What protein do you eat the most?

Beef is best.

Chicken - mostly just because it is the most versatile, recipe wise.

Beef and fish probably tied for the 2nd spot.

Pretty even between pork and chicken at the moment.

Actually eating more fish products than beef right now too. Shrimp, catfish, trout are cheaper than beef.

Plus, chicken is more expensive than beef lately

You need to change your market if chicken costs more than beef.

I can get leg quarters from Rouses for $.59 a lb., they put split breasts on sale for $.99 a lb. and whole fryers are $.97 a lb.

You're not getting ANYTHING beef related anywhere near that cost.

I am sick of chicken so I try to limit my intake, I still enjoy a thick grilled pork chop, so pork is 1st. Beef doesn't agree with my wife, so some nights I'll grill a breast for her and a NY strip for me right out of the sous vide onto the grill.

Ounce for ounce, shrimp are a bargain, I like a kung pao stir fry with them.

By frequency? Salmon
By weight? Chicken

I eat a can of wild-caught Pacific Salmon 4 days a week, but it's only 6 ounces at a time. Most weeks I eat a little more chicken than that, mainly because the wife doesn't eat beef.

Yeah, I get chicken and ground beef on Tuesday when it's $2.99 and $3.99 at Fresh Market. They also sell leg quarters in a package of 2 for ~$1.50 so I get that from time to time.

When we want steaks, we are not heavy eaters so one steak between the two of us is plenty. I don't buy a lot of roasts or things like that.

Salmon is in the regular rotation, since it goes on sale a lot as well and is great in the air fryer. I get raw shrimp from LA Boilers sometimes, but that has decreased lately because I've been too lazy to peel.

As of now, easily chicken. I'd like to move fish into first place - I don't cook it often enough.

Probably pork, but maybe chicken. shite, we eat a lot of beef too. Now I'm not sure
