Depends on the store you shop at and the quality of meat they purchase. For example, the local safeway store charges approximately $ 11.99 – 13.99 per pound. AJ’s on the other hand charges $ 29.99 a pound but only buys the best angus beef. Then I buy them when they are on sale, generally have to buy an entire tenderloin roast – bough one recently it was $ 4.99 a pound. While I paid $ 36 for it I also saved $ 45. The reason, if you can buy an entire roast the price is generally between $ 8.99 – $ 9.99 a pound. The reason, the butcher doesn’t have to cut the meat into steaks therefore no markup. So the long version – sorry but the mark up is between $ 3 – 4 per pound at most supermarkets.
