Hi everyone, it is good to be here today. I was able to walk downtown for some exercise this morning. I feel I could take a nap. I think my body is still adjusting to the new life. I am doing so much better than I could have imagined. I am amazed at how filling meat is!! This month I am going to really keep track of how long a grocery haul lasts me. I still have not finished the meat from last month. It is still in the freezer. Although I do need to get more bacon, eggs, beef tallow and butter. Those seem to go pretty quickly. Outside of that, I am going to take a restful day. Thank you all for being there. Look for to talking with you tomorrow.
Happy Saturday! I hope you are all doing well. I know some people in the group have had some recent tough news for themselves or family members. It really puts the day to day issues we face into perspective, and reminds me to just focus on doing the best I can to be as healthy as possible. To those who are having a hard time, we are all here for you and sending you some prayers and support. 🙏🏼🙏🏼 Just focus today on doing the best you can and remember that food isn't going to bring you the comfort you are looking for.

Thinking about the year ahead can be overwhelming when it comes to goal setting. For some people, like me, short term goals can be much more motivating. Right now it's beast mode through the Meetup this Saturday. That said, I do still have long term goals for the year. Staying carnivore is just a given now as it's my life already so I have to dive a little deeper for me. I'd like to stay in the same weight range but lower my body fat a bit. Gain some muscle mass in short. Gym at least 4 times a week and beast mode at the same time is my recipe.
Steak video for interest. 🤪
Do you do better with short or long term goals?
So sorry guys, my 2 1/2 hour drive home from the cabin is turning into a 5+ hour drive home so I am not going to make it in time to Livestream tonight. I'll post the link for the Dr Berry Livestream for tomorrow when I know it. I'll catch up on posts here when I get home if you have any questions.
Beef short ribs! Yummy! First time having them and especially this style. Loved them! Like a small chuck steak with some bones in them. Nice amount of fat. $8.00 for managers special. Nice meal for the kids and I for lunch!
This past weekend our church had it's annual Men's Dinner. One of the leaders of the men's group has a giant smoker that he got from a bbq restaurant when they upgraded. I volunteered for 2 shifts helping out. First I helped trim 15 briskets, then helped with the smoking for 4 hours the next morning. All together we did 15 briskets and 70 racks of ribs to feed almost 200 guys this past Saturday night. Not only was it incredibly delicious, but it was a pleasure to serve doing something I enjoy and build fellowship With the other men. Below is a bunch of pictures I took along the way.
What's your favorite bbq? Type of meat? Regional style? It's Texas style brisket and Memphis style ribs for me.
