Meatloaf is one of the few things I will freeze. I make a ton at once. Only
have to make it once or twice a year as there is so much.

It would seem if you are buying it from the butcher, you could just buy a
small amount.

No, because I don't like meat loaf.

I just checked Zingerman's Roadhouse, which is my benchmark joint
for spending a ton of money on stuff you can make at home. Their
meatloaf was only $13.95. That's the Wednesday special, so perhaps
it's priced as a "loss leader" (heh). The rack rate on their
large macaroni and cheese dinner is $15.00. Fancy mac&cheese
(with either some sort of meat or goat cheese added) is $19.00.

If they charged the same as you'd pay to make it, they'd go out of
business.

It is the type that sells to the well to do tourists that come to town
on weekends, but they are closed on Sunday, the biggest tourist day.

I made meatloaf Wednesday. We'll get about 6 serving from it for less
than $8 including sides.

I did not suggest that they sell it for what it would cost me to make
it. I said that for that price you should get the entire meatloaf. That
would still provide them with lots of room for profit.

I've seen it as low as $9.95 but your price is reasonable for a decent
restaurant. In a more upscale place with a fancy mushroom sauce, 18 to
20 may be OK. Once you pass the $20 mark it needs to be called
something besides meatloaf, IMO.

A nearby city is home to one of my favourite restaurants. It has an
eclectic menu with an assortment of Mexican, Thai, Indian and Japanese
dishes, craft beers and reasonable prices. They are closed on Sundays
and Mondays. The city hosts a special event on the long weekend in
August, running Friday to Monday. The place is absolutely packed on
Friday and Saturday, but they do not alter their hours to stay open for
the Sunday and Monday. It's a shame because they have already met their
static costs and could stand to make a bundle on the additional traffic.
They are also missing the opportunity to impress visitors to the city.

A butcher is a place where you go to get good meat and good prices.
Thank goodness there are still a number of them in this area. We buy
almost all our meat from the local butcher shops. I get sticker shock
when I see the meat prices in grocery stores.

A much better price and I'm sure a delicious meat loaf!

You speak of one restaurant. Their choice when it comes to operating hours.

Lots of restaurants in the Beaufort area are closed on Sunday and
Monday. Beaufort is basically a tourist town, although I can't figure
out what it is tourists come here to see. LOL

I doubt the restaurants would change their hours due to some special
event in the city unless they *knew* being open would net them a big
profit. There are a lot of restaurants in downtown Beaufort. Most are
within walking distance of one another. (But parking is difficult and
you have to feed parking meters now.) There's no guarantee of a lot of
patrons after an event at any one restaurant. Besides, they probably
enjoy having a couple of days off after the hectic Friday & Saturday
night crowds.

We have a Southpark historical re-creation section in Fairplay, CO. I
went to see it on a Sunday in the dead of Summer. It was closed.

There is one meat market/butcher shop in town and the prices are
exorbitant. Also, the woman fancies herself a chef so she and her
husband keep trying to push her homemade take-out meals when you get to
the checkout. John and I acquiesced once when we went there to buy a
couple of petite filets. We bought, and later tried, her lasagna. It
was dry and extremely bland. In a word: awful.

I can and do find very good cuts of meat at Publix grocery store.

Tons of restaurants aren't open on Sunday. Ditto on Monday.

Why?

Eating out of McD's ass is not what I consider "somewhere".
