Devasted...........

Started by: basil brush (20048)

I went into a Wetherspoons, and they have stopped doing steaks and mixed grills. I had many good steaks from them.

Well, it's back to the Spam.

Nothing wrong with a bit of spam now and again BB.
Why have Wetherspoons decide to stop serving steak and mixed grills. At a guess I'd say that it's beyond most peoples pockets these days.

Don't know FM, asked the waiter and he said he couldn't understand why because they was a good seller, unless the price of steaks have gone up

I paid about £13 for an 8oz steak with trimmings

You can buy a lot of spam for that

i sent Mrs Brush to meat mart yesterday, 2 sirloin steaks just over 8 quid, so how much do these big pub companies get them for?

Surely the price of beef should be an incentive for farmers to grow more cows.

These big pub companies must be making a fortune

Quality of steak nowadays is dire compared to what we used to get! All down to hybrid cattle and decontamination processes. I'd rather do'baaaight!

Tonks, If you're not happy with meat, Don't eat it, find other things like, lettuce, tomato's, eggs ,rice, chips, spaghetti etc , You'll he healthier and the cows will love you,

Tom, I eat very little red meat nowadays. And only a bit of chicken and fish. I do indulge over in Spain, though, because it's good quality over there.
I don't eat pig either, except sausages!
In fact, I eat very little overall, I'm down to just over 16 stone now. I'm wasting away!
