Anyone order the steaks?

KG60 — Mon, 25 Mar 2024 02:14:03 GMT

Just curious how many shoppers ordered the two Geoffrey Zakarian steaks for 199.99?

The Host said they were "Flying" out the door, which I find sort of hard to believe. Of course, there must be a market for those items, but wow!

About the only thing more expensive than beef classified as USDA Prime would be Kobe or Waygu beef.

All of the above are beyond my budget.

I could not order them for my family because that is too rich for my wallet, but like anything, I would not hesitate to buy them if they are a top quality product and I had the coins.😁 Prime steaks are expensive👍, and yes steaks can be bought locally at a more affordable price, but those markets do not have the overhead QVC does.😊

They probably were selling fast since he has dedicated shoppers who swear by his products, but I do not think the inventory was high at that price.🥰

For me personally, if I'm going to pay that much for food, I would like it cooked and served to me and someone else doing the dishes. 👩‍🍳🍖🍽

I don't eat much beef these days, so I did not buy them. I am still feeling guilty about the recent TSV chicken fried chicken. I hope they will live up to the hype at $99 when they arrive.

@KG60

I agree, that's outrageous for 2 New York Strip Steaks!

We raise our own cattle, know what they eat because we feed them and have one processed every year at a cost by the pound, but would come out to way less. That's just crazy for 2 regular steaks!

I could go to the Mennonites and get all kinds of steaks for $200.

I didn't see that but sounds like that guy--am not a fan at all--kind of a pompous a$$, IMO---I bought a few waygu steaks from a local cattle rancher --- maybe 2 of them cost me $50 for all and they were at least 1 lb each---I split them between DD and I for a dinner. Also got waygu ground beef for $13 a lb as well---they were tasty but I don't make it a habit---was for a special meal I think.

Do they come with someone that will cook and serve them for you?

No way would I pay $242 for 2 Prime NY Strip steaks. I don't think anyone wants to eat an 18 oz steak to begin with?

Aldi's just had Choice Prime Rib for $8.99 per lb.

Since they said beef would be at it's highest prices this year DH bought 2 of the Prime Ribs.

He cut 15 ribeye steaks out of them. We now have steaks for summer. I know we cannot buy them at about $8.50 per steak?

We don't generally eat the whole steak so we can both get 2 meals when we eat them.

We have bought Prime beef before. While it is good it's not worth that price IMO.

You can buy 1/4 beef for $800. Of course if you buy half or whole it's less money.

The steaks I buy from IGA fit my budget much better, and taste just fine. If I spend $200 in the grocery store, I better be pushing a cart with multiple bags to my car!

@charsha - I think/hope you will be very pleased with the Heartland Fresh chicken! We've purchased it multiple times since it first came to QVC, and we've even had it on auto-delivery at times because we really enjoy it. There are all kinds of ways to prepare it and the quality is great. The pricetag is a bit high, but we have felt it was worthwhile for us. We've never found a similar product elsewhere that was truly comparable in taste and quality, so if you're like us and want this style of chicken without the hassle of preparing it, you should be all set. Definitely let everyone know what you think after you try it...

That is the PERFECT description of GZ. Can't stand him.
