      ​@FerrignoFreedom you seemed not to get the ox cheek amongst your purchase.
      If you haven't had braised cheek before, you need to remedy that. It's my favourite non-ribeye part of the animal. Slow braised for about 5 hours it is really something.

    Hi Dante, Im Jay from Canada and a new subscriber. Just wanted to say hello, and how inspiring your journey has impacted me. I’ve just started my journey to wellness by way of carnivore, and I am so excited. I very much see you as a coach of sorts and am very thankful for your guidance. My wife and I raise Dexter cattle and have become very passionate about the carnivore way of life. We actually have quite a few customers who are carnivore. Glad to see you buying your food in bulk because it makes much more sense. Keep up the great work and just wanted you to know that your story is a big inspiration to us. Kind regards and be well!!

    Up in there Nature coast of Florida we have a new Butcher, Its Central Florida Beef in Brookesville FL. They have many options for purchasing whole, half or quarter cows. What I really like is; I personally buy a 1/2 cow for myself but you can do it monthly. So every month I go there and get my 1/12th of a cow, frozen and vacuum sealed. Breaks down to about $9.00 lb.
    I also like that they actually grow the cattle grass fed and grain finished then they take it to Frostproof Florida to have it processed and then back to their shop.

    Glad to see you buy really quality healthy beef. Glad you are educating people on how to buy a whole cow and how important it is to eat healthy meat. I never buy grocery store or eat any meat out. Upon analysis of a McDonald's hamburger, it contained over 1000 different DNAs. From what I understand 2 or3 are average DNA coming from a butcher. When you buy a whole cow there should only be one DNA. Good info on what it should cost. Looks like you got a great deal on your beef.

    Regarding the outside freezer if it is staying empty i would.....

    Increase the cold mass so not as much hot air can come in when opening and for short power outages there is more of a cold battery.

    I just find steaks that have been frozen a little less flavorful and a little pasty. I know its cheaper to buy in bulk but it's just not the same as fresh cut steaks. When the water in the meat freezes, the ice crystals pierce the proteins and make for a more mushy texture. But maybe its just me.

      If you want our ranchers and the meat industry to survive, you buy ALL the cow parts. Cherry picking ribeyes is not sustainable. There simply aren’t that many on a cow. Buying 1/2 or whole cow is part of being a conscientious consumer. Supporting small, wholesome agriculture, which is going to disappear if we carnivores don’t get on the bandwagon. So nice to buy the 1/2 cow and get bones, organs, suet, fat trimmings etc. ground beef is lays going to be a substantial part of any cow processing so as to use ALL of the cow.

Before my nearly full upright freezer went bad I went to a friend's in town ( of co7rse the town had power loss for a day only) and cooked for two days... refreezing everything. Big pots of BBQ made from whole sirloin tips, I seasoned and browned all the burger...came in real handy when Fran came around a few months later. Of course I wasn't carnivore then but I was a single mom of 2 boys and didn't lose a thing. Now with the lard and canning jars I have I'd do much better. ❤

    One issue with this trend i never see addressed is that the more these specialty sales take off, it leaves the regular joe at the supermarket with ever increasing prices and reduced supply and quality. We already export a lot of higher quality meat and import lower quality. We've raised cattle in the same place and the same way since before the civil war. We sell at the same auction as we did over 100 years ago. I just kind of hate the mess its all become. The other day i was at the grocery store and the butcher was putting out tongue. $35! Most tongue goes to korea and other countries because they will pay the higher price and we have become too prissy to eat such things. Margins for ranchers are tiny, even though prices are high, so I understand taking different routes, but the inevitable result is that decent beef is quickly becoming something only the "haves" can consume.

      Sure enough, at least in my experience. You let them know you want the suet/trimmings, as well as bones & organ meats as well if you so choose.
      *Another tip is I wait until our local store has a sale on ribeye, t-bone orvNY strip, then go back & ask the meat dept to save me fat trimmings, 10lbs at a time. They do charge for it, but only .50 cents a lb.

      Years if its sealed properly. I've had deer meat sealed with freezer paper and tape last up to 4 years myself. These days I don't let it wait that long though.

    Hi. So, if you’re not getting 40% of the carcass weight, what’s missing? Would that be the guts, extra bones, etc.? I also wonder how many meals you get out of that? I read that one cow can be a thousand meals, but that feels high to me. I also see one pig equals 300 meals - again, that feels high.
    Thanks for your channel!

    • @Lonewolf_1776

      The 40% would be the hide,head,guts,bones,feet etc. Also, he's on loin diet and probably eats 2lbs of meat a day, do the math.

    • @FerrignoFreedom
      @FerrignoFreedom  5 місяців тому +1

      I’ve never specifically tried to gauge that because it’s usually a mixture of meat from various sources over that relatively long period of time (whatever that may be), and there are 5 other people eating food in this house and they occasionally have some of this meat; some have more that others. Since I typically seem to eat about 2 lbs of meat a day though, I would say about 204.5 days.

      I've had meat from a deep
      freezer that was still good after 2 years, heard of it going 3yrs...but generally, most people try to eat it within 1 to 2 years max.
      FWIW, I keep my deep freezer at -11° ...

      @singsongcindy8865 4 місяці тому +1

      As long as the vacuum seal on the meat is good and your freezer temp is steady and true the meat will taste good for 1-2 years. We never buy more than a 1 year supply. A half cow lasts my carnivore husband and I about 4-5 months. We also buy half a lamb, some whole chickens and ducks, a lot of bacon and a turkey from local regenerative farm. That gets us up to the 12 month supply mark. We live in Florida and even with a generator I worry about the staggering financial loss if we have an extended outage.

    Just out of sheer curiosity, how much meat do you average eating each day? I think that my consumption is on the scale of about 1/4 to maybe 1/3 lbs of beef per day with four whole eggs on my OMAD diet. That's still very affordable at $10 per lbs. Especially for such quality!
