How To: Chopping a Pork Loin into 10 Meals
I went to Sam’s Club yesterday and got an almost 20 pound Pork Loin. At only $1.98 per pound, this was a STEAL! I came home and stuck it in the freezer for an hour, then got busy chopping it. I took the fattest section and cut off enough for 2 Pork Roasts. Then, started chopping the rest into Pork Chops. When I got to the end, I didn’t really have enough for more chops, so I started slicing and dicing to make a type of stew meat.
All in all, I ended up with:
- 1 Bag of stew meat = 1 meal
- 2 Roasts = 2 meals
- 22 Pork Chops = 7 meals (3 chops per bag with 1 bag holding 4. When I cook, I cut each chop into thirds so we have 9 pieces of meat for the 5 of us.)
I am sorry, if I had thought about it, I would have made a video so y’all could see exactly what I was doing. Maybe next time?
So, the Pork loin cost me $19.04 and I will get 10 meals out of it.
Grand total for meat, per meal = $1.90!
