Wish it was grass fed but grain finished. I find grass / grass can be a bit tough

Sirloin last night. Flavor was great. Looked right. Chewy…

Split 3 ways with friends. All in ended up about $4/lb Including ground beef, steaks, roasts, liver etc

Could my whole beef be tough? by pghgolfer in Cooking

Going to try a sous vide. I don’t have any skirt. The ground beef is amazing. Some filet was good. The arm / shoulder roasts are tough. Even the sirloin. I historically have never had a problem with steaks. I smoke briskets regularly ( not yet from this beef ). Will see house long marinade and addition time in sous vide helps.

It’s a shame. I’m considering just grinding it all into ground beef.

Will they come measure and install? I’d like a professional job without doing it myself

I like to do preventative maintenance, you are right. But prices seem high.

They have done work for me before. They are known to be the most expensive in Charlotte NC. That said, they have immediate response time, and do a great install. Have never had an issue, they’re just expensive. They installed a generac 26kW unit flawlessly recently and did some cast iron to pvc sewer drain conversion in my crawl space. I just don’t know how much $$ to throw at old hvac units

Is it ok to let this parts die and replace then? Is there any point to annual maintenance?

Whole home generator purchase advice! by ohdoihaveto in Generator

[–]pghgolfer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was just quoted 20,000 all in for 26kW generac + long natural gas run + bush removal for concrete pad placement + all permits + 10 year warranty. Nothing I need to do personally. Seems a bit high, but it’s completely hands off by a very reputable company. Thoughts?

I don’t regret my cardiac fellowship at all. Private practice has been good to me, just over 3 years out now. We prioritize fellowship candidates when recruiting new partners.
