Default Re: What's in your smoker?

Picked up some nice Butt cut steaks tonight at Kroooeger, for some reason, the intense marbling attracted me,
when it's probably not necessary in a pork steak. They had BBRs on sale for 2.97 a lb, and I got so mad yester-
day, I spent lunch going down there and they were marked at 5.99/lb. I fussed at the meat manager, with the store
manager standing right there, and he told me they would scan properly at the register. I told him, "Do you think
I am an idiot? Do you think I do not know how the scanner works on meat items like this?" I put the meat
back in the case and told him it needed to be fixed. Today I went in there and again, it was all at the old price.
So in CASE I am the bigger idiot, I scanned one and sure enough, $17.99. I was pi$$ed! So I grabbed the store manager
who ironically was standing there again, and I walked him back to the case, bit@hing all the way. He said that he
had no memory of my statements the day before, and I said, 'right, because if you did and it was still wrong, you'd
be negligent, of course you're gonna say that." "This meat is at the wrong price even after I threw a fit, and now
I have wasted two lunch hours in a row on this BS. I'd like it fixed now, while I am standing here". So he called the
meat manager and I went in the back and watched him fix 40 racks of ribs. Then after all that, I started to
walk out, and he said "Wait, aren't you gonna buy some ribs?" And I said, "No, I am out of lunch hour now,
and I am not sure I am ever coming back. This is not just BS, it's a serious lack of ethics on behalf of
the whole chain and an insult to my intelligence. I was lied to twice in two days, besides.

Hell I have a freezer full of slabs, and a better Kroooeger store down the street.

OH, I am smoking 40 wings....and in the morning, 2 slabs of BBRs. And yes, pics tonight.
