Pretty sure these steaks were £4.29 not so long ago, bargain.

agree, they don't even know if the meat Is or isn't halal. I for one do not wish to eat meat that has been slaughtered in the halal way and especially with the prayer of a silly fake god upon it.

I don't buy meat from Aldi since finding out it is halal and I don't agree with that way of killing.

What tangible effect will saying a prayer "of a silly fake God" matter to you if you don't believe in it? Surely it'll have the same effect as saying nothing at all i.e. null effect. Or is it offensive to you because you're a special snowflake and seek to don your Social Justice Warrior cape and eradicate all forms of oppression eveywhere.
You've also failed to explain why it still is an issue

Lol you're breeding an animal from birth and killing it to fill your belly up, but the WAY it's killed is a big no no? Tell me, are you a vegetarian? If so, you have a case, but meat eaters who all of a sudden become pseudo-philosophical morality police when it comes to how an animal has its life ended when it goes through hell when it's alive are hypocrites.
Also, if it's a prayer of a "silly fake God" surely they wouldn't matter to you?

I agree it should state if its Halal , its actually better for us to eat
We in England are very tolerant of every religion Thank God ( Let this educate other countries Especially French ) To DO the Same

All meat products should clearly state if it is halal or not. Makes me wonder what country we are in sometimes.

Hi My reply is for the person who is complaining the Halal /or Not Halal issue
Halal is actually Hygienically cleaner and better for you are its hung upside down after being killed so there is no blood left in the body The Jewish way of killing the cows is very similar to Halal So let Not get on the Muslim Bashing again
Lets Enjoy the Meat and not Get used by the Media ETC ETC ETC

We have a right to know how are animals are killed just as someone who only eats halal has a right to know. I don't like that way of killing simple as that. I have no problem with people's religion. That's their buisiness.

Most supermarket meat is halal. It has nothing to do with cost. I have contacted Aldi to confirm but it was stated awhile ago on here with a list of all halal supermarket killed meat. Aldi was one of many.

Yes, so very true. The Aldi adverts explain that all their meats are British!! Hence, why other supermarkets charge more!! It all has to be imported. Lots of charges have to be added to get them in to the UK, as we all know!!

try a butchers rump steak, bit of a less pricy cut and ask for no fat and you should get something you'll be surprised with.

Erm Cow eat grass. That is all they can digest. It is why they live in fields of grass and eat pickled grass (silage) in the winter. They get all their nutrients from fibre in their four stomachs. Uk beef is generally under 30 months when it is killed due to having to have the spine removed if it is older due to the risk of BSE. Your Zebu from Namibia which loosely resembles a cow is not adhered to these restrictions and could be 10 years old.

Thanx for the reply. Appreciate it.
I've been getting mine from the butchers at £5 a steak (they are huge) but very fatty. Recently they haven't been as good, so I'll try Aldi

Paying a higher price to a local butcher who uses cheaper imported meat is still supporting the local butchers business though. Maybe he's a friendly guy and people enjoy chatting to him? Personally I prefer a juicy steak, none of that dried out grass-fed stuff from abroad.
wolf47wolf
10 Sep 16#32
to be fair i've never seen the truck dropping off at the butchers, but they're all marked up a Scottish beef. they'll obviously be butchers that play the market too though. fat content seems to be alot less as you can pick your cut. depends if you want the fat to cook through though.
i'll watch the truck coming next time :wink:

Not always, local butchers can vary massively whereas a steak from Aldi will be fairly consistent around the country!

A lot of people post on here that you should support your local butcher and their meat is better quality and value. Last week I was in Tewkesbury walking past a respectable traditional butchers shop who all the locals rave about. There was a wholesale butchers lorry outside and I pointed out to my two boys the whole sides of pig hanging from the roof, when I looked closer I noticed all the boxes of beef were either from Namibia, Brazil or Argentina. So much for supporting local farmers. At least Lidl and Aldi buy British. heat from me.

I always get one or two of these when I go to Aldi and they've always been great. Not as greet as what you would buy from a butchers but good enough for £3 :smiley:

all prepacked supermarket meat is terrible, go to the farm shop or at least the meat counter, Morrison's is incredibly good value , Sainsbury's is expensive, and I don't have a local tescos, all others not worth looking at.
just off to farm shop now to buy bacon & chicken in bulk, works out much cheaper that way too. The steaks you can get for just a little more there would stop you giving these packaged steaks to a dog.

Have you actually tried the Aldi steaks?
I havent had a duff one.
I also by meat from supermarket butchers counters and wholeheartedly agree with you that Morrisons meat is way above the rest.
I have to take you to task about "pre packaged".
All meat comes into supermarkets butchers counters vac-packed.
In fact unless a butcher slaughters his own beasts, most of what you buy in your local butchers shop is going to come to him vac-packed from the abattoir, unless it is a side.
And you cant fairly compare meat at this price with a self-producing butcher offering meat with trace ability and provenance.
Have you seen their prices?
I think by law, they should be made to place chairs outside their shop windows - because the last time I looked in one I certainly needed to sit down!

yes they do and they are very good, often very cheap too,
also didn't notice how small the aldi ones are, which man would ever buy an 8oz or less , that's a child's steak.

do Morrison's not sell them at their butcher's counter. I'd imagine if they do they would be better than what asda or aldi can offer.

steaks are normally 2 for £7 at asda.
they are fine and it's a good deal but I think the aldi ones are bigger

Eat loads of Aldi steaks, rarely get a poor one (but when I do it's usually because the missus just threw a steak in the trolley without looking at it), even then its nowhere near as bad as anything from Asda or Morrison's.
The 30 day aged steaks are sublime too for the money but are nearly twice the price of these.
