[Runningwolf]

I'll even make you a deal, If you don't make me eat the vegetables I'll do the dishes.

I think Dan would be a big eater...better make him bring a case of his best....

 

[ckvchestnut]

Haha! This deal is getting better by the minute!

 

[jamesngalveston]

Never met him, would love too..But I think I wouldnt want to have to feed him...I think he might just have a big appetite...LOL

 

[ckvchestnut]

Haha! All us country folk have big appetites I'm used to it ;-)

Tonight....Growing up, there was little money and we ate more venison then beef, my mom would take ground up deer meat, fry it,drain it,cook with onions,cut up some carrots and potatoes,cube and add to ground meat. simmer till veges were tender.
She called it deer stew.....I am making it tonight with some ground up brisket.
I used some cornstarch to thicken it a little, and will eat over some rice.
Not fancy, but filling and hot...

Sounds good James! We had a lot of venison over the years. Dad was an avid and humane hunter. He's retired from hunting but every once in a while my brother in law gets one and we get our little pkg of meat. We got some nice tenderloin portions last year and it was very tender sautéed with mushrooms, onions, garlic and a nice red wine demi-glaze... Such a refreshing alternative to supermarket meat. I like to get pastured meat as much as possible to simulate the natural taste. Our neighbors raise their beef on pastures only so we buy a side from them - yum!

 

[ckvchestnut]

Maybe I meant simulate the "wild taste" haha

 

[jamesngalveston]

I have been thinking of buy a calf and feeding for a year, then feeding corn for about 6 months, then butchering....maybe two of them...

 

[ckvchestnut]

Ditto! Just need to improve my fencing a bit unless I keep them with my horses! My farm was an old dairy operation at one point, then at the time we bought it the big 50 acre pasture was being rented out to a beef farmer. This place has been organic for at least 10 years with no pesticides or artificial fertilizers etc. I've been thinking about asking my neighbors how much they'd want for a few calves. But there are breeds that marble out fine without corn are more cost efficient to feed... Same with pigs.

Tonight is prime rib Friday night. I have to admit as good as it was, it was still a disappointment. This cut is so big, I usually have enough to take home for lunch the next day. This time there was about as much fat on it as I usually take home.

Yum! We had rib steaks last weekend all the talk of these on the forum made me crave them and they happened to be on sale as well as the prime rib roasts!

Prime rib is the same cut of meat as a rib eye.
