 Hey guys, SheaBear1000 Today we're going to be trying some of these frozen meats from the Dollar Tree See if they're worth a buck Let's cook them together Let's have some lunch First thing we have here I'm gonna get you put down here. Yeah, the first thing we have We got the fast bites chili cheese hot dog. Okay, we're gonna try this This just goes in the microwave This is going to be this is going to be Bruno's lunch. Okay. I mean, I'll try it You know, I have to try he can't talk so Anyway, all right, so we got that Now we've got this It's from pleasant prairie. It's marinade chicken fried beef fritter Okay, so we've got this All this stuff, of course was a dollar This you're just you know, you can you can cook it a couple different ways this one you can It says cook frozen you can deep fry it For one and a half minutes you can pan fry it. That's what we're going to do over medium over medium heat With oil one minute per side. So you cook this frozen of these I have thawed out Because they want you to cook these thaw so but we're gonna pan fry this And this one here the we have the mesquite barbecue flavor. It's from pleasant prairie as well pork loin Riblets see the riblets. All right. There's a couple little bones in here. Oh This is Four and a half ounces This here is six ounces and let me see This one you can do two different ways you can wrap it in foil and cook in the oven at 300 degrees for one to one and a half hours or You can cook it on the grill over medium heat coat with oil or nonstick cooking cooking spray Brush riblets with your favorite barbecue sauce and grill turning occasionally until the temperature reaches 165 so We're gonna have to read the oven and we're gonna have to cook this for a long time Okay, now we have It's from stampede. We have the boneless beef ribeye steak. All right now I don't know about this stuff guys. I mean look at that thing. It's look how thin it is But we're gonna cook them up and see now this one This one is three and a half ounces for a dollar now if you think You go buy me. All right. Let's say you buy a pound of this, right? And you pay for I don't know what it's going going for now, but Three and a half ounces For a dollar for three and a half ounces. I'm thinking you get a better deal if you just buy your big steak So the same way with these things. So I don't know we're gonna find out though. This one Here's cooking instructions. We're gonna we're gonna put it in skillet remove steaks from sealed pouch. So it says fully Fully thaw thinly sliced steaks. Wow say that really fast Fully thaw Finely sliced steaks by placing in refrigerator overnight. This is the same way this one here the riblets This one they want you to cook frozen. So this is what we've done Remove steaks from sealed pouch Okay, I'm glad they told me that Place steaks in a well-oiled preheated pan on medium-high heat cook approximately two minutes turning twice during cooking Into an internal temperature of 160 degrees. So why don't they just say one minute per side then? I mean if you're cooking it for two minutes, and you flip it twice during the cooking time, I Don't I don't know why people write that kind of stuff. So All right, well Okay, first thing we're gonna do I'm gonna turn the oven on I'm gonna get it preheated to what that say We're gonna preheat that To 300 degrees man. This is going to take a long time Okay, that's all right though. Not for you guys though. Ah Okay, so what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna preheat the oven to 300 degrees We're gonna cook this one this one And this one while this is cooking. Okay, so All right, we've got the pan heating up very little oil. Let's give it a little bit more All right, so the pans eating up you always whenever using cast iron you always want to heat the pan up first Like preheated. All right. So we've got that heating up. It's over medium heat I just opened up that The riblets and it smelled pretty good. All right one minute per side flip them over. I Mean it looks good, but I'm gonna check the temperature of that because it just doesn't seem like That's enough temperature seems to be going down. I'm gonna flip it over cook it another minute per side That's per side. Let's go ahead and take this off. I'll put this in here for one minute per side We did one minute per side. So let's get this off of here And we'll get it on the plate as well. Okay, so here's what the steak looks like Right there and this The country fried thing or whatever chicken fried All right, let's cut let's cut this open. See what the inside looks like. There's the inside Really thin I mean it looks about right, but now let's Let's cut this open. No, I didn't season these because I wanted the to taste the actual flavor Okay, this it doesn't look bad. It looks a little done to me. I like it You know my meat medium rare. That's more like a Little over medium. So maybe one minute and that skillet was pretty hot So if I put this in before that, I think it would have been all right for one minute On each side, but it did beep the Okay, there's the hot dog, but it did let me know that the The the fork did let me know that it was done. So let's get Let's get the hot dog out. Okay, so this is pretty hot Now I put it in for 90 seconds, which is a minute and a half because you know, we all know that our Microwave's not that great Alright, so the hot dog looks pretty good Buns a little soggy, but that's to be expected in the microwave But let's try these and see what they taste like first We're going to try the Chicken fried Steak. Well, it's a little bland. Like I said, I didn't season it. It's not bad. I mean tastes like it's nothing spectacular Is it worth a buck? Yeah, that's worth a buck He's a fuzz floating down It's worth a buck. Let's say you're you're a single person or or you know, you a college student or something or Whatever, I mean It's quick. Yeah, and you throw it in there sure But I mean, I don't see how you're gonna get a couple of these to feed somebody So let's let's try the ribeye steak Not bad a little overdone for me, but it's about medium. I like medium rare, but that one's a little better It tastes alright again. Nothing spectacular again. I didn't season anything Is that worth a buck, you know for me no no because I would have to have six of them to make a meal for me probably three of the the chicken fried steaks, but For some people yeah, yeah, I mean the flavors worth the buck I just don't think that's feasible To buy that for a dollar When you can get a bigger steak in the long run Yeah, sure. It's more than a dollar But when you figure it out you can find them on sale for eighty nine cents, you know, not the whole steak But you know what I mean, but so you buy the bigger the bigger steak you can cut it up and freeze it Cut it up in the sections like this and freeze it and then you'll have more I really don't think either one of these are a deal and I'm pretty sure those riblets are not want to be a deal I don't care how good they taste By the time you make a meal out of it, you know Because the normal people normal, you know average I should say not normal that sounds bad But the average person Is gonna eat more than that So you're talking two dollars person. That's four dollars Pretty sure you can get a pretty good size steak for four bucks, you know Or ribs, you know I've gotten ribs for four bucks up at Publix, so All right. Now. Let's try the hot dog Again, it's good. You can taste the chili the cheese. It's good not a spectacular There's a hot dog You look around you can buy a whole pack of hot dog eight pack hot dogs for a buck You know if you look around you'll find sales That's one hot dog for a dollar granted. It's got the chili and the cheese and the bun, but still It's one So I'm gonna share this with Bruno as soon as the The ribs are done It's got about 45 more minutes. We'll get back with you and check on that So I'm gonna finish this off share with Bruno, then we'll see how good the ribs taste I know Bruno is going to love the rib bones. There's a little bit of bones in there So if they're not too small, maybe he can have a bone from that too. So stick with us. We'll be right back Okay, guys now for the riblet add them in the in the oven for one hour Say it smells pretty good It smells a hell of a lot better than I don't even know how I'm gonna try this Q sauce I don't know a little piece of this guy tastes synthetic. It smells great, but There's hardly any flavor to Bruno's getting in the other three. I I mean, it's okay. It's just not there You know, I mean like I said, I didn't season it That's probably why they tell you put barbecue sauce on it, but I wanted to Again, I just wanted to I wanted to taste the real flavor of it and not just taste some barbecue sauce Or some salt and pepper, you know, I Wanted to give you guys a good review The other threes are it's a thumbs down for me a couple things to have you know that that you can That you can fry up in a couple minutes You know for lunch or to hold you over till till dinner time supper time It might be alright, but but you know you're playing on You know cooking for yourself and your wife or husband and a kid or two It doesn't make sense. I mean If you if you eat two of those things a day, you know, that's 60 bucks a month That's that's pretty pricy. You're really not getting anything for 60 bucks a month. I can buy a week's worth of food, you know Talking like a week You know, I buy stuff that Probably two weeks with that because you know, you you make spaghetti or something you've got leftovers, you know You make some soup or beans or you know some stews and beef stew stuff like that You've got leftovers make a meatloaf. You've got leftovers So you need on it more than one day and you freeze a lot of it and have it again, you know The next week or whatever. So is it worth a buck? I'm Just to pick up one or two. Yeah, but to to actually have a meal with it. No, absolutely not you're wasting your money and as far as flavor wise I I'm just I'm just gonna give it all. I'm gonna give it all a thumbs down actually because in for over It's not worth it. I said just just go buy you some decent meat and pay for I understand I really do understand about how food is getting so expensive and and things like that But you know, we got to eat we got to eat so anyway guys, there you go Like I said just to pick up a couple things Okay, but but don't try to have a meal on it because You're gonna be disappointed very disappointed. I mean, you know the camera those packages look big, but trust me They are not I mean three and a half ounces. What's that? That's nothing, you know I mean, that's nothing I can eat earn a half ounces in two bites But Bruno's gonna be happy here. Yeah Yeah, he'll be happier in just a minute. So all right guys.
