| - WARNING! Waldo's prices are $2 higher in-store than currently shown on their site for the meat by the pound. Chicken and pork are now $12/lb.(up 20%) and beef is $14.. That said, the take-home bulk meats are the still the best value per portion IMO.
My $5 brisket sandwich was moist and tender, with a hearty beef blast and sauce on the side. However, I'd say that the sandwich was tiny, rather than small, and not a good deal, in my mind. I read that brisket is in short supply nationwide, so I guess I should be happy, just to have it at all. Yet, if you add a $2 'side' and a $2 drink, you're now at $9, for which you can get a more generous lunch special almost anywhere. But dang, the food is so good.
Individual ribs are also up 50 cents, which equates to a 25% increase in the past three months. I didn't get a 25% raise on my paycheck this quarter, did you? I believe Waldo has confused the terms 'gradual', and 'drastic' in regard to price hikes.
To offset my minor pains, the spicy fries remain $1. Maybe the very best buy on the planet; and what you get is as many fries as I'd care to eat in any one sitting. Have a drink at hand for these.
Service was, once again, friendly.
