Name: Toni Denver Metro (Zone 5a) Whiskey Tango Foxtrot.
Was just in south Texas last week (San Antonio / Corpus Christi). I can definitely see why growing & harvesting a cow would be a LOT better than purchasing meat at the store. I didn't go into a HEB store, but the Walmart & Center Market I went into.. yikes! I thought beef was expensive here in Colorado, but it's literally twice as expensive there! Holy cow! Literally! Bought a standing rib roast for Christmas dinner and that was $19.99/lb!! And only reason why I got that one was because the cheaper cuts of meat for rib eyes had almost no marbling at all, but you could definitely see the gristle in it!! And that was $14.99/lb! So the slightly-less-than-3 pounds of roast (which was sliced into steaks) ran $60!!
