    Super Bowl...beef or chicken wings?

    Could promote finger steaks. Being a meat producer,and a true beef lover,I'm a finger steak fan. Custer finger steaks are mainly made from bottum round so are quite lean therefore as healthy as chicken and in my estimation a whole lot better in every way. To me the whole chicken thing is...

    beware of jerky treats

    As I have said on other threads wait till China and Wahlmart get to processing the chickens for the U.S. I'm fairly sure they won't be any more concerned as to how they handle our food!!

    Whats your favorite Western show or Movie ?

    The real lonesome Dove--John Wayne made a lot of good ones--Also enjoyed the Sackett's. What makes me sad is they just can't make a decent new one.

    Magnifico

    What a task to harness a horse that tall. Magnificent animal but not really to practical especially in this day in time. Used to cuss some of the big belgians years ago. One thing about most percheron's is there is some get up and go in them and one like him would take a good teamster.

    Coming to Wal Mart Sooner or later

    Those good grain fed black and whites bring some darn good money here. They will only be about3-4 cents behind the best beef steers! If grain fed from the start they make a very good grading high quality beef. Yes they do and they never build much of a fatcap. The YG on those steers is way...

    For Christmas, tell those that you love, that you do.

    This is really a topic that should help us all in several different way's. I'm sure as we spend even a little time with those that have and are fighting uphill battles we and they will all gain some big steps in life. It is really the way that we truly are the top end of the animal world .

    Costco Wagyu Beef Sale $300 off!

    I think that grassfed boneless rib is $179.99 a lb. Hard to believe but suppose there is folks that do buy it so they have something to brag about. It is hard to imagine that there is those people really have more money then they can spend. We have a small local beef business and this time of...

    Is it just me?

    I'm in total agreement with you,Bez, I know that he was once thought of as a wonderfull pacifist world leader but let things settle a little and see what true history comes up with. If I say aanymore someone will claim I'm a racist and then into politics,so will shut down.

    Banned from Walmart for life

    I thought that I was one of the only people in the world that stayed away from Walmart. I made the investigative adventure to one a few years ago and decided that they did'nt have anything that I needed or could get elswhere,possibly from a local owned business. My question was and is "what...

    Gallon of Milk

    Very well said!!!! A lot of the younger farmers think that they cannot farm unless someone somewhere make's the rules and will maybe kick in a little money so they can control. Sad,I think.

    Gallon of Milk

    Yes! Milk in the stores in the Bakken is $8 and its being sold. When we raised our kids we thought that the most profitable animal on the place was a good milk cow. Raised 5 kids and they all no how to milk and also understand why. Never hurt anyone to learn how to provide food. As to the dairy...

    Found her this morning.

    We, here in the frozen north country, have calf warmers in our barns. Drag them in and put them in the hot box and leave them while you do chores and they get dry and toastie warm. Who ever came up with the idea deserves at least one gold medal. Years ago it was comman to use warm water in the...

    National Anthem - RD 3 NFR

    Was'nt that done nice ? Sure does make a person think and feel proud. Read somewhere that our president has made it known that he doe'snt like our National Anthem as is to violent and makes the rest of the world think we are aggresive. My thoughts to this is; wrong,wrong, wrong.

    Biggest Cattle Mistake

    A super lot of change in just 50 years. No the weights and gains are a lot more,for one thing. If we had the numbers and gain ability of the cattle of 150 years ago our country would be short of beef but through advances in genetics and improved management we are supplying as much or more meat...
