Why is Grass Fed Beef Better for you?

A balanced diet is important to maintaining overall good health. So what could be better for you than grass fed beef? Here is some interesting information.

"Most grass-fed cattle are leaner than feedlot beef, lacking marbling, which lowers the fat content and caloric level of the meat. Meat from grass-fed cattle also have higher levels of Conjugated Linoleic Acid (CLA) and the Omega-3 fatty acids ALA, EPA, and DHA.^[17] While the research on CLA is unclear with regard to humans, it has shown many positive effects in animals in the areas of heart disease, cancer, and the immune system^{[citation needed]}."

So stop by the week of 3/22 and try some, you will be sure to notice the difference!

Lean and mean and not hard to cook at all! Pork is what's for dinner!

The joys of cooking a home prepared meal are made that much easier when you have the quality of meats that we offer! For example take the Center Cup Pork Loin Chop...taste great either grilled, baked, fried. Keep in mind that one of the worst things that you can do to a chop is overcook! Also if you have time:

*"dissolve about ¾ cup of kosher salt or 5-6 tablespoons of table salt and 5-6 tablespoons of sugar in 2-3 quarts (2-3 liters) of cold water in a large resealable bag or plastic container. Let the chops sit in the refrigerator for 1-2 hours in the brine solution, turning the bag or chops once. "

Sear the chops on both sides before fully cooking. This will seal in the moistness of the meat. 2-3 minutes on either side will do the trick.

For more information on how to cook your chop ask Ron or follow us on Twitter @butcherblocklv!

Tips for cooking your BEEF Burger!!

• For juiciness and best flavor, use relatively lean meat (80 to 90 percent lean) but not the very leanest; you need a little fat for mouthwatering burgers.
  
• Keep ground meat refrigerated up to two days in its supermarket wrap (or check the use-by date on the package).
  
• Thoroughly wash surfaces, hands, and utensils that come in contact with raw meat. Do not allow uncooked burgers to stand at room temperature more than one hour.
• Don't overmix when combining meat with other ingredients. Don't squeeze or compress the meat when shaping it into patties or you'll end up with dry, tough burgers.
• To prevent sticking, get the grill rack good and hot before putting the burgers on. When grilling very lean ground meat, poultry, or fish, it's a good idea to spray both sides of the burger with a nonstick cooking spray or brush with a light coat of vegetable oil.
• Never flatten or score burgers with a spatula as they cook or you'll lose precious juices.
• Cook all burgers thoroughly. Burgers don't have to be well-done to be safe — just not rare. Cooking times will vary, depending on the thickness of the patties and the heat of the grill, so the only way to be sure the burgers are done is to make them all the same size, then break into one to check. Or you can use an instant-read thermometer inserted horizontally into the patty to get a reading in seconds.
• Use a long-handle spatula with a heatproof handle to easily flip the patties.
