Door-to-Door Steaks from Steak House Brand - Temptation Won Out - BIGGEST Mistake EVER! (Learn From My Mistake!)

Ok - for the past few years, we've had a truck come through selling frozen steak combos... and I've always been tempted by the deal and the fact that I'd have a great selection of steaks in the freezer to thaw and cook/grill any time.

So when they gave me a great deal, temptation won out!  I'm talking a GREAT deal, and the frozen steaks looked pretty darn good - small, but good.

Boy am I disappointed that temptation won.  This was one of my biggest mistakes EVER!  I don't consider myself a steak snob, but we bbq steak, chicken, fish, etc quite often (almost every night).  I LOVE my local Safeway Rancher's Reserve steaks (only had 2 that we've ever not liked - in YEARS).  So the first time I thawed these steaks, I thought, ok - a bad batch, so I tried a different steak from the package I bought... same thing.  Yuck!

OK - here are some of the packages (beef, I didn't copy the chicken, pork or seafood):


I bought the "USDA Choice PREMIUM" package, and there was nothing Choice or Premium about it.  The steaks were watery (gel-like), and flavorless, and the texture was... indescribable.  My husband ate one bite and told me to toss it in the garbage - we don't throw steaks into the garbage... Same thing happened the second time I cooked the steaks - so I gave up.

I tried the 1/2 lb. Steak Burgers, thinking to myself "it's REALLY hard to mess up a burger - right?"  Well, I was wrong again!  Seriously, the burgers made it to the grill, where they promptly lost about 1/2 their size... when we went to eat them, they were mushy and tasted like cardboard.

So, I gave up.  Tossed them ALL and will NEVER again try these steaks from www.meatydelivery.com - WORST MISTAKE EVER!!!!

The only small glimmer on the horizon is that I didn't pay even 1/2 what the "Six Pack Special" price shows.  
Please learn from my mistake and avoid at all costs!

I honestly don't know where they got all the good reviews showing on the site - these were the worst pieces of "beef" I've ever experienced!

*Disclosure: Nothing to disclose here other than my utter disappointment in myself for this one.  I bought them myself.
