    When I started my carnivore journey 3 years ago I first bought individual steaks and ground beef in bulk from my local grocery store, vacuum sealed and froze them when they were on sale. After finding your RUclips channel I started buying sub primal cuts (ribeye and strip loin) from Costco, cutting my own steaks, sealing and freezing them. Last year I continued to buy sub-primal cuts. Then, I bought 1/2 a cow from a local rancher and had it processed. This year I bought a whole cow and have not bough commercial beef from the store. If you want to save money and eat local meat find a local rancher. Also, invest in good knives, a quality chamber vacuum sealer (I wore out my first sealer) and enough freezers. I have a sous vide, pellet and gas grill along with a flat top griddle. I now do 90% of my cooking outside. Life is good.

      @@wordsalad01 My cow was grass fed/finished. It lived it's entire life on high mountain pasture. The meat is fairly lean, but the fat is rich in omega 3 and has a stronger than grain finished beef taste. If you can try some individual cuts from the rancher that's the best way to decide what you prefer. My rancher sells at our local farmer's market.

    I've just discovered your channel, after being keto-vore for the past 6 months. (95% meat + 5% veg/fruit).
    I heard you mention this, But do you happen to have a video on HOW to debone a whole chicken?? Or even How to break down the whole chicken?? This is something I definitely need to know, however it's quite intimidating.
    You explain everything so meaty well!! 🍗🍳🥩

    Flat iron can actually be overcooked to well done and still be juicy and tender, it’s one of those rare cuts that any fondness works

    • @rrmerlin3402
      @rrmerlin3402 Месяц назад

      The tri-tip can also be cooked all the way to medium well and be fine as long as It's fresh off the grill.

    Thanks for this video. Unfortunately here in the UK some of the beef cuts are called by another name so its difficult to know what to buy. Probably need to watch British butchers instead 😅 . Thanks

    Great channel. Thanks for sharing your knowledge. I'm a new subscriber. I'm not sure where to put this, so I hope it's OK here. My passion is grinding the perfect Hamburger Blend. I intend to add short ribs meat to my blend. I can buy boneless short ribs at Costco, but I'm wondering if I can save money by buying bone in short ribs and cut the bone out myself. So my request is if in one of your videos there could be a segment on deboning short ribs. Thanks.

    I'm going to order a half a cow from a local farmer. The processor's cut sheet doesn't offer cuts like Denver steaks, hanger steaks, skirt steaks, etc and he won't cut these "speciality" cuts so I will do it. I don't want all of this meat to be ground up or worse to be taken home by someone else. The butcher said he will cut me the bigger pieces of meat. My question is, What are the bigger pieces of meat in each part of the cow that I should order? Thank you!

    ProTip: when you’re making a “beginner’s guide” video, you should never use the phrase “I don’t need to explain…” because actually you do, that’s sort of the whole point of a beginner’s guide video. Assume they know nothing, stop assuming they know about these popular steaks. Even if they recognize the name, or have eaten it, they don’t know what it is, where it comes from, or why it’s well known.

      I’m wondering if the hanger steak is the same as the flank and skirt steak. There’s only one flank steak. I just bought half a beef and I could get flank steak and skirt steak but there was nothing called a hanger steak. Maybe if I bought the whole cow there would’ve been.
