My DH works at the U here. As part of their AG program, they raise, and then sell both pork and lamb. The U staff gets first dibs, so we bought a side of pork, and a whole lamb. So much nicer meat than commercial!!!

The only thing I miss of beef, is a good stew now and again. I have found that buffalo is similar enough in flavour to beef to make a good stew, and it doesn't upset my stomach. Our local butcher shop gets an excellent supply. Plus, I can also make a good Irish stew with the lamb. :)

We mostly eat lots of chicken and fish, with a bit of pork or lamb thrown in for a change. Our portion sizes are also much smaller than a few years ago. ;) Lots more veggies now.
