Fresh Chilled Beef Order Deadline; Spice up your Spring Recipe; Dr. Serrano Question & Answer Monticello, Missouri
March 30, 2008

Dear John,

Spring is in the air and we are looking forward to warm weather, green pastures and grilling. We suggest kicking off the 2008 grilling season with the new fresh chilled beef available from US Wellness Meats. For those in colder locales, we think you will enjoy the Jamaican style Jerk-Seasoned Leg of Goat Steak oven recipe featured this week.

Fresh chilled beef orders are due Thursday, April 3 at noon CST and will ship Wednesday, April 9. Selections include a gourmet steak package, burger bundle, roast and burger bundle, steak and burger bundle, and striploin.
Special orders, which are considered on a case-by-case basis, can amend this inventory.

This week the United States Department of Agriculture released a list of school districts affected by the recent Hallmark/Westland beef recall. The list, which was made public on Thursday, March 27, includes 226 pages of school districts and school lunch providers. Although USDA officials say there is unlikely to be a health risk associated with the recalled beef, the news has left many parents wondering what steps to take to help ensure healthful meals for their children. Several resources exist, including Better School Food and The Edible Schoolyard. In addition, US Wellness Meats offers discounted wholesale pricing to school districts looking for a tasty, wholesome supply of ground beef. Contact our staff at (877) 383-0051 or eathealthy@grasslandbeef.com for more information.

In closing, we urge parents to challenge their local school boards to make smarter food buying choices which will ultimately raise meal tickets. However, the savings in health care and behavior issues will more than offset the added cost in our opinion. There is no excuse to be using school cafeterias as the lowest cost consumer of USDA surplus dairy and meat products.

Warmest regards,

John, Lee Ann, Megan, Lacey and McKenzie on behalf of the farm families of U.S. Wellness Meats

    >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

    Dear Dr. Serrano,

    I have a 22 year old autistic daughter who is also borderline diabetic. Over the last 3 yeas we have switched to 100% grass-fed beef, quit buying processed foods, and use as many organic fruits and vegetables as we can. She does get Breyers All Natural Vanilla Ice Cream as a treat. She is on no medication and is stable.

    In your opinion, what is worse for diabetics- sugar or grains? I know exercise would be great for her but we can't get her to walk enough to lose the 20 pounds she needs to lose.

    Thanks,

    J.


    >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>


    Dear J.,

    First, let me congratulate you in your excellent job with your daughter. It is a huge commitment but well worth it. I believe life is a balance, and having an occasional treat is not bad at all. As a matter of fact, when I create diets, I include "cheating" hours or days for patients after they have followed the diet for at least fourteen days. Now for the second part of your question, what is better - getting hit by a car or a truck? Neither - both hurt - but of course one of them will hit you harder. I would stay away from both, but have my "cheat" time with my daughter once per week.

    Take care,

    Dr. Serrano


    FEATURED RECIPE
    leg of goat steak


    Spice up your Spring with Jerk-Seasoned Leg of Goat Steaks

    Jerk-Seasoned Leg of Goat Steak is perfect for a large spring dinner. Jerk, which is a Jamaican style of cooking, is traditionally used with goat or pork. This recipe calls for using the oven, but could easily be adapted to a grill.

    Recipe: Jerk-Seasoned Leg of Goat Steaks

    INGREDIENTS

    3 lbs. of leg of goat bone-in steaks, trimmed of fat and membranes ( 4 steaks suggested)
    1 small yellow onion, roughly chopped
    1/2 cup chopped green onions
    4 garlic cloves, minced
    2 to 3 Scotch bonnet peppers, seeded, stemmed and roughly chopped
    (substitute habanero if you cannot find Scotch bonnet peppers)
    2 tbsp. chopped fresh ginger
    2 tbsp. dark brown sugar
    4 tsp. ground allspice
    2 tsp. fresh oregano leaves
    1 tbsp. sea salt
    1 tsp. ground black pepper
    3/4 tsp. cayenne pepper
    1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon
    1/2 tsp. ground nutmeg
    1/4 cup olive oil
    2 tbsp. dark rum
    2 tbsp. fresh lime juice

    PREPARATION

    Place the leg of goat steaks in a large, re-sealable plastic bag.

    In a blender or food processor, combine all the remaining ingredients and process until a smooth paste forms. Pour into the bag with the goat steaks, rubbing to coat evenly. Seal and refrigerate at least 6 hours, or overnight.

    Remove the leg of goat from the bag and place in a roasting pan; bring to room temperature. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Roast until medium-rare, and an instant-read thermometer registers 145 to 150 degrees F., turning once.

    Recipe will work perfectly for whole leg of goat. Very limited inventory of whole leg of goat!
