The Bard said it best in his play "Twelfth Night"
"If music be the food of love, play on"
Let's skew his meaning a bit and see just where the love of food and the love of music takes us.

Meat My New Obsession (Vegans Beware)
I have a Costco card, good knives, freezer space, and enough time on my hands to try some of the tips these guys offer
I gave up my Costco card several years ago. But, I've cut up whole chickens and ground my own meat (in a hand cranked grinder my mother had). I've never tried cutting brisket like that, though.
I have a cast iron grinder that was my grandmothers. I have used it often but it is insanely hard to clean (It is hand cranked also) so I tend to forget about using it and just grind in my food processor. When I was a teen it was always my job to break down the chickens. I only put that video up because most of the Bearded Butchers videos are breaking down whole hogs or sides of beef. I do find that interesting but the chances of me butchering a whole side of anything other than fish or fowl are slim to none.
The salmon is very impressive (although I don't think I'll be having a go). That being said, I think I could fairly easily become vegetarian so I doubt I'm their target audience! Do post a few pictures if you have a try!
To be honest though we do eat meats, our portions are very small. My main interest is to have thing portioned to our liking and to save a few coins at the same time.
Hey y'all thanks for leaving a comment. They are much appreciated. I read them all and do my best to respond to them, except for trolls or spam and I delete those suckers forever.
Love it!
ReplyDeleteI love the idea of saving money on things we want.
DeleteI absolutely love beef briskets!
ReplyDeleteTo be honest, the whole brisket might be the only thing I ever try. When the weather is a little cooler I want to smoke a whole brisket.
DeleteGood luck!
ReplyDeleteI may or may not try some/any of this but it is fun watching and learning.
DeleteI am triggered!!
ReplyDeleteHahahahahahaha!
DeleteHave fun.
ReplyDeleteLearning something new and different is always fun for me, even if I never use it.
DeleteMy middle name is Carnivore.
ReplyDeleteThen this is definitely for you!

I want the Meat vacuum sealer! I love your new endeavor.
ReplyDeleteYou might want to buy a food saver. The vacuum function on it is basically the same.
DeleteOh, a food saver would be what I would get.

ReplyDeleteIT is definitely something to think about.
