Re-stocking on Pork !!!

We butchered a pig this week and will be restocked at the Indoor winter farm market satuday the 12.

ALSO, The Free Market on Wisconsin Ave. in Appleton will be re-stocking on our pork on Saturday morning before the farm market, Nov 12.

Due to the deer hunting season, this was the last time my butcher could do a pig.  Now he cleans everything up to get ready for processing deer.  He will return to regular butchering on Dec 5.  So, I have several pigs going in then.

In the mean time, the BACON supply will be limited and I have already been taking orders for rexerving bacon for pick up on the 19th at the farm market.  If you would like to reserve some, email me at

Hello from
Venneford Farm Country Meats

Our booth is just inside the main entrance across the room from the escalators.

See below for what is new at my booth this week.

Up Coming Dates !!

On the Farm. 

We butchered a pig this week.  And we will be butchering more on Dec. 5.  We have a couple of half pigs available.  You can have it cut and packaged the way you want and it is a savings over buying by the package.  For more info, send me an email.

We also have openings for quarters and halves of BEEF in January and February.

At Our Booth

 

Samples:  This week, Garlic Bologna sliced lunch meat.  The garlic ring bologna is the same, just in a ring.  Our bologna is All Beef.  Made with our Prime ground chuck.

Specials:  My special this week is

10% OFF each package

of Top Sirloin Steak

they are in 6 to 9 oz. individual steaks.  If you are trying to eat more healthy, they say the piece of meat should be about the size of a deck of cards, or fit in the palm of your hand.  These tasty steaks are just that, nice and small.

Re-Stocking: 

My butcher is getting the pig cut and wrapped this week so I can pick it up after work on Friday, so, I will be restocked on pork this weekend.  For a full listing of pork cuts check out my blog at www.vennefordfarmcountrymeats.blogspot.com

The bacon and braunschweiger will not be ready until the following week.

Cheeseburger Bread
 
 

How do you offer warm cheeseburgers at a potluck without a grill or skillet? Bake them in a loaf, of course! At the potluck, simply slice the loaf into individual servings for dipping in ketchup or mustard.

RECIPE INGREDIENTS:
	1 pound lean ground beef
	1/2 teaspoon salt
	1/4 teaspoon pepper
	1/4 cup olive oil
	1 small onion, chopped
	1 small garlic clove, minced
	1 (16-ounce) box hot-roll mix (we used Pillsbury)
	1 1/4 cups warm water
	10 slices American cheese or your favorite cheese

Heat the oven to 375° F. Brown the beef in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Drain off the fat and stir in the salt and pepper. Transfer the beef to a bowl and set it aside.
2. Heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil in the skillet and sauté the onion and garlic for about 1 1/2 minutes. Stir in the beef.
3. In a large bowl, combine the roll mix, water, and 2 tablespoons of the olive oil. Stir until the dough is formed. Turn it out onto a floured surface and knead it for 5 minutes. Line a 10- by 15-inch cookie sheet with parchment paper and lightly grease the paper. Place the dough on the sheet, cover it with a kitchen towel, and let it rest for 5 minutes.
4. Press the dough out to the edges of the cookie sheet and slice it lengthwise to create two 5- by 15-inch rectangles. Sprinkle the beef mixture over the two doughs and top it with the slices of American cheese.
5. Fold over about 1 inch of the short ends, then roll up each rectangle the long way to create 2 loaves. Pinch the ends closed. Reposition the loaves so they're evenly spaced on the cookie sheet and brush the tops with the remaining olive oil. Bake for 20 minutes or until golden brown. Let the loaves cool for about 7 minutes before slicing. Makes 24 servings.
