Due to the chilly weather, I’ve made my better half some #pea, #lentil & #barley #soup.
She asked me if I was cooking #CornedBeef!!!
I’ll serve her some - here’s hoping it tastes more like soup & less like corned beef.

Just stopped by the HUGE & relatively new #Safeway in Oakley today to pick up a prescription & decided to walk thru this store for the 1st time.
It's no longer St. Patty's day but they were selling pre-packed #CornedBeef for 50% off at $4 instead of $8/pound for both #BottomRound & #FlatBrisket.
Flat brisket is the better & traditional (along with the point) cut to use for corned beef. So, I bought 2 packs of the flat for just $4/# & for a savings of about $24. 😊
In contrast, they had #ChuckRoast ridiculously priced at $13/pound. 🤦♂️
So it pays to look for sales & to avoid outrageously priced meat (along with other things) at Safeway (as well as other stores & supermarkets).
This sale was marked as a "Manager's Special" so it may apply to this store only but if you're in the market for some corned beef it would be worth checking to see if the Safeway in your area is currently pricing it similarly (or would be willing to match this price based on this info).
People in US eat corned beef on St. Patrick's Day to celebrate the Irish holiday. This tradition started because of the availability of beef and the connection between Irish consumers and kosher butchers. Corned beef has become very popular on St. Patrick's Day in the United States.

@rdfranke What's "wrong" with #CornedBeef??? 🤔
I'm not #Irish & I don't "celebrate" #StPatricksDay but I ❤️ corned beef for it's beefy, fatty & easy to cook goodness!!! 😊
I just bought about 8# of the stuff on sale at my local supermarket.
You guessed it, I'm NOT a vegetarian. LOL!!! 😎
Even worse, my family use to own a meat market which is how I learned to love eating meat. 😉

Not that you have to be #Irish but I'm not Irish & I've never "celebrated" #StPatricksDay (not even to bother wearing green) but I'm not one to pass up a bargain & I love me some #CornedBeef & just bought about 8# of the stuff (2 bag limit of nice fatty point cuts) for just $1.99/# on sale at my local #FoodMax today. 😊
There's going to be corned beef & cabbage with horseradish for dinner on St. Patty's Day in the Asian American home tonight. 😎
