    are you buying the meat from a butcher that only sources from local farmers? If you can afford that, yeah it’s probably on par with what Euros can buy in a grocery store. If you can’t afford that, then it doesn’t really matter if you’re the one cooking it or not, the meat is gonna be low quality.

      Most American cities no longer have local butchers, it’s not like Europe. Many are reliant on bigbox stores for their base necessities especially in rural areas. So it’s not even a class issue, it’s an accessibility issue. It’s the reason why companies started rolling out subscriptions like Butcher Box. You’d never see that sort of thing take off in Europe.

      Yes, grocery stores source food from local farms.
