Today I bought a really nice rump roast that I will slow roast rare on the grill either tomorrow or Memorial Day It has been seasoned with a good rub and a few other spices. I paid $3.59/lb for it.
I also buy these and make my own ground beef. Very lean, and since I ground it, I can have my hamburgers as rare as I would like them! And this $3.59/lb rump roast makes leaner ground beef than the ground beef sold in the stores at upwards to $5.00 or more per pound these days. I use the grinding attachment for our Kitchen Aide stand mixer.
You got a good price on that!
Beef is sky high.
Mmmmm... med rare hamburger...
