Boston Butts at Rouses on sale
Posted on 4/10/24 at 7:44 am

I get the weekly ad sent to my e-mail and I see that Boston Butts in the twin pack are going on sale for $.88 a lb. and that is a hell of a deal considering what meat prices are now.
I with I had freezer space for a couple but my freezer is full right now and they do take up a bit of room.
The sale lasts starting today until next Tuesday night.

I've never run into that issue at their Mid-City location on Carrollton Ave. or their store on Vets between Bonnabel and Causeway.

Do you know if they are the cryovaced?

I've never bought than any other way when on sale in the 2 pack. I will always break them up and vacuum seal them individually if I don't use them for sausage or for smoking right away.

They will give you a rain check if they are out. Had the issue a couple of weeks ago with pork chops, and no issues using the rain check the next week.

I'll stock up on a few packs and individually vac seal them. I've been waiting for this sale again.
FYI if you have a regular vac sealer, you can buy pleated bags that will open big enough and seal fine using a standard foodsaver.

Got me two 2 packs at the one on Vets and Causeway. Not being happy with what I’m finding in Italian sausage lately I may pick up a couple of more to make my own Italian sausage.

Grabbed 2 twin packs yesterday. Left one pack as is, and have the butcher cut the other into pork steaks. I think it came out to less than a dollar a steak,

It just wasn’t as good as it used to be. Could barely tell it was Italian.

Bone in? Or boneless?
They are always bone in when on sale like that. By the time you trim off some of the heavy fat cap and debone it, you'll probably lose about 2 lbs. off the butt.

That's exactly why I make my own sausage now. I do Italian, Boudin, Andouille, Hot and Green Onion.
Italian and hot sausage are the ones I find very inconsistent and there are not many places in N.O. to buy a good boudin. Then head to Laplace and you'll find Andouille is right at $10 a lb. now at Baileys and probably the same at Jacob's.

I was in Rouses on Carrollton Ave. in Mid-City, New Orleans and they had plenty in the meat cases.

I like to either smoke them or grill them. They come out good both ways in my opinion.
One of my aunts would season them and brown the off a bit to get some sear on the outside and then finish them off in either a brown gravy or red sauce.
If in brown gravy she'd either have rice or mashed potatoes and if in red sauce it was had with pasta.
