfactory amount
for small children, or older people with
small appetites.
In planning your shopping list, the
following guides to portions per pound
can help.
Purchase Yield:
1 lb. boneless low-fat meat, 3-4 portions
such as lean meat cubes
or roast.
1 lb. boneless fatty meat 2-4 protions
1 lb. small-bone meat, such 2 portions
as blade roast or chops.
% to one pound bony meat, - ..... . 1 portion ...
such as spareribs.
Tips from the A&P Butcher.
Meat you buy at special prices is an
investment that pays off when you use
some and store the rest in your home
freezer for future use. To make the most
of this opportunity to save, here are some
freezer tips.
1. Wrap meats in single meal, or single
portion quantities.
2. Put two sheets of paper between pairs
of shaped patties or steaks, so that they
can easily be separated while still frozen.
3. Wrap the meat tightly in moisture and
vapor-proof paper. Lay the meat in the
center of the wrap, bring the long edges
together, fold over and over, butcher’s
style flat against the meat, fold ends of
the wrap over and over to make a tight
seal. Tie firmly or seal, with freezer tape.
4. Label each package with contents and
date of storage. Be sure to use the meat
before the recommended storage time is
up.
5. Freezer storage times are 6-8 months
for beef and poultry, 6-7 months for
lamb, 3-4 months for pork and veal, 1-3
months for ground meat and cooked
meat and 1 month for sausage.
