Weddings are too fucking expensive for real. It's a stinking scam, all of it.
>>21668295>$5/lb for pork>cheappig one
>>21668295If a wedding is fucking with your budget then you can't afford it and it will probably negatively impact your marriage.
>>21668301>pig one Kek but seriously ground beef is like $7/lb where I live and actual cuts of beef are like $13/lb And when you're feeding 2 people a high protein meal every day that adds up. Compared to pork, chicken is slightly less expensive but I can only stomach so much chicken in a week
Pork Loins are $1.49 at my local store this week
>>21668295>tight budget>weddingYou faggots are so gay its unreal. Get married at the church or courthouse. Invite very few people. Save the money, time, and trouble. Make your promise to God and stick with it.
>>21668321I am, but we also just bought a house so we have no savings to fall back on. I'm not struggling to keep a roof over my head, I'm just struggling to rebuild a financial cushion
>>21668326>two income household>still struggling You've got more to figure out than a wedding, bucko
>>21668330I mean a wedding and a home purchase within 6 months of each other would be a setback to most.
>>21668335Which is why you don't bundle the two unless you are well off
>>21668326We just got courthouse married and put that money towards buying a house a year later. Maybe you've got stars in your eyes about it. We just wanted to be married.
>>21668320I much prefer the "boston butt" cut to the tenderloin. Usually the "boston butt" is about half the price of the tenderloin anyway. One time the tenderloin went on sale, so I got the tenderloin just to try it, and it was dry and tough compared to the "boston butt". I don't see why people want to waste money to buy a more prestigious but inferior cut of meat.
Pork>Beef
>>21668300fpbp, if you're wasting money on weddings you can just livebeyondurmeansmaxx and have prime beef and opus one every night
>>21668295Why do you retards keep confusing loins and tenderloins?
>>21668295This is a halal board.
>>21668352A pork loin and a tenderloin is not the same thing. Also, the way you cook boston butts (either whole or cut into steaks) is totally different. Loins and Tenderloins are very lean cuts. Butts/shoulders are full of fat.
>>21668295I remember back in the early 2000's before all those faggot ass tv cooks ruined it, boomers & gen xers hated pork loin because it was "too lean". Now it costs three times as much adjusted for inflation.
>>21668361you know the more people you autistically teach about meat cuts, the higher the prices will get for people who cared in the first place, right? why are you doing this?
beef and lamb are healthier than pork
>>21668379way more expensive
>>21668335The instant gratification generation strikes again
>>21668321If I’m marrying God it’s going to be nicer than a courthouse
>>21668371Lewd post
>>21668491Jesus gave his in the woods standing on a rock
>>21668491Retarded reading comprehension. Getting married contains a promise to God. It's the most important part. It establishes the covenant
just had centre cut pork loin roast with apple+cranberry stuffing
>>21668375>Americans didn’t start eating pork until I did and they ruined it.
>>21668295Pork is almost the biggest bargain/serving right now. Chicken is closer to $2/lb at Aldi. But pork can always be under $3/lb or so. A whole pork loin can be divy'd up into the freezer quite easily. I kind of wonder if Publix will do the prime rib roast bargains again this Christmas...beef prices are the highest I have ever seen and most of the Winn Dixie (beef competition) is over.
>>21668352Tenderloin requires very careful temperature control. at 135 I move it to the cold side, or turn the heat off and check it every 3 minutes. Once it gets the 140 or 145, depending on how I'm cooking it, I'll broil it for a couple minutes to get a roast on it and get it up to temp.Like all meats, the slower you cook it, the more tender the results.
>>21668362It isn't but what is funny is that if you mention pork on any board, you'll get all sorts of nons talking it down because they hate that yt has an advantage over them - cheap, good tasting protein
>>21668378Nta but people deserve knowledge
>>21668666Satan trips. Some anons just wantvto watch the world learn.
When they do pork loin bone in rib roasts for $1.29 lb, that is the greatest deal. I rub them down in spices and cook till 130...then blast it under the broiler to crip it up. It usually carries over to 145 after rest, and then I cut the chops off the bone. That and some potatoes...world class shit for a fraction of the price of fast food.
>>21668300That's for your greedy whore wife to decide if you spent enough on her to not divorce you in under a year
>>21668295>Find 2lb pork loin roast for TEN (10) dollarsYou got scammed, you shouldn't be paying more than half that off sale.
>>21668300I don't fucking understand in 2025 with everything financially collapsing that weddings are still a thing. Really shows you how much of our economy is dependent on woman paying for stupid shit
>>21668300The key is to cheap out on the wedding and save the spending for the honeymoon
>>21668309Being slightly cheaper than beef is not a good deal for pork loin. That shit should be like $2/lb. You way overpaid for it.
>>21668300We had 80 guests at our wedding. It was $150 a plate. I remember getting angry when my uncle took literally one bite.
>>21668860Your uncle wasted a plate of food but you wasted $12k on food.
>>21668295>12 steaks>from 900gJesus. I consider myself a meat minimalist and that's a bit too small for me. 9 steaks? Sure. 12? Maybe if you're a member of the Lollipop Guild
>>21668309>ground beef is like $7/lbI find that hard to believe. It's $3.49 in my area. Pre Trump 1, it was $1.49/lb You're not buying it when it's not on sale, are you? That's the inflated price. Don't do that. The "sale" price is the real one.
>>21668295>loinenjoy your peasant slop poor fag
>>21668295Marinade that shit next time FAGGOT
>>21668870And 6 grand on flowers. And close to 50k total. Honestly , I should have just banned instagram and TikTok during the wedding planning. She kept comparing our plans to instagram weddings that cost at least 6 figures.
>>21668883Do you live in Mexico?
>>21668963Those were ShopRite prices. Y'know. That supermarket chain with locations throughout the northeast? One of the only chains in NYC? That place. It's $3.49 there this week. Just outside of New York, it was $3.79 last week at Acme. If I can get those prices in New fucking York, surely, you can get them in whatever irrelevant corner of America you live in. $7/lb is the retard price. The pricetag includes the retard tax charged to retards. Just because you're a retard doesn't mean everyone else is. Stop thinking everyone is as retarded as you are when it comes to shopping, retard.

It's 50¢ higher in Brooklyn and Queens but still considerably less than $7/lb: https://d16fzx5hhs0dp6.cloudfront.net/prod/2025-10/client-4573/catalogue-12738059/10_19_z6_r7_pi_ms_000001.webpYou should go there sometime. Many locations have florists so you can get a bouquet for Algernon while you're at it, Charlie.
>>21668860>>21668898Did you spend that much only because your wife wanted to spend that much and what would have happened if you had said no to her if so?I'm sorry you lost so much money, but I really don't understand how that happened and how you couldn't or didn't stop it.
>>21669417It's the guy who married the Indian. Indian weddings are expensive as fuck.
>>21669417Anon, I could afford it. I make good money as a lawyer. It pissed me off at the time sure, but she got her dream wedding and I get to grumble about it to her for the rest of our lives.
>>21669674>I get to grumble about it to her for the rest of our lives.I don't know why you would want that.
>>21668295I’ve cut back on beef heavily, but pork now costs what beef costed a few months ago, and it’s just not worth it. I buy loads of chicken though. Less than a dollar per pound for quarters and legs, and I think 3 bucks for cheap breasts. If you do stick with pork, pork burgers are a lot better than they should be
>>21669674>lawyerNone of this matters because you are going to hell
>>21670010I'm generally a hater of beef and lover of pork and even I think pork makes for a shitty burger. All non-beef meats do. I'd rather have a veggie veggie-burger (I mean the shit with bits of actual veg in it; dem fucks is delicious, bruh) than any non-beef burger.
>>21668352boston butt is like 50% fat and gristle and pork tenderloin is as lean as chicken breastyou should cook them completely differently.
>>21668883Even a few months ago it was on sale regularly for $4/lb now it's $5-5.50
>>21668502cringe, not cooking related btw.
>>21668804You know there's still a lot of well-to-do people out there, right? Not everyone is a brokie like you.
>>21669106>>21670746See >>21669133$3.49 in NYC.>>21669460No, that's me. We didn't do the big fuck-off Indian wedding, though but now that not one but two of her younger cousins are getting married within a month if each other and are trying to one-up one another with it all, she's gotten FOMO over not having had one. I mean… with the money we woulda put towards that shit, we were able to buy an apartment building and get steady income so I'm pleased with our decision. Given the choice between three days of partying or years of steady income, it's steady income for me every time.But now she's kinda wishing my pardesi-ass wasn't so practical. Just this once.
>>21668295>needs to smoke his protein for 12 hours just to make it ediblefucking poorfags
>>21670791>God is cringeOh, the irony
>>21670827You meant to rely to the Boston butt guy
>>21670791It's crazy that namefags have the gall to say that anything is cringe. This one in particular is a bit of a cunt
I like pork but I had a string where all of the pork I bought at the store was tainted with that bad pork taste. it wasn't expired or anything it just tasted like shit. is there a way to identify if the meat is tainted before you cook and eat it?
>>21670838>>21670864Add this to the tripcode filter in 4chan X and you'll never have to read a post by one of these self-obsessed retards ever again./^!/
