    Oh We always buy Dunnes Angus beef mince at €10 per kg so I wonder how this compares taste wise

    thats crazy prices, their Pork chops are only delicious, the four or six pack thick ones, bacon joints also if you pick a lean one.

    Clever marketing. Just a few months after Tesco stopped doing their 3 meats for €9. My guess is that Tesco will drop market share and Aldi will gain. Slowly, but surely.

    Maybe bacon, but the chicken is no deal whatsoever, its the same price elsewhere generally with on/off deals, pork I don't keep track of as I consider it a crap meat but that's just me :)

    Where? For Irish Chicken?

    Aldi pork chops are lovely and so is their bacon, and a great deal at €3

    Agreed. There was a bacon factory in my town many years ago. I often meet former butchers there, all very elderly now, buying their bacon and ham for boiling in Aldi. Those guys know their pig-meat!

    Just last week I met one who was examining the vacuum packed bacon offcuts closely. He didn't find anything he liked that day but said he often gets really good pieces suitable for frying at knock down prices. Those pieces would be more like chops than rashers but I suppose you could slice them thinner.

    The majority of butchers I know of sell large Irish chicken fillets for €1.50 a piece.

    Aldi do some good deals from time to time saying that I got a surprise one day a while back at the deals to be got in the local butchers too and checking both the supermarkets and the butchers out most weeks I find myself getting the majority of my weeks meat in the butchers.

    3 out of the 4 butchers in the town where I reside sell chicken fillets for €1.50 a piece and I do see signs up on the windows of a few butchers in the next town 15 mins over the road advertising them for the same price. Now and again the butcher counter at my local Supervalue regularly have chicken fillets for in or around €1.50-€2.00 each. Great value altogether.

    Started getting my chops and fillets in local butcher in Galway. Chicken fillets and pork chops a euro each. Bigger and tastier too.

    It's one thing Aldi can be beaten on imo

    Aldi's offer seems to be 500g of chicken breast fillets for €4.00. The only way you can compare that price is by weight. I don't know if it's good value or not.

    Compared to other supermarket €8 per kg is a decent deal, some butchers and ethnic stores will beat it though.

    Asian store near me in Artane does chicken Breast for €5.99 per kg.
    Large (250g each approx) breasts.

    Listen, I got a chicken fillet from the butcher here in Gort Co. Galway the other day and I'd say it must have been tipping 500g mark, I got it up my hole to finish it. So it's mighty value. Pork chops as big as car tyres in the same spot for a euro a piece as well. Can't go wrong with that.

    Large (250g each approx) breasts.

    Irish or Thai?

    I think 335g of Irish chicken is good value at €3.00, that's all I'm sayin'
