alright we're gonna talk a little bit about how I save money on organic meat
now over the years I've heard multiple medical professionals talk about the importance
of buying organic meat in organic dairy but I've always struggled with this
because it's always been so stinkin expensive so I've always been kind of
keeping my eye out looking for ways to kind of save money on organic meat and
really I've just wanted to get the healthiest meat possible for my family
without spending tons of tons of money so that leads me to the thing that has
worked the best for me so far so about a year and a half ago I signed up for this
service called Butcherbox and what they do is it's a monthly box that comes to
your door full of meat that you order you get to pick it out yourself and they
offer a variety of cuts from free-range organic chicken to a whole bunch of
different cuts of grass-fed beef to some heritage breed pork which I don't even
know what that is because I don't eat pork, but and they also have wild
Alaskan salmon so I've just been in love with the options that they provide and
then on top of that the convenience of heaven is delivered to my house once a
month has been really really great now I'm someone who loves to shop at Whole
Foods but as we all know hopefully this is crazy expensive so I try to limit the
amount of times I go to Whole Foods but what's exciting is that a lot of the
meat that I get from Butcherbox is actually a higher quality and better
than a lot of the meat at the counter over at Whole Foods so if you've shopped
it to Whole Foods meat counter before you know that they have five different
levels of meat basically quality that they offer and so the lowest level is
basically a little bit better than your average grocery store and the highest
level is basically where the cow is like a pet and it has a name and it's
massaged every day and that kind of free-rangeness if you will you know I
know this differs from location and location but at our Whole Foods most of
the meat at the meat counter falls in that lowest category one level and at
the same time most of the meat that I get from Butcherbox falls into the
category probably about three level so if the meat being higher quality wasn't
good enough the meat is actually considerably cheaper than if I were
buying at Whole Foods even the lower quality all right so before I signed up
for Butcherbox one of the things I was concerned about it how are they gonna
get frozen meat to my doorstep especially in the summer and keep it
frozen and so I'm now in my second summer with them and I've just been so
impressed that they've been able to do this successfully and basically what I
understand is that they just measure out the appropriate amount of
dry ice for each box depending on your geographic location and then it's just
stays frozen and we even had one instance where we weren't able to pick
up our box off of a porch for up to like 24 hours after it arrived and the meat
was still super cold yeah another thing I was kind of concerned about when I
first started with them was what type of meat am I going to get and how much
choice do I have and initially when I started they only
had curated boxes meaning they'd send a box with whatever meat they wanted to
put in it and hope you liked it but they've since rolled out a custom box
which allows you and I to select whatever cuts we want and then have them
shipped to us and then we can add on additional things if we want and it just
gives you tons and tons of flexibility to pick out whatever meat you actually
want whatever you're actually going to eat and so the way my family does this
is we just use this one monthly box as our month-long supply of meat that we
get so not only does it save us a trip to the grocery store it's also something
I just want to think about anymore because we just always have meat in the
freezer alright so if you even in other questions about Butcherbox that I can
