I didn't say they were buying cheap packaged stuff.

If it is already in a pack it's pre packed. If you go direct to the butcher & get them to cut it & pack it that's not pre packed.

Also I rarely shop at Morrisons as they are too far away

I think the confusion is other supermarkets pre packed meat is factory cut and packed. Morrisons meat is cut and packed in store by the same person who will cut you a fresh bit if you ask. That's why I like it, it's very good quality and I can get supermarket prices and selection with the benefits of a butcher preparing it to my liking.

You could add something like lardons or a bit of bacon after 45 mins, should add a bit of juiciness. Or just include the fat from the steaks then fish it out before serving?

It's a Greek dish with 2 cups of olive oil in so I should be okay :rotfl: but I think I will try putting the strips of fat I've cut off in, then fish them out see if it adds anything thanks.

Its prepacked but it is from the butcher - well it is in my store. I went to get some on Friday afternoon and had to wait until they could cut it, pack it and bring it out to the shelves.

Still swear by my value tesco beef joint (if you choose it well through the clear packaging), slow cook it for 4 hours - falls to pieces as good as any rump, jeez I'm a cheapskate
