That is both brave and strong of you withstanding that presure. That can be very challenging. It is not nice when they disapprove. How long have you been carnivore now and have they come to accept it a bit more?
I know that feeling. It can be difficult. Is it your husband or more extenden family?
If you want to save money 💵 and time🕔, you should buy meat in bulk.
You often get better quality for the same amount of money as in the grocery store, or you simply pay less because you buy in larger quantities.
You save a lot of time grocery , and as long as you have meat in your freezer, you'll always have a meal on hand.
Here is your step-by-step guide on how to buy, pack, and organize your bulk meat purchase:
⤵️⤵️⤵️
1) Availability:
Contact a local beef farmer and find out when the next slaughtering occurs and if they have meat available for purchase. If they can't sell to you this month, make sure to be put on the list for next month.
2) Order:
Place your order with the farmer and, if possible, decide which cuts you want ground besides the standard. For example, you might choose cuts like round or sirloin if you don’t like slow-cooked meat.
3) Getting the Most Out of Your Money:
Some farmers include a lot of soup bones with your bulk purchase. Bones weigh a lot, so if you're not a fan of broth, check if there's another farmer nearby who sells in bulk without the bones. It might be a bit higher price per pound, but it could be worth it if you don't want to pay for bones you won't use.
4) Freezer Space:
Make sure you have enough room in your freezer. From our farmer, we can fit a quarter of a cow, about 90 kg, including soup bones, in our two freezers with a total capacity of around 400 liters. If you don't get the bones, it's easier to pack the meat in the freezer, and it requires less space.
5) Pick Up and Plan Ahead:
Pick up your order at the time and place provided by the farmer. If you know how much meat you consume, you can place your next order now, for next month or the month after, so you don't have to go a month without meat in your freezer.
6) Repacking:
Bring the meat home and repack it. Some farmers put all the cuts in large bags and boxes, so you’ll need to repack and label it yourself. For an extra fee, some farmers will vacuum pack it for you. If you want to save money, do it yourself. Repacking takes around 45-60 minutes depending on how much meat you receive. The first time might take longer, but you’ll get the hang of it!
Make sure to have a big garbagebage ready for the messy bags to be trown into. Also have s few different size ålastic bags ready. I use 4 liter and 8 liter plus a marker or a pen for quick labeling og the bag.
7) Organize in the Freezer:
I organize my meat into categories: ground beef, various steaks, roasts, and soup bones + organ meats. I makes it easier to find what you are looking for!
8) Managing a Large Purchase:
Every one or two days, check how much meat you have defrosted in the fridge. Plan a few days ahead and take meat out of the freezer accordingly. If your plans change and the fresh meat won’t be eaten that day, sprinkle salt over it and store it on a brine rack in the fridge.
9) Save Money for Next Purchase
Buying meat in bulk makes shopping a rare occation but that means that you have to save money each month for next months purchase of meat in bulk.

Question:
Do you get sick of meat? Are there days you just can't stomach eating meat anymore?
My answer:
Great question! I actually don't get tired or sick of it.
I enjoy every meal. I eat mostly 2 meal a day. If it doesn't taste good it is because I am eating when I am not hungry. I don't get tired of it at all. Eating 2 times a day seems perfect for me at the moment and eating meat and eggs every day is a total win. Some days I crave more meat and other days I crave more eggs or bacon or fish. I listen to that as well 😄 that being said 80-90% of my food is beef 😂
I have 3 chickens now. It is not much but they provide a bit of good eggs. Also I stuck up from our local farmers in my frozen safe. ❄️🥩❄️

Agreed, and most the time it feels like people think that I am crazy for think that.
Cholesterol is not the enemy. It is an essential nutrient! It is used for making hormones, repairing cells, and the brain is made up of large amounts of cholesterol!

that sounds like some reslly good fat sources. The beef bacon I get is tasty but very salty so i needs to be added as a spice.
I have cream once in a while 😄 its tasty.
that sounds like an amazing idea. if you ever get land and want to have livestock look into rotational grazing, and regenrstive farming. it is worth it. 😄 i hope bitcoin goes up!
I found out some of my more distent family raise cows. I wanted to visit them to see how they raise them. Making your own food this way seems like the right thing to do. Do you make your raise or grow your own food?

That is great to hear! I live it too. Sad that so few people know about it.
Which meal would you prefer?
I know my pick! 🧈🥩🥚🧀
