Marinated in Allegro for 2 hours. Removed drip tray from Traeger to get a better sear. Didn't get quite as hot as I wanted my main complaint about pellet grills is they just can't sear.

Over all 7/10.

    They get hate? Often really good ribeyes, especially.

    Walmart steaks are great. Walmart has a (or my Walmart anyway) has quite a wide selection of meat. Everything from cheap 70/30 ground beef to different cuts of lamb, ground bison, and salmon. Ive had pretty much all the different steaks and meats they offer I love the “higher end” Walmart meat if that’s even a thing 😂

    I’ve only ever seen and read good things about walmart steaks on this subreddit, and it’s been numerous times and also some nice pics/steaks

    Just picked up a 3 pack of really nicely marbled and thick ribeyes at Walmart for $11.27/lb. USD. Don’t sleep on the Walmart steaks.

    We used to have porterhouses available at ours until about a month ago and they were amazing and always less than 15 /lb. Wife and I could split one and both be full and happy with the quality.

    If people are still bashing it its from the original days of Walmart steak lol

    For those of us who shop the steak, not the type of cut and or butcher shop, we can find a good steak at a good price at just about any counter. Good looking dinner right there!

    Last one i got there that wasn’t the high end stuff looked absolutely beautiful but tasted like absolutely nothing

    I think the only thing i dislike about walmart steak is a lack of a butcher or thick cut options.

    I like really thick steaks and just cant get that at walmart.

    The marbling on yours looks phenomenal

  10. Back when I worked 2nd shift, I’d stop at Wally world on my way home. Pick up a big steak, salad, potatoes & a six pack, it was my end of the week “steak & cold beer night. I’d be out in the backyard listening to music, drinking beer and during up the grill at 2 in the morning.

    Nothing wrong with a WM steak

    I’ve gotten near A5 a few times at Walmart. Zero hate all love from me.

  12. Same-Novel-1607

    I used to have those same plates .. loved them .. steak looks great

  13. BeardBootsBullets

    You need to use a cast iron skillet on top of the Traeger grates.

  14. Walks-the-Runner

    Real Grass fed ground beef beats that wack shit any day. Cheaper, taste better, and a wider range of nutrients. Everything that glitter ain’t gold

  15. Walks-the-Runner

    Also searing is the most overrated bs about steaks. Low and slow, no char, rare.

  16. PublicConclusion5859

    Kroger has the worst steak pricing for the worst steaks

  17. alyssajohnson1

    They can keep hating and I’ll buy them all

  18. PCPrincipal2016

    I’ve been pleasantly surprised with tenderloin from Walmart. I say that as someone who avoids Walmart at all costs.

  19. Probably_not_maybe

    They don’t get hate here. You must be new.

  20. thanksgivingbrown

    That’s good looking steak. Not all Walmarts are the same

  21. I mean the one you posted has a boit 90% more fat than I want.

  22. KennyWuKanYuen

    Between Aldi, Trader Joe’s, and Walmart, I have to say I’ve had more worse luck with TJ’s and Aldi’s than I had with Walmart.

    Only like every 6th trip I make to a TJ’s do I find a good steak and maybe every 4th trip to Aldi’s do I get a good one. Walmart has usually been between 1-2 trips that I find good steak. They’re usually sold out but it’s rare for me to not find a good one at Walmart.

  23. ItsKyleWithaK

    I started going to Walmart just for my steaks lol, good meat, decent price.

  24. They have improved since they days when they had an ingredients list.

  25. Second-Subordinate

    You need more crust. But it looks good otherwise.

  26. endless_shrimp

    Like any chain grocery store, it can be hit or miss. It’s all trucked in from elsewhere these days anyway

  27. I’ve gotten some great steaks at Walmart. Having said that, they are not cheap.

  28. Talkinginmy_sleep

    I’ve never once seen a post with someone hating on Walmart steaks. The hate is imaginary and these posts are a dime a dozen. Your sear is buns by the way.
