Another month of record rainfall for my area.
 
Every year for 4 years we keep smashing rainfall and storm records. With two tornadoes in the same day to boot.
 
At what point do people start realizing what is going on?
 
We need a super storm to wipe all the politicians homes away, that will get them thinking.

Depends on the quality of your beef.
 
Buy a steak from Walmart, expect to cook it more. Get one straight from a trusted farm, and you can eat that bitch tar tar style.

Well shit son, not all of us can afford the fancy stuff. Also, Idk about most people, but steak tar tar ain’t even appealing to me. Btw, Wal-Mart doesn’t have good meat or even good meat deals except for the prepackaged deli meats. The best places I’ve seen are Fareway, picknsave, Hy-Vee (if you do have a little extra money), save a lot (if you’re on a strict budget), and Aldi’s (another good, highly budget conscious place.) They don’t have anything straight from a trusted farm where I live. Never even heard of that kind of thing and I’m in northwest Iowa.

They don’t have farms in Iowa or something?
 
I got a freezer full of half a cow in my basement. 900 bucks for a years supply of beef, straight from a farm down the way. And I know Virginia ain’t got as many farms as Iowa.
 
Farmers markets, farm-to-table shops, co-ops, etc exist all over the place. Sometimes you have to drive a ways to get to one, but it’s worth it if you’re able. Local meats and produce are always better than anything you can find in a chain store.

They really do screw you at Wal-Mart sometimes. They get lots of poor people to shop there because of the great prices on everyday items but you literally can’t find shoes there that will last through lots of use for more than a few weeks or so, so it’s not cheap if you have to keep buying them over and over constantly, even if you do pay a third of the price of a competitor’s shoe. And the meat is just ridiculously expensive. It’s like Hy-Bee or Whole Foods prices with Save A Lot or actually probably worse quality. I mean, I’ve never been sick on it, like it’s not that bad at either place, cook it and season it right and its darn tasty, but it’s sad so many people shop there for literally everything when you can get better deals by just getting your essentials at Wal-Mart and then getting meats and certain other stuff elsewhere.

I’ve seen how the Chinese cook beef. Ya’ll cut it too thin, so course it isn’t going to be able to be made rare. Damn thing is burnt soon as it hits the pan.

There’s a tiny farmers co-op 20 miles from here and all they do is some maintenance on farm equipment and a couple related things. I’m genuinely curious now though. Wonder if there’s other ways to get some good stuff for special occasions.

Maybe it’s cause I live in the country, but getting local stuff is easy for me. Roanoke’s got a farmers market that takes up 12 blocks. I can walk a mile down the road and come back with a bushel of carrots, half a goat, and a couple masons of ’shine.

I cook a variety of stirfrys, but the Chinese style tends to be my least favorite. Thin cuts on super high heat, imo makes the meat too dry.
 
Flash searing is great when the meat has a slight thickness to it. Japanese and Korean stirfry, with their thicker slices, and the use of more liquids to preserve the moisture, are better to me.

I wish people would prepare beef and lamb in the many variations that they do with pork. Like, why are there +100 types of pork sausages, but I only know of 3 beef ones?

Jesus Christ that sounds great. We got a farmers market here in Sioux City but it’s only one day a week for about 14 weeks in the hot months and they don’t typically have any meats, just some fruits, vegetables, and pies. I live on probably less than 13 grand a year so I don’t go there often, but when I have the money I love to get the Amish pies and walnut ice cream, or the fresh eggplants, peppers, and tomatoes and just make some fucking kickass spaghetti.

A lot of sausages are a composite of more than one type of meat, especially hot dogs. Many great brats are also made straight up with beef these days, though you’ll have to hunt for them in fancier stores sometimes or maybe find a butcher or farmer like Zinct was saying I suppose. Look for for the words “all beef” in bold letters before or after the title on the packaging, often as a differnt version of a nearly identical pork product next to it. Also, I hear the Italian Bresaola salumi is really good so if you can find an Italian market. It’s made with beef round, cured and aged through a special process for 2-3 months and sliced thin, great with salads, bread and olives, or even just on its own supposedly.

Funny thing was how my culture during the Iron Age had an affinity for a raw meat dish, where meat was cut into thin strips similar to Carpaccio. It was considered a benchmark for fine cuisine back in Confucius’ days. But the dish lost favour and eventually became almost non-existent forgotten by later Dynasties. Gradually Chinese lost taste for raw meant, I would speculate it was largely due to how people kept getting sick due to deteriorating sanitation that coincided with population growth. Making the dish unsuitable.

Pork just lends itself better to sausage. Chorizo being my personal favorite.
 
I roasted a whole chicken stuffed with chorizo and cannellini beans not too long ago. Was fantastic.
