[...] that's my bone stock reduced with a good amount of butter. Needless to say it was excellent. Last time I did Bavette, we had leftovers. Not this time. Bea & I finished it off. Also, if you look at that last [...]

Steven,
I only ordered from Slanker once and it was good. Lack of ethics? Please share. Always looking to learn….

US wellness is mainly locally sourced

Some of their items are from New Zealand ( Tasmania ) where they’ve been doing grass fed beef forever. I’ve had some od those cuts and actually prefer them to the US stuff

I’ve had very bad experiences with Slanker in terms of the quality of his product, the poor shipping methods ( US Wellness does next day air at the same prices ) and his lack of ethics

LaCense is pricey, but it’s taste is very very good. People seem to like US Wellness, but from what I can tell most of it comes from outisde the country.

Shanker in Texas is also good.

Thanx for clearing that up !! The thing is that i thought that some amount of carbohydrates low in glycemic index such as green cabbage, brocoli and brussel sprouts was good in low-carb diets.

But i guess that we can follow a diet without any carbohydrates and get our glucose that the body needs for energies from the protein and fat we eat.

Thanks, have a nice day

@ 14.50, it might be cheaper than Lacenses other steaks, but it is by no means cheap

US Wellness is much cheaper . I’ve found a local grass fed rancher and he’s @ 10 for flank/skirt steaks

I’m sure in the San Jose area you’d be able to find local/cheaper alternatives

To All,

Any recommendations on how to cook flap meat? Grill, slow-cook, etc?

Thank you.

Can’t really say. Probably depends on the individual. I don’t count or measure, so some days I’m zero carb, some maybe 15-30, and some perhaps as much as 100 or so.

Hi, i have a question. Do you think that the less carbohydrates we eat in the day, the easier it will be for us to burn fat? and to get more muscular? I mean can we burn fat more efficiently by ingesting 10 to 15 grams of carbohydrates a day compared to taking 60 grams of carbohydrates a day?

Because remember that some low-carb diets are divided into 2 kinds. A real low carb diet and a higher low-carb diet of around 50 to 70 grams of carbohydrates a day like the phase 1 of the Protein Power low-carb diet, and the South Beach low-carb diet.

Thanks and i would like to know what do you think

I just had sweet potato (yam) fries last night — fried up in coconut oil. I use Louana brand oil from Walmart for my deep frying needs. Somehow using extra-virgin coconut oil doesn’t seem economically sustainable for me.

Tasty stuff. Thanks for the post Richard!
