    I have stopped eating as much beef mostly for economical reasons. I used to eat steak since I loved it and its easy to cook. However, its now way too expensive to buy casually. I love a good steak at a restaurant so that is mostly the only time I eat it now. That it is bad for my health and the environment are mostly secondary.

      If you mean to cook at home, I’ve done well by not caring about the cut and buying whatever is one sale. Not like, old and discounted, but often the stores near me have sales when they have a lot of something or who knows. I bought a 2.2 lb roast for $9 the other day for instance, which is enough for me to eat for days and is even cheaper than ground beef.

        It’s worthwhile if it’s on sale. Just got to find the right time. Hard to plan around it since you never know when it’s cheap enough.

        Roasts I might start doing more than steaks. Since steaks never go on sale near me
