So I just got this coupon for 10 burgers, 8 hot dogs, 1 lb of boneless pork chops, and 40oz of steaks for $49.99. You also get 9oz of "stuffed Sole with Scallops and Crabmeat" and 10 potatoes au Gratin.

Good deal? I've never tried their stuff before.

Maybe our resident meat salesmen can tell me whats up.

My in-laws get Omaha steak products on occasion and they seem to like them.

I'm not overly impressed with Omaha steak stuff, but for 49.99 it's good enough. We raise our own beef so I'm sorta picky, but again, the price is right and hte quality is above average.

omaha steak is decent stuff. I really like their burgers.

It basically comes out to ~$6.50 a lb for the meat, plus the other 2 things. I guess the big question is, is it worth $6.50 a lb?

No. Any decent butcher shop(not walmart) is going to have better food at a better price than that.

If the meat doesn't come with an Icky Shuffle then forget about it.

I have ordered from them several times personally and as gifts and they have great meats. Those bacon wrapped filets are like butter but I also like the steak burgers and the chops. You can't go wrong from their imo.

Remember, the price includes estimated increases for all the transportation it takes to get your front door.

Look at the wheel on the Wheel of Fortune fail thread.

There is a space with Omaha Steaks.
