My analysis of Meat Lover's Box

Meat Lovers Box - $139

4 6 oz. Filet Mignon $20/lb=$30
2 6 oz. Top Sirloin $10/lb=$8
8 5 oz. Steak Burgers $5/lb $12.50
4 4 oz. Chicken Breasts $2/lb=$2.00
2 12 oz. Pork Chops $2/lb=$3.00 (I can get boneless loin for under $2/lb)
8 2 oz. Meatballs $5/lb=$5.00
4 Stuffed Potatoes $2/ea=$8.00
6 Mini Key Lime Pies $2/ea=$12.00

Grand total of $80.50 and I feel as though I was going high with the prices.

I wonder how this compares with Omaha steaks that offer their holiday boxes?

I think Omaha is even more outrageous.

One of the local suppliers here in Erie is doing the same thing on a limited basis. We picked up a couple of 2Lb. vacuum packs of sliced roast beef for $5.00 a Lb. Is very good quality and made some yummy roast beast sangwiches

First thing I thought when I looked at the photo.

Definitely not the prices they are selling to restaurants for.

Yep. Definitely high on your estimates, especially the first two meats.
