I remember thinking KSS's recipe for pickled tongue looked really good. There's some other ideas for organ meat in there, as well.

Thanks for the thread.

nevermind.

I'm glad I bought when I did. The small beef share is up $50.00.

Beef prices are high and rising. We rarely eat beef anymore. I went to visit my mom in North Dakota, and she and her significant other bought half of a roping steer that was getting too big for roping. Another fella fattened it up for them and they butchered it themselves. They aged it in their garage for a few weeks first. Considering it spent the first half of its life being chased by people on horses, the meat wasn't as tough as I thought it would be. I took a few steaks and six pounds of ground beef home with me. That will probably be all the beef we eat for the summer.

I haven't tried any of my beef yet. It's all in the freezer. One of my co-workers has a 3 meat share and has been very happy with the Beef, Pork and Chicken.

I have just received the 4th delivery of my beef share. I asked for a 5-8 lb roast and then the rest of my 12 lb's in Hamburger. I received a 4 lb Eye of Round Roast, a 3 lb Chuck roast and 5 lb's of hamburger. I'm not sure how to prepare the Eye of Round. Any suggestions?

CC's recipe for Sauerbraten uses eye of round. So low and slow, also it can take some serious marinating without getting mushy.

I've made the CI cheap roast beef with eye of round with great success, you sear it, start it in a lowish oven then turn it off for an hour or so. You do need to salt it for 12-18 hours or so, but we really like that recipe/method.

Todd, do you have a pressure cooker? Cuban pot roast is always made with eye of the round, but it is also always done in a PC. I'd be happy to post the recipe for you if you have one.
