Highland Farm ROCKS! (Or Groks, for the Primal Blueprint lovers.)

This morning we got our meat delivery. 1/8th of a cow always astounds me with how much meat it is! I was pleased to meet Paul - he's the only one, apart from the young delivery driver who's delivered to us a few times, that we've had contact with at Highland Farm Meats, so it was good to put a face to a name.

Here's what we got:

Some bones for the dogs. When Paul arrived, Jeff & Arnie were inside hanging out and they went to the door to greet him. Needless to say, he instantly became their best friend given the bag'o'bones he was holding. A lovely Primal treat for two smelly dogs on a sunny Saturday morning!


Now for the people food - look at it all! It had to be spread across two photos!
All the cuts - rump, scotch fillet, beef ribs, osso bucco, diced chuck, mince, roast. All this tends to last me & Mark about 2 months, but since we're Primal fiends, I'm thinking we may get about 6 weeks out of it. All for the bargain price of $220!
It's surprising how much can fit into a small space as well - I thought we were going to have to turn the freestanding freezer back on, but it all fit in the top shelf of the freezer - apart from the dog bones. Those boys will give them a good home over the next few days.

 Jeff can't get enough! He does make the mistake of leaving his bone if he catches a glimpse of me through the door or if I go outside. Arnie is quick off the mark to steal and and double his fortune in a matter of seconds to TWO bones!
Arnie polished this off in a matter of minutes...
then waited patiently at the door for another. What a cutie!! Because he's a large breed, I fed him a little bit more but Jeff didn't need any. When Jeff realised there was kibble floating around, he came to investigate - leaving his bone open to thieves. Don't be fooled by the cuteness of Arnie - he is quite the thief!

Thanks so much Highland Farm Meats! We've had a great Primal morning, and we're all set for the next 6 weeks with some awesome meat!
