One of my favorite coffees comes from up there in that basion of lunacy you call home.....It was called Sarkisian's, but is now called Peerless.....It was a lil' roasting company.....My stepdad would travel up there on business once amonth, and always brought some home.....I first tried it when I was about 10 years old, and that's when I started liking coffee......I've found it occasionally down here lately under the Peerless brand in some stores.....It's a hit and miss thing....Looks like they're going regional.Yep....and you can't beat their meat.
No matter which cuts, if you take the time and dig through the choice grade section, you can almost always find packages that are as close to prime grade as you can get.....I've actually found prime grade several times, marked at choice price.
And of course, those 5 buck whole rottiserie chickens are always good, and perfect for when you're looking for something to grab and go.
You also can't beat their coffee prices.....12 bucks a pop for a two pound bag of whole bean Starbucks, Newhall Roasting Co, or Peet's just can't be beat.
yep, i love costco meats.
however.... beef is still not cheap. The rib roast and veal were 12.99 a pound. New Yorks are still 12-13 per portion.
Now you will laugh... i made schmaltz... you know stuff that is made out of what is considered scrap.... and the butcher charged me 3.99 a pound. ... But it did make a lovely golden elixir!
I dont get their coffee...i order mine from a small specialty roaster.
yep, peerless is another old SF coffee company..... but mine goes back farther then that.....
Funny thing is, they survived the first earthquake in '06... but the did not survive the next big one... The city condemned the buildings and they had to move to south city. One the things i really like about them is that they will blend anything you want to specks. Now its mail order only.
