ETHICALLY RAISED MEAT

• Joe started a company called Crowd Cow.
• Here, you can buy meat from small vendors, you know who produces it and how it is produced.
  • Animals that are treated well and killed humanely.
• You basically are sharing a cow with other people on the site.
• Not just cows, salmon, chickens, and many other meats.
• Serena has a hard time eating meat, but when she knows where it comes from and that it is raised well, it makes it easier.
• Check out Crowd Cow here! Buy your meat here!
  • Higher quality, better raised.
• We all, at some level, want to know where our food comes from and when you buy in the grocery store, you really have no idea.
• There aren’t many great natural sources of protein other than red meat.
  • Red meat & eggs are the two true superfoods.
  • Shawn Baker is an example of this.

COW PARTS

• Cooking grass-fed beef is different — Crowd Cow provides recipes for all different cuts, types, etc.
  • They provide individual cuts, cut combos, and tons of different types of beef
• Some are tougher, some more fragrant
• Vinnie isn’t a big cow organ guy, but some folks are and Crowd Cow sells organs too
  • Be particularly careful with where organs come from
  • Joe recommends browning and coating, throwing in carrots, mushrooms, etc to make it better
• Tongue is hard to find
  • Grilled tongue is a top-level type of food
    • Cooked for up to two days, thinly sliced, then marinated and grilled

PROTECTING THE EARTH

• Many small farms which prevent over-development and pollution go out of business every year.
• If you support companies like Crowd Cow, you are saving these farms and helping the environment.
• Small farms also better in and of themselves in regards to pollution.
  • Less mass production, less pollution.

CRAFT BEEF

• Joe has a book on “craft beef”.
• He learned not all grass-fed beef is created equal.
• Big producer TRUCK IN GRASS to feed cows and they get to count as “grass-fed”.
