Best Costco find?

[Els]

This company is based in the Hudson Valley nearby where we used to live. Great company, amazing restaurant and facilities located on their grounds. We would go often when I managed to pull a weekend off.

They make great maple syrup!! Hope Costco keep their supply up.

Was just going to say - let's not overlook the Costco's that carry Spirits - unfortunately not enough of them do, due to varying state laws. Their Kirkland brand vodka is fantastic - both the French and American and their Tequilla is hard to beat for the price.

Yes. Their vodka is great and can’t beat the price

Around the holidays, you can find a whole Iberico ham with a stand. Super fun to have it out on the table, and guests can slice off pieces whenever they walk by.

It's a bit frustrating because a lot of the specialty items Costco carries tend to be regional. Since I am in Arkansas, the food palates here are a bit denuded, so I can't get my hands on whole lamb like you can in other parts of the country.

I use to own a Charcuterie business, and would frequent Costco A LOT. They have a great selection of cheese and meat. Their fruit prices are outstanding and I personally think are pretty great quality. My kids will devour a container or strawberries/raspberries/blueberries in one sitting...so the bulk buy is our way of life. They also have cotton candy grapes/gum drop grapes fairly often, and those things are like crack. The praline pecans were a customer favorite, as well as the dark chocolate covered caramel with sea salt. Around Christmas they have cocoa truffles and those are to die for.Well

Well this is super cool!!

Kind of always wanted to try one of those. How long do they last, I am always hesitant eating anything that just sits out like that. I remember a few times when Costco had little pigs that I could have fit on my smoker. Never tried it but I should have.

Costco is the worse for having something that you end up really liking and then getting rid of them to never have them again. It is my biggest grip with them. They had some dark chocolate cover pomegranates that are so good, but they haven't had them for months.

It's a cured product so it pretty much lasts forever.

I mean you can now buy an Ineos Grenadier at Costco for $82,450. Kinda seems to trump any other Costco best find...

Fairlife protein drinks for grab-and-go. I saw a whole halal lamb in there there the other day. They also sometimes have some good Casio G-shocks depending on the location.

The Michigan cherry and jalapeño cream cheese dip is a must grab when they have it. Sounds like a weird combo, but it’s amazing.

Last year I went into our local store to grab a couple pork shoulders. One to smoke, one to add to a batch of summer sausage I was making from the last of our deer trim. Sitting right next to the pork was a 22 pound whole ribeye, marked at the same $1.99/pound as the pork shoulder. $2 steaks never tasted so good!

 

[Chitty (ChittyBangBang)]

If you prep your own meat, the whole tenderloins or ribeyes are an amazing deal and delicious.
Their rotisserie chicken is actually a loss leader for them and are damn tasty as well.
And don't gieve me too much sh*t for this, but their flowers are an incredible price and quality, and they really help when you go in for a pair of socks and come out with 140 lbs of beef, a generator, 35 lbs of batteries, and a backyard playset and pergola to be delivered by 4 tractor trailers...

Man, I get flowers for my mom and Costco has the deals.

I've heard they mis label their meats all the time, so if you have the time to look you can probably score a deal like you did!

I get a case of the Fair-Life every time I go!

Two things I love at Costco... Stonemill Jalapeno, Artichoke and Parmesan dip, and their Prime rib or Ribeye roast. They're staples for any party I host!
The Stonemill Parmesan, artichoke and jalapeno dip stuffed in white mushrooms is always a crowd pleaser, as is the whole Prime rib or rib eye roast dry rubbed and slow cooked over lump charcoal on my KUDU rotisserie...
The only thing that the attendees love better is Shifty's French bread loaf with my special Red Wings dipping blend... Mmm good! The guys usually gobble it up! Talk about a pallet orgasm!

This seems interesting. Going to give it a try tonight (not all of it at once though).

That looks awesome, but no need to limit yourself. Best to make it a 1-night world tour...
