    Jeff Schabel has spent over 35 years in the grocery store meat department business. He has lived near Kalispell, Montana for nearly 40 years, just 35 miles from the West entrance to Glacier National Park.Jeff is married and has raised 3 daughters and is very proud of his 6 grandchildren.In 1972 Jeff married his wife Lynn and moved to Kalispell, Montana. He was hired by a new company that did mobile butchering and customs meat cutting. Here is where his meat-cutting career started. After 3 years of custom meat cutting, Jeff began working for Safeway then moved on to a regional supermarket chain with stores in Idaho, Washington, and Montana.In between his meat cutting career, Jeff started a small Montana Made mail order catalog business and then he and 2 friends started a company called Amazing Grains. This company developed a system to oil roast grains and legumes as snack food items. Great product, however, the timing and lack of capital put Jeff back into the meat cutting business.After 35 plus years of cutting meat for national and regional supermarkets, Jeff decided to share his knowledge and show people how to shop meat departments more wisely and get better products at a much better price.The meat industry is changing very rapidly and with change comes new regulations and labeling laws. Much of this is very confusing and frustrating to the everyday shopper. For this reason, Jeff has written 2 books to help the grocery store meat department shopper understand all the new terms, regulations, and laws and also how to save lots of money shopping a meat department.Book #1Retired Butcher Reveals secrets to saving money on Beef, Chicken, Pork, and SeafoodBook #2Meat Department. Everything You Need to Know to Become a Better Shopper.Over the years, Jeff found that the “Prime Rib Roast” has caused more people more anxiety and fear of buying and cooking than any other cut of meat. In the following book, Jeff outlines in detail how to buy, prepare and cook a perfect prime rib roast.Book #3Prime Rib. Easily Master the Art of Cooking a Rib Roast.Jeff and his family live in the world-renowned Flathead Valley. His home is within eyesight of Flathead Lake, which is the largest freshwater lake west of the Mississippi River. It is surrounded by rivers, mountains, and lakes and is an outdoor paradise.With nearly 3 million visitors to Glacier National Park each year, Jeff decided to write a Travel Guide and Vacation planner for the park visitor.Book #4Towns near Glacier National ParkOne other thing you should know about Jeff.....he loves dirt. His garden and greenhouse are his second love. In 2010, he started a nursery called Hard Rock Road Nursery which specializes in growing ornamental grasses and hard neck garlic. He is a permanent member of the Backyard Growers Private Forum.Jeff has a number of new books planned for the future.

      The First Key to getting the freshest product at the best price

      Ok, let get started on our journey with what I believe is the 1st of two things a Smart meat department shopper must do.

      First I suggest that you shop for your meat and seafood at the grocery store in your community that does the most business. I say this for several reasons. First, a meat department which does the most business, normally will have the freshest meat and seafood. They will sell the product they bring in faster. The lower volume store normally has their products hanging around longer, thus you end up with older meat, chicken, and seafood. From my 30 plus years in the business, this usually means that lots of products have been reworked or repackaged and re-dated.

      I have worked in both types of Meat Departments. Currently, I work at a high volume grocery store. We have several national chains near us, but we have the largest sales volume in our community. We receive three fresh meat and seafood deliveries per week. Most of the smaller volume stores receive only two deliveries per week. Fewer deliveries normally mean older products.

      Secondly, higher volume stores normally will have more help and offer more services to their customers. I would find a store which has a Full-Service Counter. This is a clear glass meat and seafood counter which is filled daily with new and fresh products. You are waited on by an on-duty meat cutter or a customer service counter person. If want 1⁄2 pound of fresh ground beef or 5 lbs., it is weighted up and individually wrapped for you. Whatever you want is taken care of fresh, out of the case as you wait.

      The meat department that I am currently working in has a Full-Service meat case. All the meat, pork and poultry is cut or prepare fresh daily. Everything in the seafood case is completely reworked each day to check for freshness and quality. This case is where you would normally get the freshest product.

      What is really nice
