Family Meal

No one can doubt the ease of prepared meals, especially when it comes to feeding a full family. Dinner for four (or more!) at a restaurant is never cheap, and even the prep time on a full table spread is hefty. Sam's Club is here to help, offering a wide array of prepared meals that will fill up the whole squad. Here's a look at some of the retailer's best options.

Baby Back Ribs

Price: $13.98

You'd pay a lot more for a three pound slab of ribs at a barbecue restaurant, that's for sure. These babies are fully cooked, so heat and eat.

Chicken Parmesan

Price: $14.98

Sure, maybe the cheese isn't bubbled and boiling like at an old-school red sauce joint, but this is the next best thing. Plus, you're paying less for six home servings than you would for a single restaurant serving.

Are these twice-baked because they've already been baked once, and you're about to bake them for the second time? Who cares, they're loaded with sour cream, bacon, and cheese.

Jack Daniel's Pulled Pork

Price: $15.98

I'm not going to pretend like Old Number 7 is known for its barbecue recipes, but I'm also not going to pretend like three pounds of pulled pork for $16 is a bad deal. Fact: It's a great one.

Chicken Pot Pie

Price: $3.78/pound

I have obviously never seen your head, but that doesn't matter. I'm willing to bet the Member's Mark chicken pot pie is bigger than your head; it's certainly bigger than mine, and mine is huge. Point is, this will feed a family of at least four.

Cheddar & Broccoli Quiche
