Lane and I purchased a quarter of a cow last summer. Bessie (that's not really her name) is at the processor as we speak. Purchasing beef at the grocery store is expensive and in my opinion, it doesn't keep in the fridge very long. We had some of the ground beef last summer from our neighbor. It was delicious. Friends came over for dinner and they said it was some of the best beef they had ever had.
We put the deposit down last summer, paid the balance a few weeks ago and will pay the processor in about a week. We had to choose the types of cuts and meats that we wanted from the processor. That was a fun conversation - seeing as how Lane and I aren't cow experts. We are really excited about getting the beef in about a week.
The cows are all grass-fed beef, organic, hormone free and come from Georgia. If you are interested in where we bought our quarter of a cow, you can visit http://foggybottomcattle.com/ The farmer's name is Donald and he is so easy to work with and takes only a few reservations of cows per year.
I will keep you posted when the beef arrives.
Come on Bessie!
