How much do you sell beef ribs for? Do they sell? I'm not a meatcutter, but I love hearing about the business. I love meat. Around me most stores sell beef ribs for around $5/lb, some as high as $8. One store always has a bunch, and usually asks $2/lb, and often has some marked down to 99¢. I have recently di...

Hi All Hope everyone here is in their best health. My meat bandsaw is requiring to change bearings in the upper pulley wheel. Attached is a photo of the assembly. It is a little tricky because the shaft P3238 holding the 2 bearings is locking them by itself with a C clip ring in its end. So I cannot pull ou...

Ok so I hear people claim that if you slice salt meat pack it and block it from the light by turning it upside down it won't turn dark or not as quick. Anyone experienced any truth to this? Cause I haven't.

OK members, lets debate the subject of Ground Sirloin. 1) Are you selling Ground Sirloin? 2) If you are selling it, in what form are you buying it? 3) If you are buying it, do you know what is being used for ground sirloin at the beef packing level? I

I'm a muscular guy with short arms. Range of motion is probably one of my greater weaknesses. The inside of the service case has been neglected for a long while, due poor management prior to my employment. We're talking scrubbing pad and windex level neglect.

We all know that we are living and cutting in an age of boneless sub-primal cuts. As a matter of fact many meat cutters today (no criticism here) would not know how to properly cut a full beef loin on a band saw. Why should they? Everything is just about boneless except for the Short Loin. Well I believe tha...

any tips for wrapping a crown roast . that doesn't look like a 5 year old wrapped it. It's one of my Achilles heel. I can cut a nice one but wrapping it is a challenge.

Hi all my meat cutter friends! I haven't been on here in a while, but I used to be able to download a cutting test right here on the meatcutters club and now I can no longer find it. Did you discontinue it? Thanks, Jeff Q
