The first of my dad’s steers went to the butcher a couple of weeks ago. I was a little sad to see him go but knowing that he had a pretty good life especially when compared to the lives of most animals that fill our supermarket shelves. If you’re going to eat meat you might as well know that it lived a good life and was happy, healthy, and well treated.
Now we have 590lbs of grassfed beef in the freezer. 140lbs of that is ground beef. So far we’ve made chili and hamburgers. I’m going to leave the fancy cuts to Brian. It feels like there’s this extra sense of responsibility not to waste any of it and to make sure it is prepared the best it can be.
