Where's the beef?



Almost a year and a half ago I put my husband and I on the South Beach diet and saw great results. This lead to muy quest for better food choices for my family. Exploring more vegetarian menues, trying to go as "non- processed" as possbile in all of our meals, etc..
Lucky for me I have some great like-minded friends to mentor me on this journey. One of them had a connection to a farm that sells organic beef and pork. Literally you tell them when you want the cow and they will slaughter and prepare it for that date as long as you give them enough advance notice.
We went in on an 1/8 of the cow and were so very pleased with what we received. Just about every cut imaginable wrapped in white paper and labeled with cut and poundage.
What a difference in the taste!! Amazing!! And a bonus, the dog loved the bones that came with it.
We are hoping to order another cow along the Nov. time frame, so if you are interested in a portion let us know and we'll hook you up!

Yipee for you! We've been eating homegrown beef since we moved back to Idaho, and I swear I can never go back to grocery store meat! ...and don't you just LOVE seeing it all stacked up in your freezer!?! I'm a geek I get so excited.
