QuoteI know lots people buy meat online and say it's great, but i wouldn't fancy that, i like to see what i'm buying

I'm with you on that LS, poor quality meat ain't never going to be good no matter what you do with it no matter whether it is the most expensive or the cheapest cut!

I agree with you guys on this. I got a gift of Omaha Steaks from a friend a few years back and loved them. Absolutely the best I have ever had. They have a gaurentee that is out of this world. If you ever get meat that you do not like, they will refund your money or send another order free of charge along with an apology. It does not matter why you did not like it and they do not want it returned. On one occassion I received 2 T-bone steaks that I was not pleased with (a little too much fat). I called them and they sent replacements within 3 days. Exceptional customer service.

That sounds excellent Wildcat, seem to remember Olds had a similar experience at Christmas with a rib roast that was not up to expectations.

I like to see what I'm buying when it comes to meat. I have to admit though Omaha has top notch meat. I've ordered from them a few times when I wasn't satisfied with what was offered locally. Very happy with them. :)

First shoulders I did came from Costco in Denver. They were excellent. Two to a package so I had to do them both. :) Had plenty of leftovers which I froze in two cup portions. This back on Super Bowl Sunday. We opened one last night and it was still as tasty.

This Costco sounds great. :) I do not recall seeing one in our area. :(

Costco also does case price breaks for you if you're inclined to buy that much. I usually go in with friends and do it once a year. :)
