Hey Grandpa, What's for Supper? Part 2

[ronott1]

daughter cooked dinner for son in law's birthday--grilled T bones, a really good butternut and yellow squash casserole, homemade stuffed mushrooms. I made bread and his chocolate pie for dessert. We bought a butchered cow back in March and I don't ever want supermarket beef again!!

We used to raise a beef when I was growing up! It is so good

daughter's coworker raises beef---when shortages were happening we got the cow and then a pig butchered--saved a lot of money then. We are getting another cow to get through the winter

I like grass fed beef but it does have a different taste for sure!

Dad raised them on beef but fed them corn for the last several months. Actually is was a mix of alfalfa pellets, corn and molasses

Exactly! The grass fed beef we by was not grained out at the end.

It makes a very nice marbling of fat that makes the meat tasty. That is what you see in the Costco meat
