Details on Zaycon Hamburger $3.99/Boneless, Skinless Chicken Breasts Special for $1.49 a pound...

One of my goals this month was to purchase from the Zaycon Hamburger Event coming up in July. They have a special deal, when you purchase from the hamburger event then you get a special deal on your first box of chicken at their fall event for only $1.49 a lb. That is a super, super deal. I purchased my 40 pounds of hamburger this weekend. I was trying to understand how this was going to work. Now I know. 
First, you register and see if there is an event coming near you. Honestly, you may have to travel. But, in our opinion, it is worth the hour drive for us.
Next, you order your beef before it runs out. (DONE). Here are some details on their hamburger.
  • No pink slime.
  • The beef cattle have a grass diet which is supplemented by grain after they reach approximately 700 pounds.
  • 100% grown in the USA.
  • There are no chemicals, additives or water added to meat during processing.
  • Processed at a USDA-inspected, state-of-the-art plant employing strict operating protocols (including HACCP) and the highest in food-safety standards
  • Prior to processing, inspectors from the USDA Food Safety and Inspection Service randomly sample cattle under a monitoring plan and perform testing for antibiotic residues.
  • USDA nutrition labeling standards defines "extra lean" and "lean" ground beef based on the lean/fat ratio. While not part of these guidelines, the term "super lean" is often used in the grocery sector to describe ground beef at the upper end of the "lean" category (i.e., "Zaycon Foods 93/7 Super Lean Ground Beef"). This ground beef product is 93% lean and 7% fat
  • Comes in a 40-lb case with four 10-lb chubs per case (approximate weight--see note below)
After I ordered, I looked around and finally saw this message: 
"Congratulations! You have purchased 1 case of ground beef in our Summer 2014 sale. This entitles you to 1 case of boneless, skinless chicken breast at $1.49/lb in our Fall 2014 sale! This offer is not transferable. "
Now, that is a deal; considering DH just purchased some boneless, skinless chicken breasts for $4.49 a lb, that is sitting in our fridge right now.  Don't ask. Sometimes he doesn't check prices.
If I didn't believe in their quality or value, I wouldn't be talking about it. Plus, if you are able to find some of our friends who are interested, they have a FANTASTIC referral plan. 
Any way, got my hamburger purchased. Now I need more canning jars. LOL. It is a never ending cycle, which I have to admit I love.
