I got 3 options for getting cheap/free meat in the near future.

1. Catch and cook iguanas which are all around us in South Florida.

2. Catch and cook invasive Muscovy ducks which are also all around us down here.

3. Go crabbing.

My problem with option #1 is I have a mental repulsion to Iguanas and don't know if I can overcome it.

My problem with option #2 is I have been feeding the ducks in the lake out back and sort of look upon them as pets and I have trouble eating an animal I considered sort of a pet.

The best solution appears to be option #3 since I have done crabbing before and am now considering going back to it. Just tie a lite to a chicken leg, toss in the water, when crab tugs just gently pull in the line until you bag the crab with a pole net.

A Kroger’s regional manager told me a few weeks ago that a sale like that was a loss leader for them and their cost was closer to $10/lb.

Do people eat or not eat burgers over the weekend for a 50 or 75 cent increase?

Put the chicken in one of those big crab catch cages.

Hmmm…I’m going to a burgers and dogs cookout tomorrow. The hosts are providing the burgers and hot dogs and we guests are bringing sides and frosty adult beverages.

“Real grillers” are going to be in hog heaven later this summer. When the 20,000 head feed lot in Colorado finds out they can’t get feed or it cost double last year’s they will liquidate everything. Feast, then famine, all in a couple of months. Who could have believed this in America?

Best rotisserie chicken out there. I make a Costco run every 3 months or so. Never pass them up.

Pizza here as well.

We have cut buying any high priced meats. Can’t afford it on SS.

It’s 80 something here. Roadkill on black asphalt comes precooked.

Bonus?

The local butcher shop had wings on sale this week for $2.99lb. I loaded up and after four wing-meals in a row I’m sick of them for a while.
