59 cents a lb??!!! I'd be having flank steak daily, maybe multiple
times a day!!

I used to freeze it, then 1/2 thaw it (better for slicing), then slice
it thin, put it in ziplocks, and add Worstchestershire, paprika, black
pepper, crushed garlic and dried sweet basil. Then I'd seal the
ziplocks, mix it a little and freeze them, then put them frozen in my
cooler (triple ziplocked, as they were pungent as all get-out!) while
I was living in my Caravan down my the river!

Breakfast: Eggs over easy and marinated flank steak!! YUM!!!!
