Is This the End of Western Medicine?
You may have heard about the coming "antibiotic apocalypse" in the news media over the past few weeks.
It turns out that researchers in China have discovered bacteria in pigs and humans that are now resistant to carbapenems - the most powerful group of antibiotics known.
And they're telling you it's the end of Western medicine as we know it... that soon you won't be able to have the surgery you need... that mainstream cancer treatments will kill you... that even a simple scratch might mean the end of your life.
I've only got one thing to say about this: Hogwash!

| Plain Slow Roasted
Shredded Beef |
"Perfect! Tender Meat! Versatile!"
Thank you so much for offering this plain version of slow roasted beef that's wonderful and tender! Not overcooked. It saves me time and lets me prepare yummy and healthy meals faster adding my own seasoning of choice. Wonderful for people with allergies who need to be careful with seasoning. I will purchase it again and again!!!

When it comes to the porcine popularity contest, pork sirloin roast rarely gets its due... It's no contender to the ever-popular pork shoulder, which is typically used to make classic "pulled" pork. Pork sirloin roast is one of those cuts of meat that can be all too easy to ruin. With its low fat content and ample protein, the typical result is dry "cottony" meat that requires extensive use of fatty sauces or gravy to make it palatable. But I'm here to tell you that pork sirloin roast is an unsung hero! With the right preparation (which I'll show you below), it can be transformed into one of the most delicious and inexpensive healthy meals your family could enjoy.

Ingredients:
- 1 4lb. pasture-raised pork sirloin
- 1 Tbsp. dried rosemary
- 2 tsp. garlic powder
- 1 Tbsp. fennel seeds
- 2 tsp. fine sea salt
- ½ tsp. freshly ground black pepper
- 3 Tbsp. pastured duck fat (or coconut oil, tallow or pork lard)
- 3 cups organic chicken stock
- ½ cup dry white wine (or lemon juice)
Directions:
- In a blender or magic bullet, grind the fennel, garlic, rosemary, salt and pepper to a
fine powder. - Place pork sirloin roast roast on a large piece of cellophane. Sprinkle seasoning all over and rub into the meat. Wrap in cellophane and refrigerate six hours to overnight to infuse with flavor.
- Remove pork from cellophane and cut into large chunks (3 ounces each).
- Heat the duck fat in a large Dutch oven.* When the fat shimmers, add pork chunks in batches. Do NOT crowd the pan - this will result in steaming, not searing. Sear two minutes per side. Transfer seared pork to a plate and continue with the remaining pork.
- Add all of the seared pork back to the Dutch oven and turn heat down to low or simmer.
- Add the stock and the wine. Stir with a wooden spoon to deglaze the pot. The liquids should come just up to the halfway point of the meat. Cover and simmer, undisturbed, for three hours.
- NOTE: If you don't have a Dutch oven, use a slow cooker for step two of the braising. Simply sear the meat in a sauté pan or skillet, and then transfer the seared meat to the ceramic insert of your slow cooker. Add the broth and wine to the sauté pan to scrape up the fond (or brown bits) from the sautéing step, then pour over the meat in the slow cooker. Typically the "high" setting on a slow cooker translates to about 195 degrees. This may mean you will need to cook the pork sirloin roast longer than if you used a true Dutch oven, but the end result of both cooking methods will be moist and fork tender.
