I’ve been getting my Choice and Prime grades of meat at Walmart for a few years. I was amazed, thinking at first that it’s gonna be crap since...well...it’s Walmart. Wrong indeed. Glad you discovered this new source for your steaks. Great video, fine job.
The black packaged choice steaks at walmart are a go for me. They have never disappointed. I peppercorn crust mine all the time and it always turns out fantastic.
My Walmart in Iowa used to have this and I would get it once a month. Sometimes I still see it but I never want to put in the effort to making it right. I do think it's high quality and I recommend it. I'm glad somebody finally made a video about it.
Cool vid man! One thing I would recommend is shorting your titles and your vids down a bit, to give it more of a chance of appearing on someones TH-cam homepage/search.
Walmart is wonderful for steaks. The key is to pick through them all and look them over. I've grabbed quite a few prime steaks the last couple years at choice pricing.
That tomahawk looks great! Marbling is on point! You got a great deal! Probably not a lot of those chances of you getting that steak like that again. But if you do, get some!
161,000 views and no one wants to subscribe 😔I've never even watched videos like this before on youtube and this is a quality video and very entertaining. Mark my words but one day you'll blow up and you just got another subscriber towards that goal keep up the hard work man!
Bixby Approved again!! I've only see one other channel cook a tomahawk from Walmart and they agreed!! I'm definitely not a fan of that store but I may stop by and see what they have now!! Great video Bud!!
You answered my question. Looks really good. I saw one for $12.47 a pound and it was $2.88 lbs about $35. Like u said the marble was good in this steak. Will try it soon.
I'll bet that was a Usda Prime steak from their samsclub distributor. Some times when they have to get rid of meat. Stores will sell higher grade, in the lower grade package to move it. I know one time from a shoprite store I got prime, because it had abundant marbling like yours did. Great job on the cook as well.
@@ToFreshAdrian it is illegal to charge someone for prime and give them choice or select. It is not illegal to give someone a higher quality. I suggest you speak to local butcher who will confirm that when they need to move beef sometimes u will get deals like this.
Walmart does have some good meat deals from time to time, I always look when we're in there. We've done the Tomahawks a few times with excellent results, also Briskets, Tri-Tip, Baby Back Ribs, Lamb, etc. Yummy!!
@@googanbbq the ground wagyu didn't cost much more than regular chuck if I recall, but you could really tell the difference. One of those wagyu burgers sits heeeeavy in the stomach haha tastes amazing. Definitely had their wagyu strip steaks a couple times, and possibly found a ribeye there too. Strips were about twenty a pound and felt like a great deal having spent 50 at a butcher for about the same marbling level. Still surprised to have found that at Walmart.
BRO! You hit the jackpot on that beautiful steak. Awesome cook with a perfect finished product. I may be heading over to Wally world soon! Thanks for sharing
I used to work at a truck shop in Milwaukee. We`d see the cattle on trailers coming in to the slaughter house. Then we could see the trucks taking the sides of beef to the packing house in Butler later that night.
I get these when the price is right, they are a good when doing the reverse sear, I get the inernal temp to about 135ish then put the flame to it, but all in all, I like these steaks.
There was a Walmart that I lived near in Wichita Falls, TX that had a legit good butcher and decent meat almost all the time, so much so that it was worth shopping there over local butchers because it was cheaper and solid product.
The only reason it wasn't brown by mourning was the salt you put on it. Most times meat from wal-mart goes bad instantly .Gotta cook or freeze as soon as you get home.
I almost never go to Walmart, I do whatever I can to avoid it really, but I would pop in for some $20 tomahawks that look like that! Nice job on the cook!
Thanks! Yeah, I’m not a fan of Walmart but I’ve heard they are starting to carry quality meat at a better price so I’ll keep my eye out and keep buying their meat if it looks like that.
I buy these tomahawk steaks all the time from Walmart. They always have them stocked here in the Atlanta area. They’re great values. You can usually pick them up between $25 and $30
Thanks for the tip brother. I would not know that you can get a tomahawk steak from Walmart. I have purchased their grass fed ground beef 80/20 for $5 and it’s superb.
We can't keep enough of them at my Walmart, I wanna get a couple of them for me an the guys to cook at camp in November, it'll be a treat for them to try.
I tell people often that when it comes to meat, it's the one thing Wal-Mart does right. It doesn't make sense, but it's affordable choice meat that is actually good. I prefer Wal-Mart meat over Kroger stores or Albertsons.
Looks like a Holstein by the muscle to bone ratio. Holstein typically have smaller muscles and larger bones due to their breading for dairy and carrying the utter weight. Holstein is slowly becoming a very desirable beef cow
I have bought one a couple. You're paying for the extra bone. It is a push on price as they are a little cheaper versus the regular bone in ribeye. Other than that, if you have a dog and want to give them the bone, no real difference.
Good video but as a person who fast forwards most videos, it’ll be nice to be able to have more actions in the video. Perhaps you can add play some interesting footage or other footages while explaining! Anyway, it was an interesting video and a well cooked steak! (Not a well done😂)
@@googanbbq agreed! And thanks for making this video to show everyone that just bc you shop at Walmart does not mean you can't get quality while saving some coins. SUBSCRIBED!
@@ufumbduck now if only Walmart could open more check out lanes, I’d shop there all the time. They have the cheapest groceries too! Thanks for the sub, I really appreciate it!
Bee buying their organic ground beef it’s almost the same price as the their regular ground beef and it’s vacuum sealed so if I’m lazy for a couple of days I don’t have to worry about it going bad
The steaks I buy from Wal-Mart usually have decent marbling. When I go to HEB, the steaks don't look nearly as good as the ones from Wal-Mart. And are higher in price.
Good or not I still would’ve bought them all. Have a lady over and impress her with one of those, she probably don’t know if it’s good or not anyways lol
My girlfriend and I were browsing Walmart one time and the smell that came off the chicken section obliterated any chance of me ever buying meat from there. It was horrendous
We get hormone free fantastic 16-18oz ribeyes with great fat content at our local Walmart. IMO it’s the store manager that makes all of the difference. We are carnivore and use Redmond’s real salt to dry brine them before slow smoking them to 115 degrees and then searing them on a 500 degree lump charcoal fire. Fantastic!
I’ve tried lots of Walmart meat if the marbling looks good and you like the cut grab it . Ribeyes,nystrip,skirt etc I actually have a tomahawk in the freeze rn
You should try the Picanha from Wal-Mart. They're around $7/lb. I've had better luck with them and taste better than from a butcher shop at half the price. I usually find them by the briskets but not all Wal-Marts carry them.
I haven’t seen that video but I’d love to check it out. I have nothing against Walmart other than the crowds and lack of open check out lanes. I had to get a gas can for the lawn mower 😂
Sometimes it’s just fun to cook something like this. I’m not saying it makes the most financial sense or makes any difference to the taste of the meat.
As long as you have a low temperature zone to slowly bring up the internal temp, then a hot side to quickly sear the outside, the method in the video should work great.
@@dabeln1 I should have explained in the video why I don’t like going. I agree, they do get hate. If they keep getting awesome meat like this though, they will get my money.
The 1st tomahawk I dud was from Walmart n did the exact same thing, salt brine for 24 hrs but I continued salting it during tht time n reverse seared my guests always think I spent alot of money
That extra bone adds nothing but weight. It might look impressive but that's about all it does. It's a marketing gimmick. Just like grass fed beef is. With that being said, you can find good steaks at Walmart. You might have to dig through what's out and sometimes you might not find good ones, but most of the time you can. Buy them when you see them.

I work with prime steaks for 17 years , someone at USDA mess up , that steak is prime.
I agree with you and look at that marbling on it. That it PRIME
Happens at publix for me sometimes, always scoop them up.
Could be walmart doing it on purpose to keep the price down.
Shhhhh. Don't just be telling everybody!!
Seriously though. I cook them by the bone. I put the bone toward the coals to let it radiate heat inside the steak then sear aiming for medium rare.
I’ve been getting my Choice and Prime grades of meat at Walmart for a few years. I was amazed, thinking at first that it’s gonna be crap since...well...it’s Walmart. Wrong indeed. Glad you discovered this new source for your steaks. Great video, fine job.
Thanks! I was pleasantly surprised to find such good steaks there for a great price. I appreciate it!
Probably 8-10 years ago they improved their meet quality and is a pretty solid place to buy steaks.
What’s wrong with Walmart? People are gullible
I’m not a fan of the crowds and lack of open check out lanes.
@@googanbbq come on!!! Who in the he’ll doesn’t like melted ice cream and room temperature meat?!!!🤷🏼♂️

When I cook over fire with MEATER probe , I will put foil under it for a barrier. Works great 👍. Nice video

Walmart has stepped up their steak game big time recently. Nobody believes me until they try my steaks.
Totally agreed!

Thanks, I appreciate it!

I learned so much from this video, I wish I had my own smoker. Oh well maybe someday, great video man.
Check out Facebook market place for a nice used one! Thanks for watching!
EXCELLENT VIDEO my friend, There's a just food Walmart here in Vegas, they do have some decent produce and meats.Im now following 👍
Thank you! I’m always looking for deals and will share them. I’ll be watching a lot of your videos. I need to drop a few pounds lol
Really enjoyed watching this video, especially the taste testing with your dog! Subbed

Walmart steaks are not butchered on site, they ship already packaged
Nice... Love the reverse sear method. Dry brining overnight in the fridge does magic. Those two things combined, you got champion steaks all day!
That’s the truth!! Thanks.
Absolutely perfect cook here! Great pink middle for a medium rare and u couldn’t ask for better result for a Tomahawk ribeye. Subbed!
Thank you! Nothing like cooking over a real fire! Thanks for the sub 🔥🔥
That is a beaitiful thing. Nicely done. I get my tomahawks from Walmart also. 🔥
You can’t beat their price!
You can’t beat their price!
Nice texas smoker. Steak looks great
that is a hot red center, or true medium. Medium rare, by definition, has a warm to cool red center
Yes, it probed at 135 degrees. It was tasty though!
Definitely looks like prime. I would say throw that meat probe in the trash….lol. Beautiful finished product. Great job.

Yes, I feel like they have upped their game in the meat department!
Nice video man, that tomahawk looked amazing👍
Thank you! I appreciate it. It was a fun cook. Smoke on 🔥🔥
Before I watch I can look at the marbling & tell it’s gonna be good.
subbed because of your good attitude on life brother
Thank you! I appreciate it!
Perfect wall to wall pink great cook my brother
Thank you!
wow. phenomenal looking steak
Thank you so much!!!
That's an extremely heavily marbled steak for USDA Angus Choice.
The meat at Walmart and Sam's Club central US comes from Creekstone Farms.
I didn’t know that. I’ll have to research Creekstone Farms. Thanks for the info!
I tell people often that when it comes to meat, it's the one thing Wal-Mart does right. It doesn't make sense, but it's affordable choice meat that is actually good. I prefer Wal-Mart meat over Kroger stores or Albertsons.
Yes, Kroger/ Albertsons has the worst meat in my opinion.
@@googanbbq 100% Very low quality..
Our steaks from Walmart come from local farms that are only like 25 miles away and they all usually really good
Wow, that’s awesome!
Looks like a Holstein by the muscle to bone ratio. Holstein typically have smaller muscles and larger bones due to their breading for dairy and carrying the utter weight. Holstein is slowly becoming a very desirable beef cow
Good to know. Thank you for the insight!
Smith’s has outstanding deals on Tomahawks !
You should try one of their tri tips they are nicely trimmed and full of flavor...
Man, if I can find one! They didn’t have any while I was there. I will keep looking!
Most all meat I've got at WM has been excellent.
Tomahawks of WalMart
Great video on my way to Walmart now
Check online to make sure they are in stock at your location.
I have bought one a couple. You're paying for the extra bone. It is a push on price as they are a little cheaper versus the regular bone in ribeye. Other than that, if you have a dog and want to give them the bone, no real difference.
If it’s good enough for Bixby it’s good enough for me. Looks delish. Next time I’m at Walmart I’ll be looking for this.
i like to score steaks, 1/4 inch crosshatch, extra surface area. 1/8 inch deep
How do you feel like that enhances the flavor or texture? That is the first I have heard of anyone doing that to a steak so you have me intrigued.
The last tomahawk steak l bought was $78.00, and yours looked about the same size. Thanks for the info.
To me, it tasted just as good as a lot more expensive steaks I have bought before.
Just look for good marbling! Thanks for sharing.

Dude! I need your Wmart in my neck od the woods!
They have had some good stuff lately! Thanks for stopping by! I enjoyed the live stream last night.
You should try the Picanha from Wal-Mart. They're around $7/lb. I've had better luck with them and taste better than from a butcher shop at half the price. I usually find them by the briskets but not all Wal-Marts carry them.
I’m going to be sampling all of Walmart’s meat now. Picanha is on the list as well as wagyu. It’s my new favorite place, even over Costco!
truly an art.
It look nice place, thank you for sharing
Oh and i never had a tomahawk from a restaurant before so i no comparison but it was good if your Walmart has one pick it up
Great video. What temp do you pull the steak off anticipating that the steak will continue to cooking when you pull it off to rest?
I believe I pulled this one off at 128 degrees and it carried over to 135. I usually try to pull it 10 degrees under my target temp.
I buy them cuz they aren’t too expensive, pretty good too
Yes, they do make a good presentation!
Dude sounds like that Onion video where everyone lies about why they are at walmart. Lolol
I haven’t seen that video but I’d love to check it out. I have nothing against Walmart other than the crowds and lack of open check out lanes. I had to get a gas can for the lawn mower 😂

Here you go: th-cam.com/video/repxFQXVsHc/w-d-xo.html
It’s astonishing to me that people will spend extra for bone weight where it offers nothing to the beef.
Sometimes it’s just fun to cook something like this. I’m not saying it makes the most financial sense or makes any difference to the taste of the meat.
Just Subscribed. Just Seasoned and Fired up the Pro Deluxe Xl. No side box. Haven't did a Tomahawk yet. the offset technique should work the same?
As long as you have a low temperature zone to slowly bring up the internal temp, then a hot side to quickly sear the outside, the method in the video should work great.
New sub, love the content. Bixby wants more, I agree
Thank you! She enjoyed it for sure!
Beautiful steak fella
Just a quick question What in the world were you doing inside a Walmart to even look for a Tomahawk Steak? 😂
I had to get a gas can and figured I would check out the meat department. It was worth the walk across the store lol.
What's wrong with Walmart?
Nothing, I just don’t like the crowds. I don’t enjoy shopping at Costco either for the same reason but will occasional stock up with the meats!
@@googanbbq Walmart gets a lot of undue hate.

Can’t beat the price for the quality!
@@googanbbq yep as long as u look for marbling u can find a good steak anywhere
Walmart must hell on their suppliers.
I would have taken probe out.... gotten fire as hot as possible and Seared the hell outta the Ribeye to get a medium internal finish
Yes, i wish the fire was a little hotter. I did end up removing the probe to finish it off.
I love when people have to justify being at walmart. Like it's okay we all shop at walmart. The only reason I don't is my city doesn't have any lol
That extra bone adds nothing but weight. It might look impressive but that's about all it does. It's a marketing gimmick. Just like grass fed beef is. With that being said, you can find good steaks at Walmart. You might have to dig through what's out and sometimes you might not find good ones, but most of the time you can. Buy them when you see them.
For only $21 ??!! That would $65 - $75 in California.
Yes, it was a good price. I’m on the East coast though.
Where u stay so I can grab 1 n VA I never seen it
man that is a good looking piece of meat for $20. cooked nicely too. probably one of the most perfect steaks
I agree. I was pleasantly surprised.
Where did you get those gloves? Haven’t seen before, very nice
I bought them from Amazon but looks like they are sold out at the moment 🙁
Ah. Thanks
