Maratha Stewart Rib Roast

OK, $200 for a Prime Rib Roast, I can't go there. I know Prime Rib is expensive but this is outragous. In the time she has been on air they have not mentioned the price. I am astonished.

Living in the Chicago area we have major access to top of the line beef, any type and any way you want.

The turkey was a bit different as it is hard to find USA free range hormone free tied breasts. Not even going to consider the rib roast.

Well I can afford and do purchase anything I want and in a city where there is access. Those that complain that you are telling them how to spend their money just choose to misinterpret your post on purpose to belittle. Happy Holidays to them. Spend away and encourage the over charge. You are just stating your feelings and free to as long as you don't take a knee.

@hopi I was thinking the exact same thing. I guess it depends on where you live but that price was eyewatering . . .

$200 for a rib roast that’s ridiculous. To order it off o a shopping channel is more ridiculous. Maybe it’s the Martha Stewart name but makes it more tastier and worth $200.

Beetle, don't let rude people dissuade you! Your opinion on the price of an item is just as valid as any other opinion. Don't be sorry for posting, ignore them. I rarely post but enjoy reading the commentary.

Everyone knows when Martha Stewart presents prepared food that it's going to be outrageously expensive so what's the point of watching and getting yourself all worked up? Surely your TV has more than one channel.

If it's not a good value for you, why shouldn't you express your opinion ? I t is as valid as anyone else's. Now they tell you when to watch.

I only caught the tail end of the presentation so I didn't hear who Martha is sourcing the prime rib from but if it is the same as her turkey (Pat LaFreida) that would explain the higher than normal price for prime rib as they are the if not the very top I would say they are in the top three suppliers of high end meat/poultry vendors in the country.

I wonder if Martha is getting those roasts from Lobel's in NYC. They are a five generation, family owned company with an excellent reputation specializing in high-end meats, especially prime rib. I have seen one of the owners featured on several of her cooking shows over the years.

The pricing seems to be in line with their pricing for prime rib roasts as seen here:

I didn't see your post before posting about Lobel's @momtochloe. I didn't know that she used Pat LaFrieda for her turkey.

To each their own. My local supermarket offerings--Harris Teeter, Safeway, etc.--always work out great for me on my tight budget.

@luvmybeetle, well, I certainly agree with you. I saw them selling donuts today for $2.50 a piece and I freaked. So, I definitely think $200 for a roast is outragous!

I totally agree with you. It’s too much money for the average person. Is it because it’s from Martha Steward. Her food is wat overpriced for a shopping channel.

How does gold taste in your mouth and then your stomach? I'd like to really know what it tastes compared to one for about $10. Qvc is now seen as the shopping with most ridiculous food prices.

And can someone tell why all the kissy face bits with vendors? None of other networks give this crazy gesture on a selling program. Kind of crazy is we went into all our local stores and think each clerk was going to kiss us first.
