Finally found a local who knows how to finish off a beef. Won't be buying grocery store beef again.
Ain't that the truth. Best part is, the farmer I buy from is young, so lots of years left! We're having to book our processing a year out, and that's with the local cutter hiring two guys to help cut and wrap. I little bit shocking to walk in and see the sheriff's deputy in a smock cutting steaks..... but I'm grateful.
Used to be, 90% of the "buy the beef from the ranch and cut it locally" crowd were doing it to pinch pennies. More and more, it's the "farm to table, and I'll pay what I have to crowd". I think that's good for the farmers and the meat cutters, as well as the consumers.
