i've been fine with the giant slab of beef i bought that i thawed enough to cut and then refroze... but i'm not gonna dice with it again... i think it probably helps that i'm spit roasting it and all the bugs are pretty much cooked to death but i should not be so frivolous on a routine basis

i now have a hacksaw for cutting frozen slabs of beef

not sure how i'm gonna cut them up, i don't have scales to measure but i figure cutting ~1" sections and freezerbagging them, then cut those sections into ~1" cubes and those will be poked onto the skewers... i figure probably a meal will be two such sections making two neat skewers

i also need to think about how to widen the gaps between the chunks a bit more while pushing garlics into the gaps... maybe i should just squish whole garlics in there, since that would force more spacing

one thing for sure that i think is missing from carnivore is that - at least for me - a diet low in fibre is one that isn't well absorbed, or at least messy to eliminate

so i'm going to make a side salad - got lettuce and cucumber and white goat cheese, but more garlic in the skewers will probably help too... and even, perhaps i should squeeze pieces of red peppers on them too, those are nice roasty and lots of fibre also

Aren't you meant to cut it up before freezing?

thats' why i got a hacksaw, because it's too thick even for a heavy ... what are they called... cleaver... when frozen

commonly butchers have bandsaws for this kind of thing, or just for cutting bones up such as slicing up chops

Bell peppers are a good source of vitamin C.

yeah, so is garlic, and i could put chunks of onion in the mix as well, if they are cut so they hold nice against the skewer (not sure how that would work, maybe latitudinal sections so the skewer pushes through the middle of the ring)

idk what else could go in there but i'm just gonna go with big chunks of garlic for now

i know there is some kinds of really fat chillis that are wide enough to push onto a skewer too, that would be pretty neat
