Perks of dating a farmer's market manager; loads of cheap/free, delicious food.
James came into 60 pounds of organic beef this last weekend in the form of four primal cuts. Equipped with the internet, a borrowed cleaver, and a rubber mallet, he butchered all four primal cuts and we are now swimming in delicious, high-quality beef.
Next task; figure out what the heck to make with all this beef. Since Sunday was the Super Bowl we cooked up a 15-pound brisket. After all, football and meat are one in the same, right? It was a hit and there was even some meat-mouth toss action.
Plans for beef this week; beef broth, braised short ribs and probably a stew or chili. More to come from our meaty adventure...
