I know this sounds silly, but does ANYONE know of a butcher in Santiago, Puerto Plata(or points east), Santo Domingo or ANYWHERE who knows how/will cut up a beef in the American manner?
I have tried La Serina, National and other Supermercados here in Santiago(and elsewhere), but can't find a butcher who knows how to cut meat that doesn't come out tough and stringy and absolutely inedible. They don't know one must cut meat exactly cross-grain in order to get good meat cuts.
Am I asking for a miracle? please be candid.
Also, if anyone knows where I can buy Corned Beef(fresh,frozen) I'd sure appreciate it. If not, guess I'll have to get on a plane and go to Provo and buy it there.
I'm DESPERATE!!!
