I'm going in with 3 other couples to buy beef. We checked the freezer space (mostly empty), and we are in for forty pounds - the largest share - its coming to be about $278. Fully organic, grass fed, grass finished, crunchy granola approved. I get paid tomorrow, so I will be cutting the check before I do anything else. Now the question is how to have the butcher cut it. The battle is for whether we want NY strip or T-bone. Everybody else wants the strip, but since we are the big share and we want the T-bone, T-bone it shall be. He who has the gold, gets to dictate.
But we are mostly in agreement to get mostly roasts and chucks even with less tender cuts. I'm a pot roast kind of gal. If I have a choice between more pot roast and ground beef ... pot roast it shall be.
I'm planning to barter some beef with our Duvall friends, who are raising poultry. They have a bumper crop of muscovy ducks which are just as rich and red meaty as the beef. We have the turf, aiming for the surf, but we will hit a few air pockets along the way.
