With two little ones we are always looking for what makes cooking easiest. Filling our freezers with bulk packages is such an easy way to make sure we have a variety of choices for dinner! We love that the ground beef doesn’t have nearly the amount of grease from a store bought pound.
The quality and taste are second to none. We only shop for our meats at Blue Silo now which makes planning meals easier because we know it will taste so much better. I have recommended Blue silo to all of our friends and family!
Like many small farms, our meat is sold frozen. Buying meat from our farm means getting used to planning ahead so your frozen meat is thawed in time to use. I'm here as a fellow home cook with A LOT of experience cooking with farm grown meat that's stored in the freezer. Here's my opinion to this common question based on my experience...
"Buying meat from Blue Silo has helped fulfill my desire to shop locally, keep my freezer stocked with ground beef (I appreciate that the ground beef is frozen flat!), and has made cooking easier in that way because if I don’t have a specific meal planned, I know that I always have ground beef in the freezer to make a quick and easy meal"
"I have loved buying the meat in bulk. I have gotten cuts I would never buy and it has made me try new recipes. I never have to worry about the quality of our meat."
