    The angus steak mince is seriously nice stuff, very noticeably better taste, stocked up the freezer yesterday!

    Have a weather station?, why not join the Ireland Weather Network - http://irelandweather.eu/

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


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,395 ✭✭✭danjo-xx


    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.

    is this a new thing? meat on the super 6 I mean?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,553 ✭✭✭lmimmfn


    The mince looks like great value, the diced beaf looks good, the rest looks meh price wise.

    Ignoring idiots who comment "far right" because they don't even know what it means

    Well not really, the chicken, bacon and chops are great deal and were really nice.

    Chauffe, Marcel, chauffe!


    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.

    Irish or Thai?

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

    I find it hard to believe that small butchers in towns and villages are able to source cheaper Irish chicken and pork than a large multi national supermarket chain

    Just thought I'd say it, especially as I read it somewhere else too, that the best before date on the €3 diced chicken is 'already too late' date. It might well be ok if you use it fresh from the store, days before its expiry date. But in my case, I cooked it on the expiry date in an effort to save it for cold salad etc the next day. Big mistake. It smelt out my fridge before I opened it so it smelt bad while cooking too. I had a spicy sauce that covered up anything offensive. But I ended up dumping it after cooking it. Bargain or no bargain, Delhi belly/salmonella poisoning would not be worth it. I know all about food safety, but it's a bit unusual to have this kind of scare from meat I've stored properly after buying.

    Lidl have a great lump of leg of lamb for €11.99 a kilo too. Little bit of work involved but it's great meat. I got one for €13 last weekend.
    Sliced it into cubes and made 12 very generous lamb kebabs (marinated meat overnight)

    Im not disputing this fact but how do butchers do that. Considering all the buying power that Aldi have, how can butchers do better deals than them. Aldi are a bit of a rip off when it comes to chicken breasts
