Dollar Tree Ribeye Steaks, my experience recipe included

I've tried a few food items from dollar tree. The one I was most shocked by was the ribeye steak. I used them for steak & cheese subs. Compared to other similar products, they are great value $1 vs. $5-7 for Steak'ums in my area. The taste is good again very close to Steak'ums. Overall I was very pleased with my experience and would recommend.

2 Dollar Tree ribeye steaks
1/4 cup Mozzarella cheese shredded
1/4 cup Onion chopped (I prefer red onions)
1/4 cup Green Pepper chopped
2 oz. Mushrooms sliced or chopped
1/8 cup water
Salt & Pepper to taste
1 6-8 inch Sub bun

Preheat your oven to 350 fahrenheit/175 Celsius. Place steaks in large pan on Med-Low heat add water, onions, green peppers, salt, pepper and cover. Check frequently turn steaks over once top starts to brown. Remove pan from heat. Coarsely chop steaks. Place steak on bottom half of sub bun add cheese and bake in oven until cheese begins to brown.

Gonna try this tonight

I just want to know what cut of meat is the "Steakum?"
Otherwise, sounds like a tasty sammie mate.

According to inventor Gene Gagliardi, Steak-umm was created after putting beef through a grinder multiple times, mixing and molding it, freezing it, softening it, then ultimately slicing it. Source

Just makes you want to run out and buy some, doesn't it?

agustus you left out the rest

In the 2012 lawsuit, Judge Lawrence Stengel described the product as "chopped and formed emulsified meat product that is comprised of beef trimmings left over after an animal is slaughtered and all of the primary cuts, such as tenderloin, filet, and rib eye, are removed. . . . The emulsified meat is pressed into a loaf and sliced, frozen and packaged.

I left it out intentionally because I was worried about getting a T&C violation for posting things that are 'graphic in nature'.

I think I may report your post, it nauseates me.

Thanks for posting this. It sounds good. I'd seen them on previous visits but put off buying them. Now I guess I will.

Right...so the original " pink slime"

their fish fillets aren't half bad, either. I get them and use them for quick dinners...or to look fancy when I've got company coming for dinner. throw on some pesto and a side of Alfredo...POOF! classy! lol

nice

seriously though

why would a person buy a steak from dollar tree? i dont get it

I'm not knocking OP either, but as a personal trainer, what I put into my body is very important and i would never eat a dollar steak or recommend it to anyone.

a reply to: Trueman

No sorry, you're right. I didn't mean to sound like a douchebag. I've been homeless before. I know tough times.

I just meant in general, if you have the choice and the means to, I would never recommend dollar steak.

Do not let anyone bug you about getting them at the dollar tree. I personally buy my stakes at a market here in So Cali called Stater Bros, fantastic meat, fantastic sales, cut fresh daily.


Clearly you are not going all out and grilling em serving them alone as a steak, instead you make yummy sandwiches with them!! I will try this perhaps tonight. It sounds like you do with the Ribeye what I do with roast beef, and its super good... the only difference is I also make au jus with my sandwiches, I add a little to the bun then the meat and cheese.

I will be right next to dollar tree today, I am going to see if they have them!!!! Some of these people on ATS are just ignorant. I bet you the Ribeye you get at Dollar tree is MUCH better than steak um meat, which I do not buy because they are expensive for what you get, and now that I know how they make em, well I just wont buy em!!!!

I worked at advanced food (producers of steakums) and and it is just sliced and formed sirloin. Actually one of the better products they made... Now the chicken products, yeah mainly frozen chicken skin and mech separated chicken (PINK PASTE)

BUT what disturbed me was the fda approved child nutrition items.... You know the stuff we feed our children in school... The only reason it can be fed to children is the fact that applesauce is blended into the pink paste. So it also counts as a serving of fruit....

The pink paste isn't what appalled me though, its the chemicals used to keep it together... One of which is used in concrete.

If you think being a vegetarian avoids this, avoid veggie burgers too. We made them to and they had the highest amount of chemicals than any product we made... Most fit under the heading of flavoring so you don't know what's in a manufacturered products t.
