Economy-Inspired Menu Changes
I can't believe no one has mentioned an Aldi if it might be available in your area it's a fantastic inexpensive grocery store. Also Food Depot (if available) is known for their inexpensive meats and good cuts.
Another very easy very good way to cook tougher cuts is the crock pot. Especially with the weather changing it's a great way to slow cook tougher cuts. Check http://www.beefitswhatsfordinner.com/ to learn more about the cuts of beef and the best ways of cooking them. Then check out http://www.theotherwhitemeat.com/ for pork cuts and cooking ideas.
The whole chicken idea is always a good one, I make 2 then take the meat and make either a chicken soup, sandwiches, or a noodle casserole with the leftovers.
Big City Slider Station Works Almost As Well as in its Infomercial
I think I'd atomatically spray it with a non-stick like Pam or something? Did you try this and no luck?
What type of buns would you use for the at-home slider anyway? A dinner roll (gasp)? Bakery potato rolls??

There's a fantastic website/blog out there that does tons of recipes for the crockpot. She's been featured on Rachel Ray's show and gives a good review of the recipes (not all are hits). She also has 2 kids and it's nice to get that point of view.
Personally I use my crockpot as much as humanly possible. It's a no fail. I have the Fix-it And Forget-It cookbook and many recipes you make in the oven or on stovetop can be converted for the crockpot.
