WHAT ARE YOU DOING TODAY (PICS)

[Jett129]

I used to know people that,from time to time,would by a share in a cow and get enough meat ,for probably,close to a year. So when it arrived it all had to be stored. I’m guessing?

[goosehd]

@Jett129 Still can do that here at our local meat store/butcher. You can buy a quarter, side (1/2), or whole butchered and wrapped. It’s not a bad deal if you have space for it.

@Jett129 bingo

1/2 of a Scotish Highland to be precise

@GraemeE this reminded me of someone I used to work with 25+ years ago. IIRC she found a fresh roadkill deer and decided to take it home and butcher it herself - she caused a certain amount of consternation when someone rang her doorbell when she was halfway done and she answered covered in blood with a big knife in her hand!

[goosehd]

@GraemeE Looks good!! Few roasts?

[GraemeE]

@goosehd yeah we went on the economy side but under $4 a lb is hard to beat

[goosehd]

@GraemeE IMO, for a family the best way to buy quantities of meat. We’ll do the same when feasible, and pick up chicken and/or pork to supplement to fill the freezer.

@GraemeE it’s…it’s beautiful

[GraemeE]

[SKT]

[Matt]

I’ll be in Portland in October. The week of the 6th.

[GraemeE]

Exactly

[Matt]

You remembered!

[Matt]

We actually just confirmed it last week. It’s a go and I’m very excited. We can go ham on that Self Edge.

@Matt when's your next trip to Europe?

[Matt]

Probably not until the next IH Party. Having a year break in between helps me sell it if it’s in Gosport again. For some strange reason Katie doesn’t want to go to Gosport every year.
