Is ButcherBox Cheaper Than Whole Foods?
Вставка

- In this video, I am going to compare Butcher Box and Whole Foods to see which place is cheaper to buy meat. I purchased a Butcher Box and then bought all the same cuts of meat from Whole Foods. Whole Foods and Butcher Box have free range chicken, grass fed beef and humanely raised pork. Stay to the end of the video to see which one was cheaper.

Yes, on a flat iron video! I love those steaks but I am always unsure how best to cook.
With regard to the comparison - I was a happy Butcher Box subscriber for a few years. And then I started having issues - the delivery would be delayed at the last minute or there were weird discrepancies in the cuts of the same meat. But the worst was several months of receiving product that had the packaging compromised. You couldn't tell when you first opened because the meat was frozen. But pull a sealed package out to thaw? And blood/fluid leaking everywhere. When I reached out to customer service, they offered no explanation or recompense. After several shipments with damaged packaging, I cancelled my subscription. I'm happy to learn that Whole Foods can compare with better prices. Thank you!
Also ran into issues with packaging being compromised. One pack had practically leaked out and glued itself inside the box. Also started having problems with the meat arriving brown. Just wasn't worth the effort and lost money... The cost per package goes up quick with each package that arrives ready for the trash. Also cancelled the subscription
The 46 dollars was for the "free" bacon that you didnt get at whole foods... lol good stuff. Love these videos.
I appreciate your honest take on everyday grocery decisions! Thanks for another great video
Love your channel, humor and positive attitude! Very helpful content, keep it coming and thank you 🙏🏻
I really love your content! This is a great product comparison. Quality, price, and convenience all matter.
I don't know much about the flat iron steak so a video on it would be great. Thanks for your content. I love your videos!
I'd love to see the same comparison using Costco or Sams. Great content, happy to be a subscriber!
Do Costco or Sam's even have grass fed meat like that?
Just ordered my first custom box. $170 delivered to my door. I did the math in my area, and it was ever so slightly cheaper to go Butcherbox. Plus the convenience for me is a lifesaver.
Looking forward to getting it delivered.
Great comparison! Thank you for doing it. I would enjoy seeing your take on cooking flat iron steaks.
WOW!! Super insightful! Thank you so much! Carnivore here! Always checking best meat prices!
Wow! Great video...thanks (now I'm hungry!) ... I didn't expect Whole Foods would be that much less... Maybe a little, but the numbers were impressive, for sure. Thanks for the great comparison.
You’re going to gain so many subscribers because of excellent content such as this. I just subscribed
That was a great comparison and the price difference was important to note . Plus going to the store you can buy the sales they have that week. Thanks!!❤🎉
This was an awesome flipping review! I think I'll be canceling my BB subscription. It should alsob be noted that everything comes frozen so you can season anything before you freeze it which is a huge bummer for those of us who like to meal prep. And yes I would love a flat iron steak video!
Great information! Thank you!
That was a really cool comparison video. Thanks Wizard!
When I made the video I didn’t expect that Whole Foods would be cheaper. Thanks for watching
Awesome thanks I was assuming it was not a farm but someone buying from farms. Great video.
I tried to cook my flat iron steak once... I set my cast iron on fire lol. Love your stuff; cant' wait for your vid on it! I just need to get better at it.
Bro watch your back after this review 😂 just saved me some money! TY
Thanks! You saved me a ton of money and you gained a subscriber! 🎉
Awesome video! Yes to the flat iron video and more videos like this!
Thanks for the review man
Yes do a video for flat iron steak and what's the best ways to cook it. I personally never cooked one before. I'll give it a try if you guide the way. Thanks
Looking forward to your video on flat iron steaks. They are one of my favorites.
Yes! I wanna see you work your magic on flat-irons!
Thanks for the video. Could you compare Walmart and other stores?
Heck, yeah, on the Flat Iron, You're inspiring me to get my first Chuck Roll I have always been shy about doing home buctchery... Is that a word lol!!!
What weird timing, I was just looking up costs and said screw that then clicked on my subscriptions, and you just posted a video on exactly what I was looking up. Crazy timing!
Great video! I was thinking of doing butcher box, thank u for helping me out.
Flat Iron steak is my favorite cut. I find it very flavorful and would definitely like seeing it showcased in a video.
I appreciate a video where you honestly compare the two without being sponsored. Also give us the flat iron video!
appreciate this info, thanks! Fortunately, I have a WF fairly near me. My problem with subscription services is, and as has been mentioned, the sicknesses and quality of the cuts. Also, grass fed isn’t great all the time, I prefer fed grain finished or combination there of. it usually turns out that most of the subscription packages are disappointing, who wants a ribeye that’s not even an inch thick? WF for me, I also have a local butcher that I support. Keep up the great work!
Well done comparison and yes to the flat iron steak video.
Good to know!!! I kinda figured already though, but nice to know at least the quality and taste was so similar.
Yes do a video on flat iron steaks. I’ve also always wondered what’s the difference between that and a flank steak
Yes would love to learn more about Flat Iron Steaks!
Show us how to find the flat iron and the Terrus Major out of a chuck roll. Keep up the great videos.
Yes on the flat iron steak video that would be great thank you!
Love your channel bro
Thanks for the information, i'm tired of seeing this brown meat at the local groceries and wanted to know if butcher box was better than or = to Whole foods... thanks for making the vid for us!
Great comparison. I was always curious about price now I know.
Yes, would love a. Ideo on flatiron steak!
Please give us a vid on the flat irons.
You can get Whole Foods delivered IF (really big IF) you live near one of their stores. I do not live close enough.
Saved me sir! Also I need that flat iron steak video
I love the intro. 😂❤
On the grass fed beef, does it mean their whole life or are the grain finished for a higher weight yield?
I'd like to see you compare the chicken and salmon... thinking of cancelling just because of budget... Only once have I had a compromise package and they replaced both not just one. I was not impressed with their steak tips and I was super not impressed with the lobster
Please do a flat iron video!! I’d love that!
Thanks for a great video. I didn't know Whole Foods had the same quality meatss as ButcherBox. I'll start shopping there. There is one close by.
Please Teach us how to make a flat iron steak on a pan for prefecttion.
Please do a flat iron steak video. I have found a place to get a chuck roll.
Here's my vote for a flat iron steak video. Thanks!
That was great! thank you for the video.
I'm a long time butcherbox user. I picked them up early when I was going keto and been using them since. I appreciate the quality and taste of the food. There is one negative though, and I'm not sure if whole foods does the same thing. It's the amount of blood still left in the meat. outside of butcherbox, the only other place I got my meat from was a local butcher who bought all his meat from local farmers. and they have a longer hang time for their meat and it shows.
When I cook butcherbox meat, I tend to have to either let it sit overnight in the fridge with some paper towels to absorb, or marinate the meat. if I cook it right away, I get a ton of the gross "grey" residue that I have to scrape off.
some people call "juice" but it's not. It's leftover blood from not hanging long enough to drain appropriately. some folks don't care, but it really bugs me, and to me it shows the extra steps of quality a butcher will go to for their meat. BB may struggle with that due to volume, I'm not sure. But if I could get a source of grass fed/finished meat that didn't have that leftover blood it in, I would switch in a second. Sorry BB.
WOW! Great video, yes flat iron steak video next please.
I would definitely love to see more about flat iron steaks!
You're doing God's work sir. I salute you!
I get the monthly $306 custom box with 12 total items.
4 ribeyes (8 x 10oz steaks)
3 NY strip (6 x 10oz steaks)
2 chuck roast (2 x 2.25oz)
2 flat iron ( 8 6oz steaks)
1 thick cut NY (1 18oz steak)
Any chance you could do a comparison like this?
I would like to see a video on flat iron steak. Ty
Whole Foods meat isn’t always grass finished though..
Great video, one thing to note is that it her blocks meat primarily comes from Australia which has some pretty high standards for raising meat. Whole Foods sources their meat from multiple places, some of it is from Tyson. Just me I’ll pay some more to k ow where my food is coming from especially with how the USDA labels meat now.
Would love video on Flat Iron Steaks
Awesome video, please video how to butcher a flat iron steak.
This really surprised me as I love both places. I always felt BB was cheaper because I've bought the grass fed meat from WF but seemed like it was always a pretty high grocery bill. I may have to do my own comparison
Whole Foods varies from state to state. Butcher box is always the same. So, I'm sure in states like California the Butcher Box may be a better bargain.
@@zachpayne7388 Do you know if WF on Amazon differs by state? I hate to give Bezos more money, but that would be my only WF option out here in the boonies.
Wrong. I live in Los Angeles California and I just did this comparison myself. Added everything together and my bill at Whole Foods came out to $126. Surprisingly, Whole Foods is still cheaper.
@@LiquidKnockOutyou say that like everyone in America shops at the same Whole Foods
I love flat iron steaks and we used to enjoy them all the time. Then, I guess social media blew it up and now it's cheaper to buy ribeyes in my area. Flat iron and flank steaks got to be the big thing around here. Like goldendoodles!
Did the WHole FOod delivery count he cost of amazon prime? Since for instance I'm an hour away from a whole foods. so thats about 20bucks in gas or prime I guess is 15?
not that it offsets at all.
Just curious
Yes please for the flatiron steak!
Great channel.
Yes to the flat iron steaks video!
Yes, please. Flat iron steak tutorial.
Thanks for the comparison. I only eat meat and this was good information. Yes, let’s see some flat iron steaks. I’ve watched all your videos!
Carnivore diet?
That was great!
I definitely want to see the flat iron steak video!
I love flat iron steak, I'd enjoy videos on this cut of meat.
Even if you have Amazon Prime you did not say there is a $9.95 delivery charge. Well at least where I am in CT. My Box is $169
I truly appreciate the upfront, quality, and price comparison between Butcher Box and Whole Foods. I had been searching for a review like this for years. I am very satisfied with Butcher Box. Their customer service is exceptional, and their product is TASTY. Yes, the price is higher, but I can count on their fish and other promotions to replace the second-rate quality that emerges as an issue as age prevails for a healthy diet. Their website is full of recipes, and all in all, on my time, replaces the inspection of the meat and 'slowing down' the grocer at Whole Foods.
Definitely would love a flat iron steak video
I have bought from Good Chop and Omaha Steaks. Omaha is very expensive but the hamburgers were awesome! Good Chop hamburgers were just as good and depends a lot how you cook them and season.
Whole Foods was also local... so depending where you live, it can be good or bad.
How much for the Amazon delivery fee though?
Please do flatiron steak segment.
Hit us with a flat iron steak video! Show us how to get it from a chuck roll too.
Let's get started!
Do a flatiron video. I love flatiron.
Do the flatiron video
YES! Do the flat iron steaks video.
Love your channel. One thing you failed to mention is BB is grass fed and grass finished. Whole Foods was called out in the past because of not being grass finished, but yet they charge the premium price.
If "grass finishing" causes the prices to be higher then you are being ripped off. Grass finishing is...free. Corn or grain adds to the cost. It's marketing for the most part.
@@m.r.jarrell3725 negative. Grass fed and grass finished means the cow eats grass till it is processed. If it’s not grass finished that’s the marketing part that rips you off. That means the cow starts off eating grass but then switches to grain fed to fatten up before they process it. But they will charge as if it is grass all the way through….I’m eating clean and do not want grains in my diet. That’s just me. And what I choose when possible.
@@oldnavy5322 I said exactly that. Grass finished is just a cow that eats grass up to the moment of slaughter. And, if you are paying more for "grass finished" than for "grain finished" you are being ripped off by marketing. There were no extra costs incurred, unlike with grain fed.
Grass finished still allows for 10% of their feed to be grain... so even when they say frags finished if you don't know your farmer... you have no clue...also Australia and new Zealand have very different regulations on those terms than us... butcher box isn't as "green' as they have marketed themselves to be
@@jujube2407 Thanks for the reply. I live in Texas and support my local farmer. So I know it’s not. Come to know them well.
I had ButcherBox for several years. I eventually cancelled because the quality seemed to have gone down. I would regularly get very bad cuts. Especially with the flat iron steaks. So much connective tissue most of it was inedible.
I cancelled my butcher box last year because the only way I could see cost value was to load up on ribeye and seafood. The seafood was better at Costco and even the local grocery store had better steaks. The brisket and picahna from them were tiny. Finding your channel and cutting my own (I also got the slicer and .75 grinder from Meat!) Put the nail in the coffin, no matter how many freebies or BOGO they had. Thank you
This is a fantastic video. I never thought the price difference would be that much. I used to be a butcher box customer. I thought it was a decent value but I guess not.
No you were right. BB is far better quality. Read the comments above.
@@JAspen-xe9nv I said it was better value. I didn't say Costco was better quality
What makes Butcher Box cost effective are the member deals that they have every month. The box itself isn't a great deal but all the big sales you can add onto your box make it so much affordable. Just get the custom small box and then add onto it with all the big sales they have. Plus they notify with sales so you never miss them. I added 10 thick cut 18oz new york steaks at $20 a pound. Cant beat that when it comes to 100% grass fed.
Hdoing?! Yes, a flat iron steak vid would be amazing! Have a great day good sir!
Saved me$50. Thank you brother
That Amazon delivery only works in certain areas. I am not able to get delivery from Whole Foods 45 minutes away.
I do Butcher Box and I bought 8 riibeyes, they were the toughest steaks Ive ever had. I have to take my metal knife puncher over and over and over to make them tender enough to chew. So after watching this video I ordered 2 Flat iron steaks...we will see. Ill let you know. Thanks for sharing!
I ditched the BB as 'they' say what I can get in my box....um how bout I say what goes in my box LOL...No thanks, if I can't choose what goes in my box then no deal. WF doesn't tell me what I can and can't buy 🤣
Of course you can. I always pick out -- and sometimes change -- what I get in my box. Some folks, esp. with big families just cook up whatever is sent. I ONLY get the cuts and meats I want.
So I went to cancel mine a month ago and they lower the price to $119 but if I knew this was a thing….thanks for being straight here
Plus, what about the freezer pack waste with shipping? Ugh…
I'm a long time customer of BB, never been to WF because it's too far. Not a Prime member because i don't use Amazon enough to pay the membership fee and come out ahead. Also, if you must drive to the store you need to figure in that cost and the time you spend shopping there. I don't see any savings worth my time with WF. I find the BB meats to be delicious and they constantly have great deals as well as add ons for their customers. BB wins for me, delivered to my door, can't be beat. 💕💕💕
Are you an A.I butcherbox person?
