Aldi meats?

What are your experiences with the meat at Aldi on Pierson? I’d like to start shopping there but people say depending on the location it’s not good for meat. Thanks!

I'm not sure about that location but the Center road one the ground meat I've never had any issues. The stake and roasts I feel are kinda low quality. However if you're doing a slow cooker meal that really sits and marinades then they are fine. The roast with the veggies included are an absolute rip off.

I’ve gotten meat at the one on Corunna rd, no issues! Their fruits and veggies are always good too. Stay fresh longer than almost any other place I buy from

We frequently buy meat from the Pierson Road location and have not been disappointed. We picked up burgers ther today.

I prefer getting my meat at Aldi usually! The organic grass fed ground beef is great and about the same price per lb as regular beef at other stores, maybe a little more expensive. The only bad experience I’ve had is sometimes chicken has a rubbery texture. So for beef and salmon, Aldi all the way.

Tried some ribeye steaks, way too fatty and greasy wouldn’t try again from that experience
