Which steak should I buy?

So many steaks to choose from, but which is best for you and your family? Which would Dad love best? How about your kids? Looking for date night ideas? Money is tight, but you still have to eat....which is the most economic cut?

We hear you. As a former vegetarian, it took me a long while to figure out which steak was which. As far as I knew, a steak was a steak, but I know now that that is certainly NOT the case.

Some are leaner, some are fatter. Fat is good! Fat helps make the meat more tender and adds nutrients and flavor to the steak. That's why America loves ribeyes as the sort of "staple" steak.

Lean can be good, too. Tenderloin filet, though lean, comes from a very, naturally tender portion of the beef because it isn't worked like other parts of the beef are and doesn't contain much connective tissue, making it a prized cut for date nights.

Of course, there's family time, too. A simple cube steak or a top sirloin steak can go a LONG way for a delicious family friendly meal that everyone will love.

How we raise pastured turkeys for Thanksgiving

Midsummer, our farm welcomes hundreds of day old turkey chicks. From there, we raise them in the brooder until they are old enough to graze the rest of their lives on pasture. If you've never gotten the chance to come out to the farm to see them on pasture yourself, watch our 5 minute video here. It really is an impressive sight to see!
