Coming from the Midwest and used to midwest beef, Florida beef is awful! When we first moved here I did get some good steaks at Sams but the past number of years it has been horrible. I won't buy their meat anymore. Fresh Market has good quality. Every few months we drive to St. Petersburg and go to Mazzaros Italian Market with several coolers. I stock up on meat there. It's excellent!!! I asked why they had such good beef and the owner told me it's because they ship it in from the midwest and only sell midwest beef. Everything at that place is exceptional, from meats to deli, to fresh pasta and fresh baked authentic Italian baked good and gelato...yummmm think I need to make a trip again soon.
