I was indeed surprised to find really great cuts of beef at WalMart. They are called Chuck-eye Steaks and they were so tender that I went right back for more. The butchers told me that they don't get them in very often and when they do, they're gone very soon afterward. So, Every time that I go there now, I look to see if they have them. And, I live in Texas.... Votes: +8

Response for Mildred:
While I do not live in the south, all of my Mothers sisters still do - and they have found that buying meat from a butcher shop works the best. The hard part, apparently, is finding one. Preferably a small business type, normally found in the small towns.
If they do not exist in your area, marinades really do make a difference.
You might also try buying beef from a local farmer or rancher who raises their own cattle. Large chain stores buy their meat in bulk from large companies - and most of them do not allow for enough "hang time" - which if done properly, naturally tenderizes the meat. Farmers/ranchers know better. Votes: +3

I am really opposed to all the trick and deceptive pricing going on these days esp. the overuse of the double nines in pricing...I really hate to see it displayed so prominently on top ad above: $6.99, 11.99, and 12.99. It sure ain't from Walmart as they abhor the double nines and pretty much stay away from this false pricing. Votes: +1
