Michael, find a restaurant supply in your area. Most have a 'deli'
section with the meats and cheeses.
The meats are all whole cuts in cryovac, usually. You can buy whole
tenderloins, whole sirloins, whole rounds, etc., cut them up yourself
and freeze them. You will find that the price per pound is way
below what supermarkets charge.
