Default Porterhouse Steak Prices

I like to keep things simple - some nice corn on the cob, a salad and if
the guests are big eaters, a baked potato also.

The best price I have seen in my area (Connecticut ) is the store's
usual price of $5.99 a lb for T-Bone OR Porterhouse. When they do go on
sale (in about 3 weeks) I will be stocking up. Starwood's sale price is
normally $4.50 lb.
